Alibaba issued $10.2 billion in new shares, causing a market sell-off that overestimated the actual dilution impact, which is only about 0.13% on its ADR price. The company’s cloud business is growing rapidly with 45% year-over-year revenue growth and a 12% EBITA margin, while AI-related revenue has seen triple-digit growth for 12 consecutive quarters. The key question is whether Alibaba can convert its significant AI investments into strong returns, which the market currently undervalues. Overall, Alibaba remains a strong buy based on its growth potential and manageable dilution.
