Shares of Chinese companies, including Nio Inc – ADR (NYSE: NIO) are trading lower following worse-than-expected second-quarter results from Alibaba.
Alibaba reported quarterly earnings of $1.74 per share which missed the analyst consensus estimate of $1.93. Alibaba also reported quarterly sales of $31.15 billion which missed the analyst consensus estimate of $32.05 billion by 2.8%. This is a 36% increase over sales of $22.84 billion in the same period last year.
Shares of Chinese companies were also trading lower on Thursday. Weakness was possibly in reaction to worse-than-expected guidance from Baidu and iQIYI.
