Shares of Uxin (NASDAQ: UXIN), a leading online used car dealer in China, surged 6.87% on November 4th, as investor sentiment was boosted by a significant investment from a major tech firm and strong demand for the company's stock.
Dida Inc. (HKG: 2559), a Hong Kong-listed technology company, announced that its subsidiary Lightwind Global agreed to acquire a 2.67% stake in Uxin for $7.5 million. The investment, which values Uxin at a premium to its current market capitalization, is seen as a vote of confidence in the company's growth prospects and business model.
Uxin's strong performance was also driven by broader investor demand, as the stock was among the top gainers among Asian American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) traded in the US on November 4th, rising 8.6%. The surge in Uxin's shares indicates that investors are increasingly optimistic about the company's ability to capitalize on the growing online used car market in China.
