Partial Published before the outcome was known, scored automatically when the window closed on December 30, 2025.
Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached 16% of the predicted growth at its peak, without hitting the target.
The thesis — published October 1, 2025
Market view: PDD looks ready for a rebound. The price fell hard but the recent trend is tilting upward, and investor mood is strong. News shows more Chinese tech stocks are gaining this year, and PDD climbed about 50% off its April low, drawing attention. Risks from China policy remain, so we want proof first: consider buying around $130-$135 and add only if it pushes above $136-$138 with lots more people buying than usual.
Primary drivers
- Price looks washed out but trend is turning upward, drawing fresh buyers
- News suggests more Chinese tech names are improving this year
- Temu's rapid user gains hint at lasting demand and sales momentum
- Investor interest is high, with trading activity stronger than usual
How it played out
PDD: the 28% target was not reached
On 2025-10-01, Lyra published a short-term rebound thesis on PDD at 133.36. It expected 28% growth, with an entry zone of 130 to 135 and a target of 170.7. The thesis pointed to a washed-out price, an upward turn in the trend, stronger interest in Chinese tech names, Temu user gains, and trading activity above usual levels.
Inside the window, PDD rose to 139.41 on 2025-10-29. That was a 4.5% peak gain, but it stayed below the target. It never got there. By 2025-12-30, it ended at 113.83. The thesis only partially played out: there was an early rebound, but not the move Lyra published.
