$Alibaba(BABA)$ $NVIDIA(NVDA)$ 🚀📊🔥 Did You Know? BABA +112% YTD vs NVDA +33%… Let That Sink In 🔥📊🚀

🧩 Relative Outperformance

I’m looking at the divergence that few are talking about. Alibaba ($BABA) has surged +112.83% year-to-date, dwarfing Nvidia’s (+32.87%) performance. That chart doesn’t lie. The “China AI fever” trade has turned BABA into an outperformance engine, even eclipsing the undisputed leader of the semiconductor cycle.

🌍 Macro & Sector Context

Today’s ETF heatmap confirms where the strength lies: China exposure via $FXI (+1.52%) and leveraged $YINN (+4.51%) are pulling capital while U.S. defensive dividend plays like $SCHD lag (-0.73%). Technology leadership remains intact with $SOXL up +1.22% and semis via $SMH up +0.47%, but the surprise star is Chinese tech momentum that refuses to cool off.

📈 Technical Precision

On the 4H chart, BABA closed at $178.11. Price action is riding firmly above its 13/21 EMA stack, supported by a clean Keltner Channel expansion and Bollinger squeeze break. Each dip into the mid-bands has been bought aggressively, confirming trend conviction. The $164–$168 region acted as consolidation; now it’s a confirmed launchpad with volume following through.

🤝 Strategic Catalyst

The kicker: Alibaba surged +9% on news of a new partnership with Nvidia. This creates a two-way halo effect. For NVDA, it strengthens demand continuity inside China despite export restrictions. For BABA, it secures positioning as China’s homegrown AI cloud operator with tier-one compute support.

🎯 Outlook

With BABA printing higher highs and momentum funds rebalancing toward China, the stock is set to remain in the spotlight. If NVDA is the “picks and shovels” of AI, BABA is fast emerging as the “gold rush miner” in China’s digital economy.

👉❓Who would’ve guessed at the start of the year that BABA, not NVDA, would be the real AI breakout winner? Do you think this relative outperformance can extend into year-end rebalancing, or will we see mean reversion kick in?

    That BABA chart is wild, I didn’t expect it to be flexing harder than NVDA this year. The way it ripped off that partnership news just makes it feel like China’s whole AI wave is starting to run hot. Honestly looks like it could keep pressing way past that 178 close

    BABA’s run is straight insane, like it’s been eating NVDA’s lunch in 2025. That +112% YTD just shows how crazy China’s AI momentum is right now. The volume spikes around the EMAs make it feel like buyers aren’t done yet, feels like there’s still gas in the tank plus vibing with $JD.com(JD)$ 🐉🇨🇳

  • 📘I can’t get over that chart, BC. Seeing BABA up 112% YTD compared to NVDA’s 33% really reframes how we should be thinking about leadership. It reminds me of how ASML sometimes gets overlooked until it rips, and this looks like one of those moments.

    📊What stands out to me is the market rotation you pointed out. FXI and YINN strength lines up with the BABA run, and when you put it against NVDA’s steady but slower climb it really highlights where capital’s flowing. That $178 close feels like a strong signal.
