Alibaba Group Has Decided To List In The US Or Cause A Sensation.

Alibaba group has decided to list in the US. The group is an e-commerce giant in China. Its turnover and net income exceed the sum of Amazon and eBay. In the past few months, people have been speculated that Alibaba group will be in Hong Kong Listing. The company's financing may be as high as 15 billion US dollars. The company's valuation is as high as 200 billion dollars.

According to reports, Max Wolf, chief economist and strategist at Citizen VC, said: "according to our estimate, it will be the largest initial public offering in the history of technology enterprises. It will be the largest initial public offering in the year, and will be the largest initial public offering in the year of Chinese Enterprises. The scale of the financing is very large, no matter which standard is measured, it may break the record of financing scale. "

The Alibaba group's initial public offering plan is Chinese companies going to the United States this year. list A component of the tide. Sina micro-blog, a twitter like platform, began trading on the Nasdaq stock market on the 17 day. Alibaba's dead rival Jingdong website also applied for listing in January with a financing amount of US $1 billion 500 million.

It is believed that the IPO of Alibaba group may cause a sensation. This prospect has now sparked fanaticism among investors, which is similar to that of the Facebook and twitter websites in 2012 and 2013.

People often compare Alibaba group with billion dollar company and PayPal. But Alibaba group has a wide range of business, including banking, maps, cloud computing, online music services and video production. Alibaba also owns shares of sina micro-blog, which will be listed in the United States this week.

Ma Yun led 18 people to create Alibaba group in 1999. He used to work as an English teacher in Hangzhou. The group's early investors were Yahoo Corp. Yahoo Corp is still holding about 1/4 of the group. Japan's Softbank Corp is now a major shareholder of the group, holding 37% of the shares. Yahoo Corp released 15 Quarterly Bulletin revealed that Alibaba group's revenue in the 4 quarter of last year soared 66%, to 3 billion 60 million U.S. dollars, net profit increased more than doubled over the same period last year, reaching 1 billion 360 million U.S. dollars.

According to PrivCo, a private financial intelligence provider, this makes the market value of Yahoo Corp's 24% shares reach US $42 billion - more than Yahoo Corp's own market capitalization. Wolf said: "in the very small scale of Alibaba, Yahoo Corp invested heavily in it. Looking back, this investment is very smart. "

Now the situation is reversed: the advantage of Yahoo Corp has disappeared. Alibaba Has grown into a global giant.

The report said that choosing to list in the US is very attractive to Chinese enterprises, especially the technology enterprises in the country. China's mainland stock market is currently in deep trouble, and stock trading is subject to a variety of control measures, including the daily ups and downs of stocks after first day trading, not exceeding 10%.

Joseph Schuster, founder of Chicago IPOX Schuster, an initial public offering research and investment company, said that in general, many initial public offerings in China can get a good start, and share prices will go forward for a few days, but then they will fall rapidly. Schuster said that the Chinese enterprises to the United States to stimulate the market also played a role: the recent selection of listed companies outside the mainland of China's stock has risen.

Nevertheless, the Alibaba did not rule out the possibility of applying for listing in China. When the group announced its plan for listing in the US in March, it said that the initial public offerings in the United States "would make the company more transparent and internationalized, thus further realizing the long-term vision and ideal of Alibaba." In the future, Alibaba will also actively participate in the return to the domestic capital market and share the growth of the company with domestic investors. "
