Ma Yun calls TB Flash Sale a “milestone battle”. Three years of no profit pressure. AWS spent $125B in 2025 to win cloud. $Alibaba(BABA.US) spending $12B to win instant retail. Same playbook, different arena. Market yawns. I accumulate. 🛒

Spotted a huge block trade for$BABA-W(9988.HK) this afternoon - 390k shares at HKD 154.6, a 2.5% discount. Around HKD 60 mil. Not auto-matched. Meanwhile, $Alibaba(BABA.US) options went crazy yesterday, some puts surged 2799% on a 3% drop. Big money moving or just hedging? What's the smart money seeing that we don't? 🧐

Latest quarter not yet reported, but last quarter cloud AI +34%, AI-related revenue triple-digit growth for 7 straight quarters. Management hinted 380bn RMB capex “maybe too small”. $Alibaba(BABA.US) is not a story stock, it’s an asset stock. 22x PE for AI+retail+cloud+international, optionality is free.

$Alibaba(BABA.US) often moves with China policy expectations rather than earnings itself. Recently AI narrative gives bulls new angle, but every rally still meets sellers. Until clear earnings acceleration, maybe more chop than trend 😅

Feels like $Alibaba(BABA.US) narrative slowly shifting from old-school e-commerce to AI cloud story already. Recent results showed cloud growth driven by AI demand, but profits still pressured due to heavy investment
