Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached its target in 71 days.
The thesis — published July 8, 2025
PDD shares have been climbing step-by-step and recently showed a fresh signal that buyers are in control. A huge $1.9 billion purchase by a big international fund points to strong demand. Overseas success of its Temu shopping app keeps sales growing above 30 %, and the stock is priced lower than many other Chinese online retailers at 17 times next-year profits. If the price can rise past $110, it could move to $125-$130 within about three months, but mixed analyst opinions suggest some caution.
Primary drivers
- $1.9 billion flowed into a fund that owns PDD, hinting at strong future buying.
- Recent price action shows buyers gaining control and keeping the up-trend alive.
- Temu’s growth overseas keeps sales rising more than 30 % year over year.
- At 17 times next-year earnings, the stock is cheaper than other Chinese e-commerce firms.
