10 Consumer Discretionary Stocks With Whale Alerts In Today's Session

Chinese e-commerce company Alibaba Group Holding Ltd (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABA#NYSE">BABA</a>) has invested $71.4 million or 100 billion Korean won in the South Korean apparel brand Ably Corp.
What Happened: Ably is now South Korea&#8217;s first unicorn of 2024, with the deal valuing the company at over $1 billion, as per a <a href="https://www.kedglobal.com/e-commerce/newsView/ked202412020004">report</a> by The Korean Economic Daily.
Following the investment, Ably&#8217;s valuation has soared to around 3 trillion won (approx. $2.1 billion), a significant increase from its 900 billion won valuation during its 67 billion won pre-Series C fundraising round in January 2022.
Why It Matters: This deal marks the first equity investment by China-based Alibaba in any Korean shopping app.
Ably is the first Korean startup to reach a valuation of over $1 billion this year, following Naver Corp.&#8217;s Kream Corp., which achieved a 1 trillion won valuation in December 2023 after completing a bridge round financing.
As per its 13F filings for the third quarter, Alibaba holds stakes in XPeng Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XPEV#NYSE">XPEV</a>), Weibo Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WB#NASDAQ">WB</a>), Perfect Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PERF#NYSE">PERF</a>), and Best Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BEST#NYSE">BEST</a>) in the U.S.
Alibaba increased its stake in XPeng by 371% in the September 2024 quarter compared to the June 2024 quarter. During the same period, it reduced its stake in Perfect by 2%, while its Weibo and Best stakes remained unchanged.

Price Action: Shares of Alibaba Group Holdings&#8217; ADR closed 0.90% higher at $87.37 per share on Friday as compared to a 0.31% advance in the NYSE Composite Index.
According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro data</a>, Alibaba has a consensus price target of $119.82 apiece based on the ratings of 23 analysts, but a consensus rating of &#8220;Buy.&#8221; The highest price target among all the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/BABA/analyst-ratings">analysts tracked by Benzinga</a> is $155 per share issued by Deutsche Bank on Jan. 13, 2023, whereas the lowest price target is $85 apiece issued by Bernstein on Aug. 16.
The average price target of $122 per share between Barclays, Benchmark, and Mizuho implies a 39.64% upside for Alibaba.

Alibaba Co-Founder Jack Ma Makes Rare Appearance At Company Campus

Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABA#NYSE">BABA</a>) has introduced a new AI model, QwQ-32B-Preview, which is positioned as a competitor to Microsoft Corp.-backed (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) OpenAI&#8217;s o1 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/top-stories/24/09/40842891/openai-unveils-o1-model-a-step-closer-to-human-like-ai-but-not-without-flaws">reasoning model</a>.
What Happened: Developed by Alibaba&#8217;s Qwen team, QwQ-32B-Preview boasts 32.5 billion parameters, enabling it to handle prompts up to 32,000 words.
This model is one of the few available under a permissive license, allowing for download and use, the company stated in a blog post on Thursday.
It reportedly outperforms OpenAI&#8217;s o1-preview and o1-mini models on specific benchmarks, such as the AIME and MATH tests. These tests evaluate AI models&#8217; performance in logic puzzles and math problems.
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/24/11/42169194/joby-gets-toyotas-500m-dollar-lift-evtol-pioneer-making-new-highs?itm_source=parsely-api">Joby Gets Toyota&#8217;s $500M Dollar Lift: eVTOL Pioneer Making New Highs</a>
Despite its strengths, QwQ-32B-Preview has limitations. Alibaba acknowledges potential issues like unexpected language switches and underperformance in tasks requiring common sense reasoning.
The model&#8217;s reasoning capabilities allow it to fact-check itself, reducing errors but increasing solution time.
QwQ-32B-Preview is available on the AI development platform Hugging Face.
However, only certain components are released, limiting full replication or insight into its workings. The model&#8217;s responses align with Chinese regulatory standards, avoiding politically sensitive topics.

