Movement Alert｜BABA-W Rises 3.11% in Regular Trading, Sale of Lingxi Interactive Frees Up Capital for AI Push Amid Multiple Catalysts

Market Focus

Aug 18

On August 18, BABA-W rose 3.11% in regular trading, trading at 126.3 HKD/share, with turnover of 7.982 billion HKD. Multiple positive catalysts converged to drive the stock higher ahead of its August 20 earnings release.

On the news front, Alibaba formally confirmed the sale of its gaming unit Lingxi Interactive to Trustar Capital (CITIC Capital) for over 1.5 billion USD (approximately 10.1 billion RMB), freeing up capital to accelerate its AI strategy. The company targets AI-related revenue of 100 billion USD within five years. Simultaneously, Alibaba Cloud launched its third data center in Korea with Agentic AI services, expanding global infrastructure to 30 regions and 104 availability zones.

Additional tailwinds included Duan Yongping's H&H International disclosing a new position of approximately 301,400 shares in Alibaba during Q2, and options market activity showing concentrated bullish sentiment with a 358,900 USD dual-call combination targeting 150 USD strike prices. Market attention now turns to the upcoming quarterly earnings report on August 20, with focus on AI and cloud business growth trajectory.
