Alibaba Long term AnalysisWe can see a pretty hurt #BABA stock due to all fear in the markets with China and the war, for long-term traders, this could represent a good opportunity. I try to make the chart as clear as possible, remember that this is for long-term trades, right now there´s a lot of volatility in the markets. With that scope in mind and because of volatility, the SL is extended to -34%, so manage your entry position size well. In their fundamentals, BABA is undervalued. Remembering that resistance areas become support areas when the chart moves positive, I recommend moving your SL with these new support levels and managing your exits as comfortably as you need them to be.

What Will A Geopolitical Compromise Means For Markets?Henry Clay was a US Senator from Kentucky, the Speaker of the House of Representatives, the US Secretary of State, and a Presidential candidate in the 1800s. His legacy and nickname were “The Great Compromiser” for his involvement with the Missouri Compromise, the Compromise Tariff of 1833, and the Compromise of 1850. As Henry Clay understood, any great compromise means that both sides at the negotiating table must come to an agreement that makes them uncomfortable or incomplete. The price of an asset is always the correct price A messy geopolitical landscape Option one- A Great Compromise- High Odds Option two- A prolonged conflict Option three- The unthinkable In 2022, the geopolitical temperature has risen to the highest level since WW II. On February 4, Chinese President Xi and Russian President Putin met at the opening ceremony of the Beijing Winter Olympics. The leaders signed a $117 billion trade agreement, but the watershed event was the “no-limits” cooperation understanding. Twenty days later, after the end of the Olympics, Russia invaded Ukraine, launching the first major war on European soil in over three-quarters of a century. Many analysts believe the Russian invasion sets the stage for Chinese reunification with Taiwan. Markets reflect the economic and geopolitical landscapes. Volatility in markets across all asset classes has increased, and uncertainty is the market’s worst enemy. The war, sanctions, retaliation, and a Chinese-Russian alliance threatens the status quo over the previous decades. The price of an asset is always the correct price As we learned in early 2020 in nearly all asset classes, bear markets can take prices to levels that defy logic and rational and logical analysis. The same holds on the upside as price spikes can reach unthinkable heights. The moves to the upside or downside compel many market participants to sell what they believe are tops or buy when they think the market cannot go any lower. Picking tops or bottoms is more about ego than making money, as the effort contradicts to prevailing trends. Picking a top or a bottom is a statement that the current price is too high or too low, which is always a mistake. Market participants can be wrong, but markets are never wrong. The price of any asset is always the right price because it is the level where buyers and sellers agree on a value in a transparent marketplace. Declaring a market top or bottom is a contrarian statement as it goes against the prevailing trend. A messy geopolitical landscape Two years ago, the world faced a common enemy as COVID-19 ignored borders, race, religion, political ideology, and all of the other factors that separate countries and people. In February and March 2022, the world faces new and daunting challenges: The Chinese and Russian leaders shook hands on a “no-limits” alliance. Russia invaded Ukraine, starting the first major war in Europe since World War II. Ukraine continues to put up fierce resistance. The US, NATO allies in Europe and allies worldwide slapped sanctions on Russia. Russia retaliated with export bans and other measures. North Korea test-fired ICBM missiles. Iran fired missiles near the US embassy in Iraq. Russian missiles came within miles of the Polish border. An attack on Poland triggers article five of NATO’s charter- An attack on one member is an attack on all. China and Russia stand on opposite sides of the conflict from the US and Europe. China plans to reunify with Taiwan against their will. On the US domestic scene, the US remains divided along political lines with mid-term elections in November. The central bank liquidity and government stimulus that stabilized the economy during the pandemic ignited an inflationary fuse before the geopolitical landscape deteriorated. The war in Ukraine only exacerbates price increases as Russia is a leading world producer of raw materials. Europe’s breadbasket in Ukraine and Russia is now a mine and battlefield at the start of the 2022 crop year. Russia and Ukraine typically supply one-third of the world’s wheat and other crops. They are also leading fertilizer