Why It Matters: The introduction of Alibaba&#8217;s QwQ-32B-Preview comes at a time when OpenAI is making significant strides in the AI sector. Last month, OpenAI&#8217;s valuation <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41149788/openai-valuation-soars-to-157b-in-latest-funding-round">soared to $157 billion </a>following a successful funding round.&nbsp;
Earlier this week, it was reported that SoftBank Group (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SFTBF#OTC">SFTBF</a>) has increased its stake in OpenAI through a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/11/42227972/softbank-secures-bigger-openai-stake-with-1-5b-employee-share-buyout-report">$1.5 billion employee share buyout</a>.
OpenAI is also reportedly exploring the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/24/11/42130303/chatgpt-parent-openai-considers-building-its-own-web-browser-to-challenge-googles-search-monopoly-following-doj-push-to-break-up-chrome-dominance">development of its own web browser</a> to challenge Alphabet Inc.

Price Action: Currently, Alibaba shares are up 0.27% to $86.82 in pre-market trading on Friday, following a 1.66% rise to $86.59 during Wednesday&#8217;s regular session, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

Reported Thursday, Baijiayun Joins Forces With Alibaba's DingTalk, Secures Industry Service Provider Certification

Alibaba Group Holding Ltd (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABA#NYSE">BABA</a>) (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABAF#NYSE">BABAF</a>) and PDD Holdings Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PDD#NASDAQ">PDD</a>) were once the shining stars of China's e-commerce universe, but recent performance metrics suggest they're caught <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/e-commerce">in a gravitational pull downward</a>.
Let's dive into the tale of two stocks that seem to be competing for the title of &#8216;most bearish trend.&#8217;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Alibaba: The Resilient Underdog?</h2>
Alibaba's stock, at $86.73, has weathered a mix of optimism and anxiety. It's up 12.12% over the past year, but the last month saw a sharp 13.01% decline. 
<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/?utm_source=BZprocontent112724&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="628" height="490" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/27132139/Screenshot-2024-11-27-at-9.45.44-PM.png" alt="" class="wp-image-668004" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/27132139/Screenshot-2024-11-27-at-9.45.44-PM.png 628w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/27132139/Screenshot-2024-11-27-at-9.45.44-PM-300x234.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 628px) 100vw, 628px" /></a></figure>
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/?utm_source=BZprocontent112724&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Chart created using Benzinga Pro</a>
Technically, the stock screams &#8216;bearish&#8217; as it lingers below key moving averages, including its 20-day and 50-day simple moving averages (SMAs). Yet, with its eight-day SMA at $86.18 and 200-day SMA at $82.52, there's a faint glimmer of hope—potential buyers might find solace in its nearly oversold RSI of 38.51.
Investor sentiment remains tepid, but big names like Soros Capital Management and Bridgewater Associates are quietly building stakes. Is Alibaba the beaten-down stock that contrarians love to bet on? 
Maybe, but upcoming U.S. tariffs could spoil the progress.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">PDD Holdings: The High-Flyer Turned Free-Faller</h2>
PDD's stock paints a darker picture. After a blistering run with Temu's U.S. expansion, the company now faces an aggressive sell-off. 
Down 33.22% over six months and 20.52% in the past month, it seems Wall Street is questioning the sustainability of Temu's discount-driven strategy. 
<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/?utm_source=BZprocontent112724&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="628" height="490" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/27132201/Screenshot-2024-11-27-at-9.45.59-PM.png" alt="" class="wp-image-668005" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/27132201/Screenshot-2024-11-27-at-9.45.59-PM.png 628w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/27132201/Screenshot-2024-11-27-at-9.45.59-PM-300x234.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 628px) 100vw, 628px" /></a></figure>

