Alibaba (BABA) Stock May Be 37% Undervalued After Qwen Licensing Shift

Get insights on thousands of stocks from the global community of over 7 million individual investors at Simply Wall St. Alibaba Group Holding stock has delivered a 49.2% gain over the past three years, yet valuation checks suggest the market price may still sit below an intrinsic value estimate based on a Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) approach and on earnings multiples that both screen the shares as undervalued. That mix of a solid medium term return with indications of a discount is drawing attention to what is currently priced in around Alibaba's AI push and the legal and regulatory issues now

Open Weights, Closed Revenue Ceiling: Alibaba’s Qwen 3.8 License Is a Platform Play, Not a Gift

Alibaba's release of the Qwen3.8-2.4T-A95B open weights is not a surrender to the open-source ethos; it is a calculated exercise in platform capture. By abandoning the permissive Apache 2.0 license used for previous iterations in favor of a restrictive, custom Qwen3.8-Max License, Alibaba is drawing a hard line around the commercial value of its frontier-class models. This move, which saw Alibaba shares jump +7% in Hong Kong and +4.5% on the NYSE, signals that while the company is willing to distribute weights to drive adoption, it intends to tax or control any entity that attempts to build a

Top global stories this week: BP, SoftBank among notable names

US stock indexes ended the week higher supported by a rally in mega-cap technology stocks, a rebound in Treasury securities and robust corporate earnings. By the end of the week, geopolitical tensions involving Iran pushed crude oil prices toward $78 per barrel, raising fears that higher energy costs could stoke inflation and delay central bank rate cuts.

Apple says Mac users in China can connect to Alibaba's Qwen AI service

By Eduardo Baptista BEIJING, Aug 8 (Reuters) - Apple has published a guide explaining how eligible Mac users in mainland China can connect Alibaba's Qwen artificial-intelligence service to ‌the U.S. tech giant's Siri digital assistant and Writing Tools feature. The Mac-specific arrangement ‌could help Apple compete in China's AI PC market, where it has been losing market share as domestic ​manufacturers such as Lenovo have promoted locally developed AI features. Here are some details: • Qwen is Chinese ecommerce giant Alibaba's family of generative-AI models, which can create text and images a

Alibaba Pioneers Revenue Share on Open-Weight Models — the First Chinese Lab to Tax Deployment

Alibaba is fundamentally altering the economics of artificial intelligence by pioneering a revenue-share model for its upcoming open-weight models. With the release of Qwen3.8 expected around August 10, 2026, the company is moving to formalize a monetization layer that targets the deployment of these models rather than relying solely on API access. This shift marks a departure from the industry standard where open-weight releases have historically served as loss leaders or marketing vehicles to drive cloud infrastructure consumption. Until this pivot, Alibaba's commercial strategy for its AI p

How the page works

How to read the score

The score shows direction

It describes the weighted balance of qualifying headlines. A score of 50 can mean balanced news or that there is not enough evidence; the status label explains which.

Confidence is separate

Confidence measures depth, source breadth, direct relevance, freshness and agreement. It does not rise merely because the tone is extreme.

Price is confirmation

Weekly price response, trend and fair-value position test whether the market is accepting or rejecting the news. They never rewrite the news score.

What the page does

It measures news already published. It is not a forecast, recommendation or price target.

Evidence context
