CN Assets Select|08 A Comprehensive Breakdown of China’s Resource ETFs

Over the past two years, the stories of both A-shares and Hong Kong stocks have revolved around one key phrase: pro-cyclical. Especially in commodities and resource-related equities, this phrase acts like a switch—once triggered by policy or the economic cycle, the market tends to surge swiftly and fiercely. Recently, market attention has again shifted to China’s resource sectors: steel, copper & aluminum, and rare earths, all riding on policy stimulus and a global price rebound.But why should we care about these “iron lumps” and “piles of ore”? Because they are not just cold raw materials—they represent China’s confidence in breaking free from economic “involution.” Steel fuels infrastructure, copper & aluminum are the “lifeblood” of new energy vehicles, and rare earths are the “v

Alibaba’s Stock Price Surge is Unlikely to Remain

China's e-commerce and tech giant Alibaba (ticker: $Alibaba(BABA)$) – officially known as "Alibaba Group Holding Limited" – witnessed a price surge after it released the earnings results for the first quarter (Q1) for its Fiscal Year (FY) 2026. The price surge was mostly attributed to its advances in capturing AI spends.  This surge might be somewhat overstating the advances made by the company.  Trend Drilldown In 2023, the company's management moved to consolidate into six distinct entities that could possibly be spun out into six separate companies/tickers. While the logistics arm – Cainiao – worked on an IPO since, the plan was dropped early in 2024. In Q1 2026, the “6 entities” plan has been effectively dissolved.  As of FY 202

Alibaba’s latest results reveal a complex picture: 1. Positive Surprise – AI Ambitions The development of a new AI chip to fill the vacuum left by Nvidia in the Chinese market is strategically significant. With US export restrictions limiting access to advanced semiconductors, Alibaba’s move could strengthen its cloud division’s competitiveness. If execution is strong, the AI chip could bolster Alibaba Cloud’s positioning in the enterprise and government segments, where demand for AI computing power is surging. 2. Financial Signals – Cash Outflow The RMB 18.815 billion free cash flow (FCF) outflow underscores Alibaba’s aggressive reinvestment into cloud infrastructure and its “Taobao Flash Sales” initiative. While negative FCF is not ideal, it can be justified if these investments lead to

$Broadcom(AVGO)$ $S&P 500(.SPX)$ $Alibaba(BABA)$ I’m not treating this as a routine week. What’s lining up between earnings, Fed reports, global trade rulings, and record highs is the type of setup that creates outsized opportunity if you’re prepared; and landmines if you’re not. 🌍 Macro Backdrop: A Market Balancing on Policy Shocks The $SPX has closed above 6,500 for the first time in history.

Now is an attractive entry point for long-term investors. Escalating competition in China's food delivery is expanding the market, validating Meituan's moat, and strengthening its user base despite near-term margin pressure. Emerging segments like Instashopping and in-store services are scaling rapidly, diversifying Meituan's business and deepening consumer trust beyond food delivery. While margins may remain pressured short-term due to subsidies, I expect profitability and multiples to rebound as competition normalizes by FY26.

From Cash Burn to Chip Power: Is Alibaba a Buy-and-Hold to $150?

$Alibaba(BABA)$ Alibaba Group (NYSE: BABA) has long been regarded as one of China’s most important technology conglomerates, but over the last several years, the company’s reputation with investors has been tested. From Beijing’s regulatory crackdowns to intensifying domestic competition and U.S. geopolitical restrictions, Alibaba has faced challenges that reshaped how global markets view the stock. Now, in 2025, the company is trying to write its next chapter. The latest earnings report contained one particularly notable development: Alibaba unveiled a new artificial intelligence chip designed to help fill the vacuum left by U.S. export restrictions on Nvidia’s high-end GPUs. The announcement triggered immediate investor enthusiasm, sending the s
From Cash Burn to Chip Power: Is Alibaba a Buy-and-Hold to $150?
Great news for future Alibaba investors but no evidence and whether it clears US security concerns, meaning NVDA continues to be the undisputed king meanwhile. Time to buy oversold $NVIDIA(NVDA)$   price target $250 by end 2025.
1. Earnings Highlights Positive surprise: Alibaba unveiled its own AI chip—a strategic move to reduce reliance on Nvidia, especially given U.S. export restrictions. This aligns with Beijing’s broader push for semiconductor self-sufficiency. The market rewarded the announcement, with the stock surging ~10%. Negative drag: Free Cash Flow (FCF) outflow of RMB 18.8 billion, reflecting: 1. Heavy investment in cloud infrastructure, a capital-intensive but strategically vital area. 2. Ongoing subsidies for Taobao Flash Sales, designed to fend off rivals Pinduoduo and Douyin. --- 2. Can AI Be the Next Growth Driver? Cloud + AI integration: Alibaba Cloud remains the largest cloud provider in China, and pairing it with an in-house AI chip creates vertical integration—potentially higher margins long-
