Michael Burry Just Abandoned Alibaba Stock. How to Play BABA Stock from Here.

Alibaba (BABA) stock is under renewed pressure after Michael Burry exited his position and shifted his money toward Chinese rival JD.com (JD). The famed “Big Short” investor said he no longer plans to buy Alibaba back unless the stock falls by roughly half, raising fresh questions about valuation, dilution, and the company’s aggressive artificial intelligence spending.

BABA stock closed at $119.44 on Tuesday after plunging 8.5% in a single session following Alibaba’s latest financing announcement.
