Analysts Say Alibaba's Lackluster Share Price Could Double In Face Of Company's Rising Earnings And Deal Driven Strategy
Portfolio Pulse from Daniel Harrison
Alibaba Group Holding Limited (NYSE:BABA) is gaining attention from investors due to its rising earnings and deal-driven strategy. Despite being over 50% below its 5-year ago valuation, analysts suggest it may be a good time to invest in the company. Alibaba's revenue was up 14% in the quarter ended June 30, and net income was 51% higher. The company's net margin of 14.6% is significantly higher than its US rival Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN). Alibaba's new CEO Eddie Wu plans to divest Alibaba’s subsidiaries to unlock the company’s cash and increase its investment in tech.