exporters, causing problems in other worldwide growing regions. In 2022, the war will lead to rising prices, falling supplies, and the potential for famine and civil uprisings. Historically, food shortages have caused many revolutions. The 2010 Arab Spring that began as food riots in Tunisia and Egypt caused the sweeping political change in North Africa and the Middle East. Meanwhile, the Biden administration pledged to address climate change by supporting alternative and renewable fuels and inhibiting the production and consumption of fossil fuels. US production declined in 2021. After decades of working to achieve energy independence from the Middle East, US policy handed the pricing power to the international oil cartel. Since 2016, Russia has had an increasing role in OPEC’s production policy. In 2022, the cartel does not move unless Moscow agrees to cooperate. Oil prices were already rising when Russia invaded Ukraine, and they moved over $100 per barrel after the attack. Meanwhile, other fossil fuels have moved higher. Coal traded to a new all-time peak. US natural gas rose to a multi-year high, and European and Asia gas prices rose to record levels. Rising energy prices fueled inflation, and the war has poured fuel on an already burning inflationary fire. The war in Ukraine is less than one month old, and the human toll is rising. Tensions are at the highest level in decades. Markets are nervous, and the developments on the geopolitical over the coming days and weeks will dictate the direction of markets across all asset classes. I see three potential outcomes. Option one- A Great Compromise- High Odds In the current standoff, neither side wants to give an inch. The Russian leader faces disgrace or worse if he loses to an inferior military but impassioned Ukrainian population, many of who would choose death over capitulation. The US and Europe do not want to appease Russia like the UK’s Nevil Chamberlain appeased Hitler in the 1930s. China may support Russia, but the world’s second-leading economy has close economic ties with the US and Europe. A Henry Clay-inspired great compromiser could emerge and come up with a solution where Russia, China, the US, Europe, and the rest of the world walk away from the negotiating table unhappy but with a workable solution. I believe, and it is more than a bit of wishful thinking, that this is the high odds result of the current geopolitical mess, and the result will go down in history as the great compromise of 2022. A great compromise would likely lead to a significant stock market rally and a commodity correction. Option two- A prolonged conflict A prolonged conflict where Russians fight a long and bloody war against Ukrainian forces will devastate the world economy and peace. Russia may capture territory, but it is clear President Putin will never capture the souls of the Ukrainian masses. The Russian brutality over the past weeks will never be forgotten. President Putin did not count on the passionate resistance Russian troops encountered across Ukraine. The longer the battle and the more brutal the weapons, the greater the price for Russians controlling the territory over the coming years. Millions of refugees have left the country, but that leaves over 40 million Ukrainians; most now consider Russians their mortal enemy. A long battle will weaken the Russian military and the Russian leader abroad. A prolonged conflict will cause sanctions to collapse Russia’s economy, causing domestic problems for President Putin and his government. Moreover, skirmishes are likely to break out worldwide. In the early days of the war in Ukraine, North Korea and Iran flexed their military muscles. With Europe and the US focused on Ukraine, China could use the opportunity to seize Taiwan. A prolonged conflict would weigh on US stocks and likely lift commodity prices to higher highs. Option three- The unthinkable The final option is the nuclear one, which is low odds, but a highly frightening scenario. If Russian aggression spreads across the Ukraine border into Poland or any NATO member country, it will trigger Article five that states an attack on one is an attack on all. The US and Russia have the most nuclear weapons, which increases the potential of MAD or mutually assured destruction. In this scenario, it does not matter how markets react as the world would face a disastrous situation. I believe that a great compromise is on the horizon, which would cause markets to stabilize. However, the extent of the compromise is critical as it must address the current situation in Ukraine and Taiwan and threats from North Korea and Iran. Anything short of a comprehensive understanding between the world’s powers will cause years of rising tension and threats to the nearly eight billion people that inhabit our planet. Where is Henry Clay when the world needs him?

