Alibaba Is Down 60% From Its All-Time High. Is This the Once-in-a-Decade Setup That Patient Investors Wait For?
Despite Alibaba's 60% decline from its all-time high, the article argues this is not a bargain opportunity. Net income fell 75.6% year-over-year while the company aggressively spends on AI infrastructure and instant retail, resulting in negative free cash flow. Cloud growth is accelerating but insufficient to offset these costs, and the company faces an expensive competitive battle domestically with no clear end date for spending.
EUFN vs KRE: European Banks vs. U.S. Regional Banks -- Which Financial Sector ETF Is the Better Buy?
EUFN (European financials ETF) and KRE (U.S. regional banks ETF) offer distinct financial sector exposure with different risk-return profiles. EUFN provides higher dividend yield (3.97% vs 2.10%), lower volatility, and stronger 5-year returns ($2,676 vs $1,377 on $1,000 invested), but carries higher fees (0.49% vs 0.35%). KRE offers lower costs and potential upside if U.S. regional banking recovers, but experienced severe drawdowns (52.7%) during 2023 banking turmoil. The choice depends on investor preference for stability and income (EUFN) versus higher risk/reward tied to U.S. regional bank recovery (KRE).
Why The Trade Desk Stock Plunged to (Another) 7-Year Low Today
The Trade Desk stock plunged 5.8% to 7-year lows after HSBC downgraded it to 'reduce' with a $10 price target. The analyst cited dismal Q2 results with only 3% revenue growth and a 17% EPS decline, well below expectations. The company faces structural headwinds from AI-driven competition and a shift away from the open internet, its core business.
Which Banking ETF Is the Better Buy: iShares' European EUFN or Invesco's U.S.-Focused KBWB?
The article compares two banking ETFs: iShares MSCI Europe Financials ETF (EUFN) and Invesco KBW Bank ETF (KBWB). EUFN offers higher dividend yield (3.9% vs 1.9%), broader geographic diversification across European banks, and lower volatility, while KBWB focuses exclusively on U.S. banks with concentrated exposure. The analysis concludes EUFN is the better buy for long-term investors due to cheaper valuations, higher income, and geographic diversification, despite KBWB's strong 2026 performance driven by investment banking and M&A activity.
