Partial Published before the outcome was known, scored automatically when the window closed on March 24, 2026.
Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached 55% of the predicted growth at its peak, without hitting the target.
The thesis — published December 24, 2025
PDD fell over the past 30-90 days after leadership changes and extra attention on Temu in Europe and Shanghai. When reports showed co-CEO Zhao became co-chairman, investor concern eased and shares jumped before the market opened. At about $113, the stock could bounce back if negative regulatory news calm down, but stronger enforcement could push it down again. Size your position for China policy risk.
Primary drivers
- Price may recover after the leadership-related selloff
- Leadership change can improve execution and steadiness
- Temu's growth can drive stock higher if scrutiny lets up
- Policy moves in China or Europe can make the stock swing a lot
How it played out
PDD: target was not reached
Lyra published PDD on 2025-12-24 at $113.07 with expected growth of 20%. The thesis pointed to a possible recovery after a leadership-related selloff, steadier execution from the leadership change, Temu growth if scrutiny eased, and policy risk in China or Europe that could make the stock swing.
Inside the window, PDD rose to $125.36 on 2026-01-06, a peak gain of 10.9%. It stayed below the $135.68 target and never reached it. By 2026-03-24, it ended at $98.09. The thesis partly played out early, but the full target missed.