Nio - Watch out for the break out of the channelHello everyone, China said Wednesday that it would keep its stock markets stable and take measures to boost economic growth in the first quarter, according to the state-run Xinhua News Agency. The government should roll out policies favorable to capital markets while being cautious in introducing contractionary measures, according to the Financial Stability and Development Committee under the State Council, during a meeting chaired by Vice Premier Liu He. This is huge, because the reason why Chinese stocks were down so much was due to delisting fears, unstable political environment and the recession looming over us. While the recession and the war between Ukraine and Russia is not going anywhere as of yet, the improvement in the policies of China and significantly reducing the fear of delisting is something that will have an affect on all the beat-up Chinese equities, at least in the short-term. Nio is trading inside a decending channel and we need to watch out for a break and possible retest of the last resistance. In case it does not break though, we are headed down to the 10$ mark. Good luck!

So long and thanks for the fish!There is getting to be a solid case for a significant move lower between now and the end of the month. The Hang Seng index broke down below March 2020 lows A Gap in SPY/SPX from Apr5th 2021 is looking to get filled, the same gap when the Overnight RR broke out. You know.. right after the prime brokers threw Archegos under the bus. Russia is still afraid to open MOEX and thinks 10 billion (what usd?) is going to keep Russian equities a float. MGA lost over 6Billion in market cap just for having a couple factories in Russia. The effects of prolonged negative gamma are starting to show, but don't think hedge funds or market makers are suffering to much. I would venture a guess that banks have been waiting since apr 2021 to buy the dip. There will likely be a thrust lower to fill the apr 5th gap between now and April 1st. trade safe. stop blowing shit up.

CHINA BIG DIP analysis + TENCENT (e-commerce, fintech, gaming)Hello Traders, Investors and Speculants :), You probably heard about Tencent holdings investment group.: These days you can hear some Fundamental analysis about Naspers / Prosus tranfer (spin-off) from South Africa exchange to Amsterdam. Many super-investors (value investors) like Guy Spier / Mohnish Pabrai are most likely increasing their position in Tencent directly or via Prosus shares. ++ others are buying CHina stocks // Charlie Munger = BABA, Ray Dalio increasing positions, Nitin Saigal fully invested in China ...). So Why would you need another analysis if they are alredy buying? This thread will be purely my opinion about oportunity for Buying into Tencent and many China located gigants + why I think, we are near the temporary bottom of correction = of Wave A !! If you look at biggest China companies, almost all of them reached All-Time-High from November 2020 till February 2020 = Potential TOP of China growth-tech bubble. (this time it could be e-commerce, finTech, Gaming companies + Crypto of course...) Lets take a look at few of them, this thread will continue in comments so stay tuned. TENCENT as one of biggest Chinese companies (acting more like ETF based on around 700 holdings). AliBABA KWEB - China internet ETF MEITUAN (Btw biggest Tencent position) SEA Limited: NIO: Whats interesting even some Non-China Fintech companies reached their ATH around this time like StoneCo (Brazil).: SOuth America - Mercado Libre - MELI: While in the US, Covid related restrictions and fear of investors was probably slightly delayed by several Months: is still near thSPX, AMZN, and other FAANG ggants are still near ATHs, some of the FinTech and e-commerce companies start to fall. PAYPAL: SQuare: Conclusion + Investment Thesis: 1) Be very carefull with catching the falling knife. Wait for pure Buy signals and signals of reversal at least at 3D/1W charts. Also consider buying only with very good RRRatio + clear setup. 2) China could be very good oportunity for short term BUY-LONG setups when you will be able to count all subwaves of Wave A but still be very carefull. (Around 1-3 months from now). 3) US and western - world conutries will probably continue to fall in dozens of % DOWN. (US is delayed, it could take around 3-6 months to reach bottom and point of maximum fear of retail and small VC investors.) Patience folks, patience.

Short Term Long; Long term ShortIt's clear Baba's RSI on the weekly is forming a base, as well as coming into a long term support trend. When the overwhelming majority are looking short/bearish the scales then tilt and no one is left to sell and only buyer are left to drive up price action. Short term accumulation zone is $75-95, buying long term LEAPS for March 2023. Not financial advise; short term if Baba establishes a minor trend change it will likely run. Keep in mind it will not be out of the woods until we clear $180-200, at which point the fib retract will favor a symmetrical triangle over the potential descending triangle currently being formed. Conclusion: Baba's chart has a lot of work to do before it can change the long term trends, however sentiment is overwhelmingly negative regarding sentiments that do not affect the companies fundamentals. I see a great entree level at present moment with take profits at $125 & 150 Trust the charts and ignore the media FUD, price actions is king! GLHF!!

