Alibaba Group Holding Limited (NYSE: BABA)

Alibaba Group Holding Limited (NYSE: BABA) is the massive e-commerce platform from China whose primary revenue source is its large digital marketplace.

That marketplace – similar to Amazon’s – connects merchants and consumers and allows for transactions between the two. There’s no arguing that Alibaba absolutely dominates the Chinese e-commerce market which, with 1.4 billion people, is the world’s largest.

Also like Amazon, Alibaba has launched a cloud computing segment that offers artificial intelligence and an integrated suite of cloud-based services that is still in its early growth stages.

This growth opportunity from the company’s cloud-based services – combined with its massive e-commerce presence – makes Alibaba a strong potential play for investors at virtually all risk levels.