Technical indicators are grim, with the MACD at a negative 6.18 and an RSI of 28.79 signaling oversold territory.
Even institutional love, like Fisher Asset Management upping its stake, hasn't stopped analysts from jumping ship. 
JPMorgan downgraded PDD to neutral with a slashed price target of $105, while Benchmark trimmed its target to $160 from $185. 
Meanwhile, fears over regulatory risks and national security concerns tied to Temu only add to the bearish momentum.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Verdict: Avoid Or Opportunistic Entry?</h2>
Both stocks are under pressure, but PDD's steeper declines and bearish outlook suggest it's in a riskier position.
Alibaba, with its diversified revenue streams and slightly less dramatic drop, might hold more appeal for the brave. 
Still, with Trump-era tariffs looming, both stocks might have more turbulence ahead. For now, it's about &#8216;who's losing less badly,&#8217; and neither is doing well.

According to the National Bureau of Statistics, efforts to stabilize industrial output are gaining traction.
Yu Weining, a bureau statistician, told the WSJ that the improvement was due to various support measures, including interest rate cuts and liquidity injections, to boost market confidence and production levels.
The recovery was particularly evident in the raw materials and consumer goods manufacturing sectors, bolstered by a rebound in domestic consumption and robust exports of industrial products. The data reflects a broader stabilization in production, though challenges remain for industrial enterprises operating under reduced capacity.
For the first ten months of 2024, industrial profits dropped by 4.3% year-over-year, widening from the 3.5% decline recorded in the first nine months. This broader trend indicates persistent headwinds despite recent gains as some companies grapple with reduced operations.
China&#8217;s government introduced a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/24/11/41843262/chinas-stimulus-plan-not-enough-to-ignite-stocks" rel="noreferrer noopener">6 trillion yuan ($840 billion) stimulus</a> to alleviate local debt burdens and revive economic growth.
The plan, confirmed by Finance Minister Lan Fo&#8217;an, will provide 2 trillion yuan annually to local governments through 2026.
Central authorities will issue 800 billion yuan annually in bonds, totaling 4 trillion yuan over five years.
The initiative aims to cut hidden local debts from 14.3 trillion yuan to 2.3 trillion yuan by 2028.
China&#8217;s government advisers expect the country to brace for an economic growth target of 5.0% for 2025 and robust fiscal stimulus to nullify the impact of expected U.S. tariff hikes on its exports, as per Reuters.

