An analyst at the firm flipped their rating on Nu from outperform to neutral while lowering their price target from $18 to $13.They noted that Nu’s operating margins dropped 760 basis points to 19.2%, and its credit loss provisions rose by 33%, which raises concerns about the company’s expansion efforts -- particularly into Mexico and the U.S.Further complicating things for Nu, its Brazilian-based CFO stepped down and was replaced by former Visa North America CFO Rob Livingston, prompting Susquehanna to take a wait-and-see approach to how Nu’s push into global banking will unfold.Trading at just 13 times forward earnings, Nu’s excellent growth is reasonably priced, but the market seems worried about longer-term profitability.<h2>Should you buy stock in Nu Holdings right now?</h2> Before you buy stock in Nu Holdings, consider this: The Motley Fool Stock Advisor analyst team just identified what they believe are the 10 best stocks for investors to buy now… and Nu Holdings wasn’t one of them.
