Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached 46% of the predicted growth at its peak, without hitting the target.
The thesis — published October 13, 2025
PDD fell after tariff news hit China stocks on Oct 10. The idea is to go against the crowd, expecting the price to drift back toward its usual range over the next few months. Near-term price action looks weak, but the drop seems larger than the business outlook suggests. Temu keeps growing and total order value is rising, which supports a recovery if trade talk cools.
Primary drivers
- Trade news knocked the stock down
- Big drop, but many investors still optimistic
- Temu is growing with higher total order value
- Trade headlines could still hit the price
