Alibaba (BABA) is trading near $137 after a bout of AI-related headlines and leadership departures rattled sentiment. With a $328.2B market cap, a P/E of 18.0 and a dividend yield near 0.76%, the stock looks reasonably valued for a company with dominant commerce and growing cloud and AI franchises. I see a tactical long opportunity with an entry at…

They view AI as an incremental enhancer of industrial software offerings rather than an existential risk, noting that enterprises purchase domain expertise and services in addition to code.
