All things said, most of us will agree that Alibaba remains a structurally sound company with high long term growth potential. Nevertheless we cannot assume that there's no further significant downside in its prices as so long as China refuses to change its unsound COVID-19 policy and open its economy again, the shares of Alibaba will continue to gravitate downwards.

We must also not forget that even if China opens up again, it will still take time for the Chinese consumer to recover their buying power which has been dealt an almost death blow by the lengthy closure of China, leading to increased poverty as businesses and workers struggle to survive.
