Rather than placing short-term price targets on equities or attempting to time the market, Wood's asset management firm (ARK Invest) seeks out innovative businesses that make good long-term holdings.</p>\n<p>To that end, ARK recently bought shares&nbsp;of <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MELI\">MercadoLibre</a></b> (NASDAQ:MELI) and <b><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PATH\">UiPath</a></b> (NYSE:PATH).

Its platform serves 70 million&nbsp;active users across 18 countries, including Brazil, Argentina, and Mexico, the three largest markets in the region by gross domestic product.</p>\n<p>To supplement its commerce business, MercadoLibre also offers advertising, financing, and logistics support, as well as cloud-based software that helps sellers build online storefronts. These services make MercadoLibre's platform even more convenient, and they're gaining traction with clients. In Q1 2021, 97% of items sold were shipped through the company's logistics division, Mercado Envios. That's up from 81% in Q1 2019.</p>\n<p>Consider this from a seller's perspective: If you want to set up shop online, you can either do everything yourself (build a website, find a payments processor, orchestrate shipping, run marketing campaigns, etc.) or you can lean on MercadoLibre, benefiting from its massive scale and reputable brand.</p>\n<p>Of course, there are other players in the region, such as <b>Sea Limited</b>'s Shopee and <b>Amazon</b>. But MercadoLibre's marketplace dwarfs&nbsp;these rivals in terms of website and app visits, and the company's burgeoning logistics service just reinforces that advantage. In other words, if you're a seller, MercadoLibre looks like the most compelling option.</p>\n<p>Not surprisingly, that has translated into impressive top-line growth.</p>\n<table>\n <thead>\n  <tr>\n   <th><p>Metric</p></th>\n   <th><p>Q1 2017 (TTM)</p></th>\n   <th><p>Q1 2021 (TTM)</p></th>\n   <th><p>CAGR</p></th>\n  </tr>\n </thead>\n <tbody>\n  <tr>\n   <td width=\"156\"><p>Revenue</p></td>\n   <td width=\"156\"><p>$956.4 million</p></td>\n   <td width=\"156\"><p>$4.7 billion</p></td>\n   <td width=\"156\"><p>49%</p></td>\n  </tr>\n  <tr>\n   <td width=\"156\"><p>Free cash flow</p></td>\n   <td width=\"156\"><p>$232.1 million</p></td>\n   <td width=\"156\"><p>$682.9 million</p></td>\n   <td width=\"156\"><p>31%</p></td>\n  </tr>\n </tbody>\n</table>\n<p>Data source: Ycharts.

For instance, the company offers shipping subsidies to sellers using Mercado Envios, allowing them to provide free delivery. MercadoLibre also launched Meli <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AIRI\">Air</a>&nbsp;in 2020, a fleet of aircraft dedicated to logistics in Brazil and Mexico.</p>\n<p>These moves make sense, as they create value for both buyers and sellers. But over time, as MercadoLibre pulls back on operating expenses, I believe this company will be quite profitable, as evidenced by its 42% gross margin&nbsp;over the past 12 months.</p>\n<p>More importantly, the company should benefit immensely as e-commerce and digital payments continue to gain traction in Latin America. That's why investors should consider buying this growth stock.</p>\n<p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b56dcc72a43d83ebafcbb16394c9fb16\" tg-width=\"700\" tg-height=\"416\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"></p>\n<p>Image source: Getty Images.</p>\n<h3>2. <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PATH\">UiPath</a></h3>\n<p>When most people talk about robots, they picture humanoid automatons from science fiction or mechanized arms in a factory.

More importantly, they are designed to emulate human behavior, meaning they become more intelligent over time.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2022 (ended April 30, 2021), revenue surged 65% to $186 million. Likewise, its customer count grew 31% to 8,500. Notably, 1,105&nbsp;of these clients spend more than $100,000 each year.</p>\n<p>More importantly, UiPath's net retention rate came in at 145% in Q1 2022, indicating a 45% uptick in average customer spend.
