If You Timed Alibaba, It's Now Time To Sell
BABA
Published: February 26, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Positive

Alibaba rallied on Jack Ma's return, AI buzz, and earnings, but it's still below its 2020 peak, lagging broader indices and supposed Tech peers. Perfect timers should cash out. Alibaba's Qwen2.5 is CCP-hyped, not monetized, and trails Western models like Grok 3. It is no game changer, in my view. Jack Ma's comeback signals domestic pride for the private sector, not openness to the West. I think China remains uninvestable for foreigners.