</ul>
Overview
In July 2020, Ant Group announced plans for a record-breaking $35 billion IPO, poised to drive significant growth for Alibaba Group Holding Ltd (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABA#NYSE">BABA</a>), which held a 33% stake. However, regulatory concerns over Ant's business model, ownership structure, and compliance with new fintech rules led to the IPO's abrupt suspension in November, just days before its launch. The fallout caused Alibaba's shares to plummet, erasing billions in market value, and triggered an antitrust investigation into its monopolistic "Choose One of Two" practices. In response, investors filed a class-action lawsuit, accusing Alibaba of failing to disclose critical regulatory risks. Recently, Alibaba agreed to pay $433.5 million to affected shareholders to settle this lawsuit.
SAMR's Crackdown on Alibaba: Legal and Regulatory Implications
As Alibaba's market dominance and access to vast consumer data grew, the Chinese government expressed rising concerns about its economic impact. In response, the SAMR introduced new anti-monopoly regulations on September 1, 2019, targeting practices by powerful companies like Alibaba. 
On November 5, SAMR convened a meeting with around twenty major e-commerce firms, warning that practices like "Choose One of Two" were illegal and must stop.&nbsp;
While Alibaba did not deny using such practices, it dismissed the criticism as "slander" and "malicious hype" in a press statement. Under growing regulatory pressure, however, the company eventually committed to compliance, acknowledging potential scrutiny for future violations.
Despite the clear warnings, Alibaba continued its anti-competitive behavior. In November 2020, the government introduced new regulations specifically targeting monopolistic behavior in the internet industry, with Alibaba as a primary focus. 
This announcement triggered a sharp 9% drop in Alibaba's share price on November 10, 2020. By December, SAMR launched a formal investigation, which ultimately found Alibaba guilty and resulted in a record $2.8 billion fine.&nbsp;
Political Risk and the Hidden Investors Behind Ant&#8217;s IPO
Ant Group was spun off from Alibaba in 2011. Jack Ma controlled 50.5% of Ant's shares, while Alibaba held a 33% stake.&nbsp;
On July 20, 2020, Alibaba announced Ant&#8217;s IPO, aiming to raise a record $35 billion with a $300 billion valuation, sparking excitement among investors, as Alibaba's stake could be worth over $100 billion.&nbsp;
However, the enthusiasm was short-lived, as the company revealed in November 2020 that the IPO had been abruptly suspended.
The suspension was largely driven by Ant's attempt to bypass financial regulations. Although operating as a financial services company, Ant positioned itself as a tech firm to avoid traditional banking rules. Its high-risk lending activities, with leverage ratios of 50-60 times, raised serious concerns among regulators. In response, China introduced new rules in September 2020, requiring financial holding companies like Ant to maintain higher capital levels, further intensifying scrutiny. Jack Ma's criticism of regulators in an October speech further fueled tensions.
Another major risk to the IPO was the hidden identities of private investors whose interests conflicted with those of Chinese President. These investors concealed their ownership through complex and opaque investment structures. Jack Ma was reportedly aware of the political risks tied to these undisclosed ownership interests but failed to address them transparently. When the Chinese government uncovered the identities of these investors during an investigation prior to the Ant IPO, it decided to halt the offering entirely.
As a result of the undisclosed information, the share price of Alibaba dropped from $310 on November 2, 2020, to $222 on December 24, 2020, indicating a total fall of 29%.&nbsp;
Following these events, investors accused Alibaba of failing to disclose the regulatory risks tied to Ant Group and its monopolistic practices, leading to a lawsuit against the company.
Resolving the Case
To resolve the lawsuit from investors, Alibaba has agreed to a cash settlement of $433.5 million. If you invested in Alibaba, you may be eligible to <a href="https://11thestate.com/cases/alibaba-investor-settlement">claim a portion</a> of this settlement to recover your losses.
Despite these efforts, Alibaba&#8217;s stock remains below its peak, trading at $85.

In August 2024, China's market regulator announced that Alibaba had completed three years of "rectification" for monopolistic behavior. Alibaba called the announcement a "new starting point for development" and pledged to continue fostering the healthy growth of the platform economy.

Consumer Tech News (Nov 18-Nov 22): US DOJ Demands Google To Divest Chrome Browser, Gemini AI Available On Apple & More

Meta Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) is set to face a multibillion-dollar lawsuit following the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/24/06/39259832/metas-legal-battle-over-cambridge-analytica-scandal-heads-to-supreme-court">dismissal of its appeal</a> by the U.S. Supreme Court over the Cambridge Analytica data scandal.
What Happened: The Supreme Court, which heard arguments on Meta's appeal on Nov. 6, gave no explanation for the dismissal.&nbsp;
It only stated that the case was being "dismissed as improvidently granted," <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-11-22/facebook-appeal-over-shareholder-suit-dropped-by-supreme-court?srnd=phx-technology">reported</a> Bloomberg.&nbsp;
This dismissal increases the likelihood of Mark Zuckerberg's Meta facing a costly settlement, potentially as large as $2 billion, according to Bloomberg Intelligence analyst Matthew Schettenhelm.
In a statement, Meta has expressed disappointment and maintained that the plaintiff&#8217;s claims are baseless. "We will continue to defend ourselves as this case is considered by the district court."

