Alibaba Group Holding (BABA-N)

He just bought it. It has momentum, just taking out its recent 6-month high at $118, and has a path towards $150.

Chinese stocks have been moving up, partly because of outflows from India and into China. BABA is the best of China's stocks with the most upside. It's close to returning to its high.

Like Amazon, they dominate key secular growth areas in e-commerce, are in cloud computer though trade at only one third of Amazon's PE. Is a modest grower, but has a huge margin of safety. There's so much pessimism about tariffs now. Wait and see, but would be an opportunity if the tariffs are more bark than bite.

Challenges: Trump's presidency who was negative towards China before. Revenues continue to rise, but earnings have been cut in half from the peak. Also, regulators in China tend to meddle in companies. 

He saw it as a cheap way to play China's resurgence. He round-tripped it, up and down. We've reached peak pessimism here, so you can own it now.

It's the only Chinese stock he will recommend. Maybe Trump will do something more creative than Biden did towards China.

Short answer is yes, he likes it. He was selling into strength a few months ago. Now he's looking to reload. On a 5-year chart, you can see the massive bottoming pattern. Won't see numbers like the previous highs again. Probably worth $125-150 over the next few years, if they can stimulate the consumer and the consumer responds.

Chinese consumers have tons of savings, so the potential is there. Buy on pullbacks. One of the best value retail names out there. But you have to be OK with China exposure.

Sideways trading range. Looking for a breakout above 2023 highs. So many other names look so much better. China may see a bit of a bounce over the next couple of months, but we are getting to the end of the cycle. He'd lean toward taking risk off.

Some of his colleagues like it. America is overly negative on China; America has always needed an enemy. The valuation is cheap compared to Amazon. If you're bullish China, BABA could be a buy.

Alibaba and Baidu are the only safe Chinese stocks, one you can stick with if the economy falters. Shares have nearly doubled this year, but is still trades at 14x PE and 12x 2025. Has a $282 billion market cap, but also $170 billion in cash. Cheap.

Spectacular 1-week rally in the midst of a hope rally. Tactically, over weeks and months, sees more upside. But medium- to long-term, more pessimistic. Reason: tons of competition in China. There are 2 or 3 others that do what it does. Don't fall for "it's the AMZN of China at half the price"; far more nuanced than that.

Has been buying recently. Trend excellent, and getting better. Appears to be approaching new highs. Chart fundamentals appear to be excellent. 

A cheap stock, but they tend to report well, but people always find some reason to sell it.

Because of Beijing's flip-flops towards Chinese companies, anyone who has owned BABA has taken a beating. Too risky, despite it being a great company.

It's the cheapest stock around based on growth.
