Goldman Sachs is cautious on Chinese tech behemoth Tencent Holdings , removing it from its Asia-Pacific "conviction list" of top picks. Goldman also removed Japan's Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group and China's Sungrow Power Supply from its Asia conviction list for January, and added Kotobuki Spirits , JD.com and Iluka Resources . The stocks are featured in the investment bank's "Conviction List - Directors' Cut," which it says offers a "curated and active" list of buy-rated stocks. JD.com Goldman also added Chinese e-commerce player JD.com to its list, citing factors such as a growth pick-up and "significant room for further valuation re-rating." Goldman has a target price of 7.7 Australian dollars ($4.79) on the stock, implying nearly 50% upside potential.
