I know $Sea Ltd(SE)$ struggled last year. But, boy, did it really come roaring back - not just its ecommerce business Shopee but also its gaming division now contributing the way it used to.

A sort of $Alibaba(BABA)$ $BABA-W(09988)$ + $TENCENT(00700)$ $Tencent Holding Ltd.(TCEHY)$ of the Emerging Markets rolled into one dynamo.

Sea Limited $SE 3Q results:

Revenue +30.8% to $4.3 billion (Major BEAT!)