CHINA COMPOSITE INDEX China and future expansion. BTCWho doesn't understand what this Chinese index is. The SSE Composite Index is one of the most important indices in Asia. The SSE Composite Index has been calculated by the Shanghai Stock Exchange since 1990. The SSE Composite Index includes shares of all companies listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange in lists A and B. Conventionally all these companies can be divided into several main sectors: finance, materials, production, energy, food products, health care and telecommunications. The financial sector is the undisputed leader, followed by companies in the manufacturing sector. The SSE Composite is an excellent barometer of the Chinese economy because it is calculated on the basis of daily share prices. The chart has a large timeframe of 1 month. A huge symmetrical triangle with a base of about 470% has formed on top of the trend. At the moment the index value is cornered with minimal volatility, we are in the final phase of forming the figure. Soon there should be a decoupling, perhaps a "steam down" before a new run. 13 . It is worth noting that the Paralympic Winter Games in China end on March 13. Perhaps after they are over, China and not only (it is first of all) will move to intensify its "military exercises" and statements. Recall, 20 02 2022 (22222) ended the Winter Olympic Games in China (not the Paralympic), and 24 02 2022 Russia (unofficially with Belarus) began a sharp phase of exercises in Ukraine. In fact, the launch and preparation of the "non-exercise" began 22 02 2022 (222222). China may repeat it and it will naturally have a very strong effect on its indices and economy. Bitcoin will react very strongly for obvious reasons. The wealth of the Chinese is not comparable to that of the Russians. Also note how the head and shoulders were formed before the triangle began to form. Which has a very strong resemblance to the price formation on the BTC/USD pair at the moment (July-March). Make a comparison. Then, as you can see, there was just a vertical increase in the index (the Chinese economy) by a fantastic 470% from quite high values initially. That's the kind of thing few people expected at the time. The comparison with bitcoin and the former index values before the vertical rise of 2005-2007 is just an observation no more, but very illustrative. BTC/USD Main Trend. Timeframe 1 month. Notice what zone the price is in now. BTC/USD Now 07 2021 - 03 2022 Timeframe 1 week. CHINA COMPOSITE INDEX Timeframe 1 month. Comparable area before a fantastic vertical rise of a huge percentage. CHINA COMPOSITE INDEX Projection of achieved index targets to potential targets with the same % on BTC/USD

Is the Evergrande crisis over?The looming collapse of China Evergrande Group (HKG:3333), the world’s most indebted property developer, has roiled financial markets for months, threatening a contagion with far-reaching implications on China and the wider economy. In the early months since Evergrande’s financial crisis came to light, Beijing stayed mum on the issue, although the People’s Bank of China pumped billions of yuan in liquidity in what was seen as an attempt to quell liquidity concerns. Over this time, Evergrande’s stock price slipped 95%, from ~25HKD to ~1.5HKD, where it has stagnated for all of 2022. Evergrande’s massive debt pileup Evergrande, once China’s second-largest real estate developer, is drowning in more than $300 billion in debts to suppliers, contractors, creditors and investors. The company’s crisis partly stemmed from the introduction of Beijing’s "three red lines" rule in 2020 that made it harder for developers to seek bank financing to fund their projects. Another Lehman Brothers moment The large exposure of Chinese banks like Minsheng Bank, Ping An Bank and Everbright Bank to Evergrande prompted many financial watchers to predict that Evergrande's debt crisis could extend beyond China’s property and financial markets, warning that it could spill over to the global markets similar to the Lehman Brothers collapse that resulted in the 2008 global financial crisis. These fears intensified as Evergrande missed payments on a number of onshore bonds. The world’s three major credit rating agencies have already declared the developer to be in default after missing on its bond interest payments late last year. However, some analysts have played down concerns of Evergrande being the next “Lehman moment,” as they expect Beijing’s policymakers to prevent the crisis from being a systemic risk. Beijing steps in to limit fallout To minimize the potential impact of Evergrande’s looming collapse, Beijing has stepped up its efforts, but without a state-led bailout in sight. Back in October, the Chinese central bank said the risk of Evergrande’s liabilities spilling over to the country’s financial sector is "controllable,” while confirming reports that relevant government agencies and local governments have been carrying out risk disposal and resolution work to mitigate a potential contagion. In recent weeks, a number of news outlets reported that some banks in China have lowered mortgage rates, offered subsidies and allowed developers to access their funds on escrow in an attempt to revive the housing market. Beijing also started urging state-owned developers to acquire some projects of troubled builders to help ease the sector’s liquidity crunch. Fitch Ratings recently said Chinese developers are poised to see more small-scale mergers and acquisitions and the impact on buyers’ leverage are predicted to be small "as they select projects with promising returns." Light at the end of the tunnel It may take months or years for the property sector to recover as developers continue to struggle with a cash crunch that prevents them from meeting their debt obligations. However, with Beijing’s subtle approach in reviving the property market, Evergrande’s recovery may be drawing near. In February, new home prices in 100 cities in China rose for the first time in two months, further recovering from the slump in November when prices contracted for the first time since 2015. Policy reforms could encourage home-buying this year as the government included the healthy development of the real estate sector in its government work report unveiled by Premier Li Keqiang over the weekend. Li said authorities will seek to promote the commercial housing market and stabilize house prices this year. Foreign investors that purchase bonds and other securities from Chinese builders should closely monitor developments surrounding Beijing’s policies for the sector.
