Trip Crashes On Probe: Would Regulatory Shock Continue?

Trip.com Group plunged 17% yesterday after China’s market regulator launched a formal investigation. The sharp move has raised concerns over regulatory risk just as travel demand was stabilizing. Internationally, Trip.com operates mainly through Trip.com, its flagship overseas brand offering flights, hotels, rail, and vacation packages across Asia and Europe. With sentiment shaken, investors are debating whether the sell-off reflects fundamental risk—or an emotional overreaction to regulatory headlines. After a 20%+ drop, does regulatory risk justify further downside for Trip.com?

🐯 Trip.com Crashes on Regulatory Probe: Real Risk — or a Classic China Fear Flush? ✈️📉 Trip.com Group plunged ~17% in a single session, erasing weeks of gains after China’s market regulator launched a formal investigation. The timing couldn’t be worse — travel demand was finally stabilising, sentiment was improving, and investors were rotating back into China consumption plays. So why such a violent reaction? Because in China tech, regulation is never just regulation — it’s memory. ⸻ 🧠 Why the Market Panicked (Psychology Matters) This sell-off wasn’t about numbers. It was about PTSD. Investors still remember: • 2021 tech crackdowns • Sudden rule changes • Profitable platforms becoming “policy problems” overnight So when the word “formal investigation” appears, markets don’t wait for detail
Interesting situation.  Earn too much then pay something back to authority to survive Sudden drop raise the volatility and good premium in options I think this situations worth a short strangle to test the water

🌟🌟🌟The situation around $Trip.com Group Limited(TCOM)$ $TRIP.COM-S(09961)$ is one of those classic China tech moments where strong fundamentals collide with regulatory overhang. Analysts expect 4 to 6 months of investigation based on previous cases like Alibaba and Meituan.  Also potential fines of 3 to 4% of annual revenue. There is also possible rectification of pricing tools, which could reduce monetisation rates and advertising revenue. That is why the stock sold off sharply. At the same time , the Spring Festival travel peak has begun. This is the single most important seasonal catalyst for China's travel industry. Trip.com has the largest market share and would certainly benefit from this

The Anti-monopoly Law stipulates that by implementing monopoly agreements or abusing dominant market position, operators will have their illegal income confiscated and be fined between 1% and 10% of the sales volume of the previous year. Alibaba (09988) once demanded "one out of two" for merchants on the platform due to abusing its dominant market position, was fined 4% of the 2019 turnover by the Municipal Supervisory Administration in April 2021, involving 18.228 billion RMB, setting the highest anti-monopoly fine at the time, and requiring a 3-year anti-monopoly rectification. $阿里巴巴-W(09988)$  $攜程網(TCOM)$
