Bloomberg article, er I mean "piece", about the competition between JD and Alibaba. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/arti...ibaba-top-brands-fight-china-e-commerce-giant Some excerpts: It was looking like a banner year for business in China. The U.S. clothing company was expecting a 20 percent jump in online sales on Alibaba's Tmall, thanks to the e-commerce giant's massive reach. But executives soon learned that what Alibaba gives, it can also take away. The company refused to sign an exclusive contract with Alibaba, and instead participated in a big sale promotion with its archrival, JD.com Inc. Tmall punished them by taking steps to cut traffic to their storefront, two executives told The Associated Press. They said advertising banners vanished from prominent spots in Tmall sales showrooms, the company was blocked from special sales and products stopped appearing in top search results. The well-known American brand saw its Tmall sales plummet 10 to 20 percent for the year. ... The competition between Alibaba and JD.com is so infamous in China — and so dirty — it's been dubbed the "great cat-and-dog war," after Tmall's black-cat mascot and JD.com's white dog. Tmall and JD.com have different business models but they are increasingly pushing onto each other's turf. Alibaba's online marketplaces connect buyers and sellers. Alibaba earns money from advertising, as well as commissions and fees. JD.com runs a similar marketplace but, like Amazon, also buys products from brands, then sells and distributes the merchandise itself. Alibaba has taken aim at JD.com's long-standing dominance in electronics, while JD.com hopes to cut into Tmall's core apparel category. Both have expanded into groceries and poured hundreds of millions of dollars into acquisitions to extend their reach into brick-and-mortar businesses. The result is an escalating turf fight that carries a chilling message for brands: Either you're with us or against us. The Chinese have a name for this unwritten rule, "er xuan yi," choose one of two. "'Choose one of two' is a tacit understanding that has been reached by everyone, but you do not say it directly," said Zhuo Saijun, who until 2015 was a general manager of e-commerce research at Analysys Ltd., a Beijing-based big data consultancy. "This is certainly a problem for the development of retail sales channels. It is a business ethics problem, and this is how monopolies develop." Some policymakers have raised concerns about monopolistic tendencies in Chinese e-commerce and called for more effective regulation and enforcement.
Been rising back. The revenue is there. Once they start turning regular profits it's lift off. I can see a market cap ten times what it is today years down the road.

Looks good as long as $41.60 holds into Labor day and $39.33 into year-end. $44.02 is the level I would keep an eye on into Labor day to see if there is enough momentum to sustain the move off the recent lows.
Back to price level of the end of 2016. Also dropped to the bottom of a channel; would be surprised to see it push even more down right now.

The Stockaholics search is still acting wonky I see. I was able to pick up this thread on a google search but not on the forum. Anyway I went ahead and merged for ya @stock1234 so there aren’t duplicates.
Thanks Cy Sorry I did use the search box and typed in "JD" and couldn't find this thread somehow, my mistake
Haha looks like there was yet another JD thread that was created by the late TTT. I’ll merge into this thread instead since the other one didn’t have many posts in it.
Np! Yeah the forum search here is really out of whack unfortunately. It’s never really worked since day #1 when we moved into here that I can remember and none of the workarounds work either it seems.
You need to search for at least 4 characters. The asterisk (*) symbol can act as a wildcard as well. Doesn't really work for this one as it's got the very short company name in the form of a website. For example though, it's normally better to search the COMPANY name instead of the ticker if it's shorter than 4 characters. If you're not sure how to spell it, just take 4 characters that you know are in a row. If the company is something like Lowe's, when the thread was created you aren't sure if it had the apostrophe or not, so in order to find it for sure you would search for "Lowe*" without the quotation marks obviously. The asterisk will act as a wildcard and basically search for anything with "lowe" in it. Doesn't matter what comes after. If you want to search for the middle of a company name or something you would add asterisks before and after. So for somethign like Dick's sporting Goods, you could search for "*sport*" and it would find it. Sure would be nice to get it tweaked though so searches didn't have to be 4 characters long in order to find anything.
Thanks @T0rm3nted Maybe make it a sticky thread somewhere on how to do the searches here, I can remember for now but I probably will forget how to do it again in a few months
Hmm, looks like there is already an exiting thread about this over on the support board. https://stockaholics.net/threads/forum-search-trick-if-you-cant-find-a-stock.507/ I think we can go ahead and pin that thread to the top there for future reference.
