Alibaba Stock Will Be Impacted by Setback in India

by Rohit Chhatwal

One of BABA’s biggest bets in India is on Paytm and its e-commerce subsidiary, Paytm Mall. A recent report by Forrester Inc. mentioned that Alibaba has refused to engage in any further funding rounds for Paytm Mall.

This is the second big setback for Alibaba and Softbank in India. Earlier, they invested in Snapdeal.

Alibaba Group (BABA US)
New Retail Market Place Aiming At Grocery E-commerce


We visited Hema Hub in Shanghai this week.

Hema has 151 stores in 20 cities since it opened the first store in Shanghai in 2016.

The company utilises Taobao, Alipay and other Alibaba’s existing traffic along with its self-built logistic system to implement the online-to-offline business.

In FY20, Hema will focus more on increasing user spending and brand awareness within the existing cities rather than expanding into new cites.

Maintain BUY and target price of US$206.00.

Alibaba (BABA)

It’s all change over at Chinese e-commerce king Alibaba. The company recently announced that CFO Maggie Wu will replace Executive Vice Chair Joe Tsai as head of strategic acquisitions and investments. That’s as the company reorganizes several business divisions including DingTalk and Freshippo.

Separately, in a recent 6-K filing, Alibaba proposed a one-for-eight stock split, to increase “flexibility in the company’s capital raising activities, including the issuance of new shares.”

Following the news, top-rated Stifel Nicolaus analyst Scott Devitt reiterated his bullish outlook on the stock. “We recently added shares of BABA to the Stifel Select List and continue to recommend the idea for investors with long-term investment horizons” said the analyst.

He approves of the recent developments at BABA. For, example, the analyst writes of Maggie Wu’s new appointment: “Wu has been CFO since 2013 and first joined Alibaba in 2007; we view her increased responsibilities at the top of the organization as a natural progression in the company’s leadership.”

More importantly, he views the stock split proposal as a step towards a reported Hong Kong listing. Indeed, Alibaba recently filed confidential paperwork for a listing on the Hong Kong stock exchange with plans to raise as much as $20B, according to multiple news reports.

“New capital could be deployed for buybacks or to extend the company’s competitive lead” contends Devitt.

Investors in mainland China, who can buy and sell Hong Kong-listed stocks through a cross-boundary trade link, could also stimulate demand for shares” the analyst added.

In total the company has received 15 back-to-back buy ratings from the Street over the last three months. They are predicting (on average) 28% upside potential from current levels.

4 Reasons I Just Bought Alibaba Stock

by John Ballard

1. It’s a data machine
It has 654 million users across its commerce platform, which provides the company with lots of data to help other companies with marketing and supply chain management.

2. It dominates China’s cloud
Its revenue soared 84% year over year. The cloud business makes up less than 7% of Alibaba’s revenue.

3. It’s shaping the future of retail

4. The growth and valuation
Revenue increased 51% last year, $56 billion in revenue.
Alibaba already generates about $15 billion in annual free cash flow.

Why Alibaba Stock Makes Even More Sense to Buy Today

by Chris Tyler

With shares trading near $176 there’s roughly $20 of upside in Alibaba stock before I’d recommend taking partial profits.

This compares nicely to the discussed battle line around the $170 level which bulls have overcome for a second time and a price obviously well-suited for a stop-loss if required.

Allowing for a bit of wiggle room, an exit beneath $169 means the initial reward potential on going long Alibaba stock is nearly three times as great as the risk. That’s attractive of course.

But in appreciating a large corrective base showing more and more evidence of the right stuff for even bigger longer-term success, BABA is looking even better for making your portfolio great again or simply better than otherwise.

China Stocks to Buy on the Dip: Alibaba (BABA)

Long-Term Bull Thesis: The long-term bull thesis on Alibaba (NYSE:BABA) is very simple. China has more than 1.4 billion people. Less than 60% of those people are connected to the internet, versus a 90% internet penetration rate in North America.

Over the next decade-plus, as China’s consumer economy urbanizes and digitizes, China’s internet penetration rate will rise towards 90%, implying hundreds of millions of new shoppers in China’s e-retail ecosystem.

Most of those shoppers will do the bulk of their e-retail shopping on Alibaba. Thus, over the next decade-plus, Alibaba’s revenues and profits will stay on a big growth trajectory. That big profit growth will push BABA stock higher in the long run.

Near-Term Bull Thesis: The near-term bull thesis on BABA stock has everything to do with margins. Specifically, Alibaba has never had a problem with revenue growth. Thanks to secular e-commerce tailwinds, Alibaba has been a 20%-plus revenue growth company for a long time.

Alibaba’s margins have been under tremendous pressure over the past few years, thanks to big growth investments and competitive pressures. Over the past few quarters margin trends have improved significantly. If these margin improvements persist, BABA stock could continue to move materially higher in the near-term.

Is Alibaba Stock A Buy Right Now? Here's What Earnings, Chart Show

by KEN SHREVE

Alibaba is not a buy now after giving up its 200-day line Friday in heavy volume.

Earlier this year, Alibaba was working on a cup-with-handle base with a 189.89 buy point, but the pattern fell apart in early May when Alibaba cut below its 50-day moving average.

Alibaba reclaimed an earlier handle buy point of 188.18 on April 12, rising 2.1%, but volume was only average. Weak volume, plus a lagging relative strength line, hurt the breakout.


Sales rose 37% to $16.73 billion.

What's impressive is that the company continues to deliver high double-digit sales growth, ranging from 34% to 49% in the past four quarters.

For its current fiscal year 2020, earnings per share are expected to jump 16%, with growth accelerating in 2021, up 28%.

Annual return on equity of 21% and pretax margin of 29.5% help its top-notch SMR Rating of A.
