Morgan Stanley's bullish outlook on Alibaba: idea 10/04/24

BATS:BABA   Alibaba Group Holdings Ltd.
Against the backdrop of recent underperformance in the stock market, Alibaba Group Holding Ltd, the Chinese internet retail giant, has seen its shares dip by approximately 7.5% since the year's start. Despite this, some analysts express a more optimistic outlook for the company's stock trajectory over the next twelve months.

Morgan Stanley's analysts project a potential uptick in Alibaba Group's stock value, forecasting a nearly 19% increase to 85 USD within the next year. This projection stands roughly 19% above the current trading price. Nonetheless, the firm adopts a "market perform" stance, acknowledging the ongoing macroeconomic pressures and the company's ongoing transformation efforts that have yet to reach fruition.

Let's turn our attention to a technical analysis of Alibaba Group Holding Ltd (NYSE: BABA) stock and explore potential trading strategies.

The Daily (D1) chart shows the establishment of a support level at 70.65 USD and a resistance marker at 78.30 USD. Following a breach of the downtrend line, stock prices are now navigating the channel defined by these support and resistance levels, indicating room for growth should the resistance be surpassed. Conversely, a breach below the support level could cause the stock to decline to a floor of 57 USD.

Initiating buys aiming for a target price of 80.65 USD can be considered in the short term. For those looking toward a medium-term horizon, maintaining long positions to reach 89.00 USD could be a strategic move.
