Meituan’s sharp drop really reflects its underdog status as it pits itself against giants like Alibaba. I won’t bet on this underdog as in China, it is often hard to re-capture the market once more when giants have gotten to it. Financially, Alibaba has more resources to pump into this price war should it drag on and Meituan might not win. For China/ HK markers where the stock price is volatile, I prefer to bet on winners.


Nvidia is really not in the same league as Meituan. Nvidia has established itself as the market leader with many fighting for its chips. Even with the rise of Alibaba, Nvidia still has a massive market and demand outside of China and has no lack of business. This is unlike Meituan which has yet to establish its international presence that it can comfortably step away from the competition in China.


If Meituan establishes itself in the international market, then I would bet on it even if it is the underdog in China.