Meta is accused of misleading shareholders about the risks associated with the 2018 Cambridge Analytica scandal, involving the unauthorized use of personal data from over 30 million users.
The shareholders argue that revelations about the breach eventually led to two 2018 price drops that cost the company more than $200 billion in market value.
Meta did not immediately respond to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga&#8217;s</a> request for a statement.
Why It Matters: Meta faced another legal setback in October when a U.S. District Judge rejected the company's attempt to dismiss claims made in two separate lawsuits filed by U.S. states.
The lawsuits accused <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41349398/mark-zuckerbergs-meta-to-face-lawsuits-over-teen-social-media-addiction-judge-rejects-dismissal-moti">Meta of contributing to mental health</a> issues among teenagers by making its platforms addictive.
Moreover, shareholder lawsuits have been a common occurrence in the tech industry. For instance, In October Alibaba Group (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABA#NYSE">BABA</a>) agreed to a $433.5 million settlement in a class-action l<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/10/41559403/alibaba-agrees-to-433-5m-settlement-in-shareholder-class-action-lawsuit">awsuit filed by its shareholders</a>.
Similarly, Tilray Brands Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TLRY#NASDAQ">TLRY</a>) also <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/legal/24/11/42015978/shareholder-lawsuit-challenges-tilrays-voting-tactics-for-authorized-share-increase">faced a shareholder lawsuit</a> accusing the company of misleading voting practices.
Currently, the Supreme Court is also reviewing an appeal by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/legal/24/11/41960485/nvidias-crypto-past-returns-to-haunt-as-supreme-court-signals-green-light-for-lawsuit">Nvidia Corporation</a> (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>), which faces a lawsuit alleging it <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/legal/24/11/41960485/nvidias-crypto-past-returns-to-haunt-as-supreme-court-signals-green-light-for-lawsuit">misled shareholders about</a> its dependence on crypto-mining revenue ahead of a market crash.
Price Action: Meta&#8217;s shares dropped 0.7% on Friday, ending the day at $559.14. In after-hours trading, the stock gained 0.098%, reaching $559.69 as of this writing, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

Meta Faces Multibillion-Dollar Lawsuit As Supreme Court Dismisses Appeal In Cambridge Analytica Data Scandal

China has launched a new AI Experts Committee to influence artificial intelligence&#8217;s global development and governance as part of its broader strategy. 
The committee was announced during the four-day World Internet Conference, also known as the Wuzhen Summit, held in Zhejiang province, China.
The AI Experts Committee will be led by Wang Jian, founder of Alibaba Group Holding (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABA#NYSE">BABA</a>) Alibaba Cloud, who was named chief expert, SCMP <a href="https://www.scmp.com/tech/tech-trends/article/3287593/wuzhen-summit-china-creates-ai-advisory-body-alibaba-cloud-founder-chief-expert" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">reports</a>.

The committee includes approximately 170 specialists, featuring prominent figures such as British computer scientist Wendy Hall, Vienna University of Technology professor Schahram Dustdar and Chinese-American scientist Zhang Ya-qin of Tsinghua University.
Representatives from U.S. firms, including chipmaker Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>), are also members.
The committee aims to enhance international collaboration and promote China&#8217;s perspective on responsible AI governance. This initiative mirrors Beijing&#8217;s approach to influencing global standards, similar to its efforts in shaping 4G and 5G mobile technologies. 
Panel discussions at the Wuzhen Summit focused on AI innovation, governance, and its potential to empower productivity across industries.
At the summit, Eddie Wu Yongming, CEO of Alibaba Group Holding, emphasized AI could transform productivity across various sectors, forming what he described as a &#8220;superintelligent body.&#8221; Meanwhile, Xiaomi founder Lei Jun shared plans to launch an intelligent-driving application by year-end, aligning with the company&#8217;s &#8220;All in AI&#8221; strategy. Ant Group CEO Eric Jing Xiandong underscored AI&#8217;s potential for personalization in services while emphasizing responsible risk management.
The formation of this committee highlights China&#8217;s commitment to taking a leading role in global AI governance, even as it faces trade restrictions from the U.S. government. This effort aligns with Beijing&#8217;s broader ambitions to remain competitive in advanced technologies.
China has been actively involved in boosting its AI semiconductor base after the U.S. imposed sanctions on advanced AI chip exports to the country, restricting it from advanced technologies <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42116366/taiwan-semiconductor-plans-new-factories-annually-boosting-domestic-chip-production" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">from companies like</a> NVIDIA Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSM#NYSE">TSM</a>).

China Unveils Global AI Governance Committee With Alibaba Cloud Founder At The Helm

Alibaba Group Holding (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABA#NYSE">BABA</a>) announced plans to consolidate its domestic and international e-commerce operations into a single unit called Alibaba E-commerce Business Group.
The newly created division will be led by Jiang Fan, the current head of Alibaba International Digital Commerce, who has been the group&#8217;s CEO. He will report directly to Alibaba CEO Eddie Wu Yongming, SCMP <a target="_blank" href="https://www.scmp.com/tech/big-tech/article/3287583/alibaba-merge-domestic-and-global-e-commerce-units-names-jiang-fan-ceo" rel="noreferrer noopener">reports</a>.
Also Read: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42111158/pdd-holdings-3-earnings-misses-expectations-reports-strong-transaction-growth-but-faces-challenges-in-competitive-market-shares-plunge" rel="noreferrer noopener">Temu Parent PDD Stock Tumbles After Q3 Profit Miss, Company Cites Intensified Competition and External Challenges</a>
The reorganization marks Alibaba&#8217;s most significant structural overhaul since the company split its operations into six independent business units in 2023.
This move is seen as a strategic effort to streamline operations and improve synergies between domestic and international supply chains, particularly as the company faces intensifying competition from rivals such as PDD Holdings Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PDD#NASDAQ">PDD</a>), which has aggressively expanded globally with its shopping app Temu.
Jiang&#8217;s leadership in the international division has already demonstrated significant growth.
Alibaba has been actively realigning its business strategy under CEO Eddie Wu, who took over leadership in 2023.
Recent initiatives include launching a digital marketing tool, Quanzhantui, and implementing technology service fees for Taobao and Tmall merchants. These measures aim to revitalize its domestic operations while maintaining its global expansion trajectory.
During the recently concluded Singles&#8217; Day shopping festival, Taobao and Tmall accounted for roughly 50% of sales across major platforms, while Douyin led growth with a 19% increase in gross merchandise value.
Alibaba&nbsp;reported <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/11/42006281/alibaba-q2-earnings-revenue-beats-forecast-cloud-and-international-sales-shine-free-cash-flow-falls-amid-strategic-investments" rel="noreferrer noopener">fiscal second-quarter 2024</a> revenue growth of 5% year-on-year to $33.70 billion, beating the analyst consensus of $33.47 billion.
Taobao and Tmall Group revenue grew by 1% to $14.11 billion. Alibaba International Digital Commerce Group revenue increased by 29% to $4.51 billion, driven by the growth of cross-border businesses.
Benchmark&#8217;s Fawne Jiang maintained a Buy rating on Alibaba with a price target of $118, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/11/42043480/alibabas-monetization-strategy-gains-momentum-but-gmv-growth-lags-analyst" rel="noreferrer noopener">citing mixed earnings performance</a>.
While customer management revenue grew 2.5% YoY, sluggish GMV growth and increased investments in Taobao and Tmall raise concerns over market share retention. The analyst expects improved monetization from software service fees and expanded Quanzhantui marketing use in upcoming quarters, aiding profitability. Fiscal 2025 revenue and EBITDA estimates were slightly reduced due to margin pressures but reflect confidence in the gradual recovery and user acquisition.
Price Action:&nbsp;BABA stock is down 0.99% at $85.91 at&nbsp;the last check on Thursday.
