Tencent Holdings Ltd TCEHYHOLDSep 12, 2018Stock price when the opinion was issued
As of Jun 09, 2026. Market Open.
Important, because it's the super-app for the Chinese consumer. Has a gaming platform, chat platform, and moving into the AI sphere. Interesting equity, but you need to make a call on China as a whole.
Remember what happened when the finance arm of BABA was supposed to go public: CEO said some things, Chinese government stepped in, Ant Financial was pulled, stock price of BABA collapsed by 70%, CEO disappeared for a few months. During that time, Tencent all of a sudden had to make a large donation to charity -- not something you can forecast. By investing in Tencent, you have to sign up for that.
Otherwise, a great company. Well managed, well structured, and they own the Chinese consumer.
Was a flyer, now caught in negative sentiment surrounding Chinese names. Long-term, a great company. Dominate social media space and gaming. Net revenue growth slowed to 30%, and seeing some weakness in profits. Concerns about US-China relations and regulatory approvals. He’s watching it very closely. Use a stop loss.
