About Alibaba Group Holding Limited
Chinese e-commerce titan—Taobao/Tmall domestic marketplace and AliCloud (China's largest cloud) are the dual profit engines, plus international commerce and logistics. Recently initiated dividends and buybacks. Low beta (~0.43) is deeply misleading—actual volatility is high, driven by China regulatory action, U.S.-China geopolitics, and unpredictable policy events rather than S&P correlation.

BABA — lower-band read with the weakness spread across dimensions rather than concentrated in one. The composite picture, not any single indicator, is the limiting factor.

Calculator assumptions

Cash-secured puts require holding cash equal to strike × 100 shares as collateral. Strike defaults to ~5% OTM, snapped to typical exchange increments. Premium defaults to ~2% of strike — adjust to your real expected fill. Annualized ROC = (premium ÷ collateral) × (365 ÷ DTE). CSP risk is single-name concentration: experienced put-sellers typically diversify across 4–6 underlyings rather than committing the whole account to one ticker. Continuous-rolling projections assume capital can be re-deployed after each expiration and that comparable premiums remain available — actual results vary with market conditions, assignments, and rolls.

This page is the research tool — you search any ticker, get the score, configure your own setup.
