☆ How Temu parent PDD dethroned Alibaba to become China's most valuable e-commerce company
▼ + stars: | 2024-05-29 | by ( Sheila Chiang | In Sheilachiang | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +2 min

PDD's value-for-money positioning and growth of its Temu marketplace has helped the company lead China's e-commerce arena, analysts said, making it the country's most valuable company in the segment. PDD Holdings reported stellar first-quarter results on Wednesday last week, sending its shares surging as much as 7.5%, and driving its market-cap past that of rival Alibaba Group . PDD shares have more than doubled in value — up 109% — in the past year, according to LSEG data. PDD, which also owns Chinese discount shopping app Pinduoduo has a market-cap of about $208 billion, compared with Alibaba's $196 billion, according to LSEG data. The market has "now more than priced in" the two key concerns – domestic competition and U.S.-China tensions – which were behind our earlier downgrade on PDD in March, said Keung.

☆ Chinese companies are looking overseas for growth. Morgan Stanley says this is the stock to play the trend

A U.S.-listed Chinese company that makes most of its money overseas could soar more than 75%, according to Morgan Stanley's newly updated forecasts. "This is because the stock has traded off recently, making short term valuation much more compelling," the Morgan Stanley analysts said, noting Tuya's quarterly results last week. Tuya shares closed Friday at $1.99, down more than 13% for the year so far. "Key play on Chinese companies going overseas, with a global leading position," the analysts said. Tuya is just one of many China-based companies going overseas as their business capabilities improve and growth at home slows.

Mario Anzuoni | ReutersOff-price retailers like TJX Companies and Ross are still posting sales gains and taking market share from rivals, but it's not just because consumers are under pressure and hunting for value. TJX and Ross both reported fiscal first quarter earnings last week that came in better than Wall Street expected, even as both companies lapped outsize growth from the prior-year period. Ross, which runs Ross Dress for Less and dd's Discounts, posted an 8% jump in sales, bringing revenue to $4.86 billion, compared to estimates of $4.83 billion, according to LSEG. "That's because they're providing consistent value to the consumer – and that's branded consistent value to the consumer at a discount price," said Roach. The dynamic is a bit different at Ross, which has more exposure to the lower- and middle-income consumer than TJX does and competes more on price, said Siegel.

Japanese investors are hesitant Japanese investors have long been skeptical of the local stock market after the asset price bubble burst in the early 1990s. Another reason Japanese investors may not be as keen on their domestic market could be the yen falling sharply.
