$Alibaba(BABA)$ $Alibaba(09988)$ Some people here have been calling for Baba to delist from the US and offer its stocks just via Hong Kong exchange. Guys, that would probably protect you from some anti-China manipulation and delist fears, however have you taken everything into consideration? Some Western funds cannot trade in HK, Baba would loose their money. Secondly, many people do not have access to HK exchange. Thirdly, trading in HK is expensive - you have to buy in larger lots of 100 shares, than the fees are much higher than in the US and curency exchange condition. So it would be really bad for traders. Fourthly, overall liquidity is much lower and this makes stock more vulnarable to volatility. So, I would say US delist is lose-lose scenario. However I would clip wings to US listing and increased weight of HK and participation of China investors. This would help the stock. Lets see if we get to the HK primary listing some day.
