KE Holdings Inc. (NYSE: BEKE), a leading integrated online and offline platform for housing transactions and services in China, saw its stock surge 5.14% in pre-market trading on Monday. The significant uptick comes amid a broader rally in Chinese ADRs, fueled by a mix of economic data from China and company-specific developments.
China's National Bureau of Statistics released a set of economic indicators for May, painting a mixed picture of the country's economic recovery. Retail sales growth outperformed expectations, rising 6.4% year-on-year, the fastest pace since December 2023. This robust consumer spending data has boosted investor confidence in companies exposed to China's domestic market, including KE Holdings. However, industrial output and fixed-asset investment figures fell short of projections, while the property market showed signs of continued weakness.
Adding to the positive sentiment, KE Holdings recently disclosed a series of share repurchases conducted in June 2025. This move signals management's confidence in the company's long-term prospects and their commitment to enhancing shareholder value. Furthermore, Chinese top leaders have pledged to do more to stabilize home prices, which could potentially benefit KE Holdings as a major player in the real estate services sector. As investors digest these developments, BEKE stock appears poised for an active trading session.
