On July 21, PDD Holdings rose 3.01% in regular trading, trading at $86.67/share, with turnover of $277 million. The rally was driven by news that PDD's Xiongan subsidiary surpassed 2,000 employees on July 20, with peak single-day onboarding exceeding 200 people, signaling that the company's dedicated plan to hire 5,000 workers within a year is on track for early completion.
The hiring acceleration follows PDD's official activation of a new 12-story office building in Xiongan New Area on July 12, with the first batch of 500 employees moving in. Simultaneously, the company completed the acquisition of an entire office tower — the DBS Bank Building in Shanghai's Lujiazui financial district — for approximately 3.3 billion yuan. Two major office property purchases within a single month mark a strategic pivot from an asset-light model toward heavier asset deployment, reinforcing PDD's commitment to long-term physical infrastructure investment across key Chinese economic zones.
