Baidu, China’s largest search engine provider reacted poorly to the recent crumbling Asain markets, as predicted. The Chinese web services, headquartered at the Baidu Campus in Beijing’s Haidian District, has had a roller-coaster ride as its stocks peaked at $251.99 last November, but are now at a pitiful 39.3%. The company see that Earnings from continuing operations have fallen in each of this year’s first two quarters, and analysts see a decline of more than 10% in adjusted earnings for all of 2015. Again compounding to Baidu’s poor performance.
