BABA is trading at 3.01% down now at $159.32, reversing yesterday's 4.42% gain. The decline follows Alibaba's fiscal Q2 results, which revealed that aggressive investments in AI, Cloud, and quick commerce are pressuring profit margins despite strong revenue performance. While the company reported better-than-expected earnings with cloud revenues surging 34% year-over-year and a 5% overall revenue increase, net income plummeted approximately 50% due to elevated spending on consumer subsidies and data centers. Analysts remain bullish with price targets around $190, but near-term margin concerns are weighing on the stock today.
