Tencent Holdings Ltd TCEHYPARTIAL BUYJun 21, 2019Stock 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.
He doesn't follow the Chinese stocks much. The decline in this and Alibaba stem from ongoing trade tensions, blocked from growing by the U.S. So, once the trade war ends then Tencent will revive. You can buy this long-term.
