Alibaba: Buy The E-Commerce Giant And Get AI And Cloud For Free
Alibaba Group Holding Limited is deeply undervalued, trading at 14x forward earnings despite aggressive $53B AI investment and strong cloud/AI growth. The market ignores Alibaba's successful pivot from e-commerce to AI/cloud, giving little value to its rapidly expanding tech segments. Sum-of-the-parts analysis shows Alibaba's core commerce alone justifies most of its market cap, with cloud and international businesses essentially free.

Alibaba: Pay Attention To Cloud Results (Earnings Preview)
I reiterate my buy recommendation for Alibaba, citing a nearly 40% upside based on my DCF valuation and ongoing business improvements. Cloud growth, rapid AI adoption, and restructuring efforts—like merging Ele.me and Fliggy—are key drivers supporting Alibaba's long-term value. Upcoming Q1 earnings and continued progress in cloud and AI could trigger renewed share price momentum by year-end, justifying an attractive risk-return profile.
