Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached its target in 30 days.
The thesis — published July 14, 2025
Alibaba's shares look cheap because the price is only a few times next year's expected profit, while many analysts still think the stock should be worth about 20 % more. Investor mood is strong, scoring 96 out of 100. The company is also investing in Moonshot's Kimi K2, a new artificial-intelligence project that could open extra ways to grow. If China announces economic help or fresh AI news hits, the price could climb about 18 % over the next three months.
Primary drivers
- Analysts think the share price is about 20 % too low after earlier sell-offs.
- Success of the Kimi K2 AI tool gives Alibaba a story beyond online shopping.
- Investor sentiment is high and recent buying hints more people may step in.
- Possible support from Beijing could draw overseas investors back to Chinese shares.
