Thursday, May 16, 5:41 PM
After-hours top gainers, as of 5:15 p.m.: SINA +4.7%. EA +2.7%. NBG +2.5%. AKAM +2.4%. DYAX +2.4%.
After-hours top losers: ARUN -13.7%. ADSK -5.2%. BRCD -4.9%. JWN -3.5%. EGLE -2.4%. Comment! [On the Move] - Thursday, May 16, 5:08 PM Sina (SINA): Q1 EPS of $0.02 beats by $0.05. Revenue of $126M (+19% Y/Y) beats by $8.5M. Expects Q2 revenue of $143M-$147M, above $142.7M consensus. Shares +4.6% AH. (PR) Comment! [Tech, Earnings, On the Move, Breaking News]
- Thursday, May 16, 12:10 AM Notable earnings after Thursday’s close: ADSK, AMAT, ARUN, BRCD, DELL, JCP, JWN, SINA, VNET Comment! [Earnings]
- Wednesday, May 15, 5:35 PM Notable earnings after Thursday’s close: ADSK, AMAT, ARUN, BRCD, DELL, JCP, JWN, SINA, VNET Comment! [Earnings]
- Friday, May 10, 9:48 AM An upgrade to Buy from Goldman's Piyush Mubayi helps Sina (SINA +2.6%) open higher. Mubayi expects the Alibaba deal to "enable Alibaba to direct [e-commerce] demand to Weibo," thereby improving monetization. Talking more broadly about the Chinese Web services space, he declares Alibaba, Baidu (BIDU), and Tencent (TCEHY.PK) to be in a 3-way leadership battle that "will likely shape the industry landscape over the next 5-10 years." Other recent deals (I, II) also seem to bear that out. Will Baidu make a deal or two to strengthen its social networking hand in this battle? (Jefferies Sina upgrade) Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
- Tuesday, May 7, 1:37 PM Sina (SINA -2.5%) gives back yesterday's gains after Tencent (TCEHY.PK) says it has reached "preliminary solutions" with Chinese mobile carriers (CHL, CHU, CHA) regarding its very popular WeChat mobile IM platform, which both generates heavy traffic and eats into text-messaging revenue (China Mobile's text revenue fell 4.8% last year). That's likely raising fears Sina might have to pay carriers for the traffic produced by Weibo, arguably WeChat's top rival. Tencent has said it's unlikely to charge WeChat users. Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
- Monday, May 6, 2:30 PM Chinese Internet stocks are surging after equities rallied in Shanghai and Hong Kong in spite of a major drop in China's services PMI. In addition to Qihoo (previous), winners include Renren (RENN +12.2%), YY (YY +13.3%), Baidu (BIDU +3.8%), Sina (SINA +2.8%), Sohu (SOHU +3.4%), Changyou (CYOU +4.3%), and Perfect World (PWRD +5%). YY is now up 20% since posting a strong Q1 report on Thursday afternoon; revenue rose 130.5% Y/Y to RMB315M ($50.7M), and EPS of $0.23 beat consensus by $0.06. Revenue is expected to hit RMB330M-340M in Q2. Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
- Tuesday, April 30, 10:31 AM Sina (SINA +1.9%) adds to yesterday's Alibaba-fueled gains after receiving an upgrade to Buy from Jefferies; the firm is raising its PT to $75. Wedge Partners notes the Alibaba deal, which gives the Chinese e-commerce giant the potential to raise its stake to 30% from an initial 18% in time, values Sina at ~$54/share, a little below its current trading price. But many on the Street are betting the monetization opportunities the deal opens up for Weibo will justify a higher valuation. (yesterday: I, II) Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
- Monday, April 29, 9:24 AM Sina's (SINA) partnership with Alibaba, long rumored, is aimed at Tencent (TCEHY.PK): the company's WeChat mobile IM platform has become a serious rival to Weibo, and its e-commerce sales rose 49% Y/Y in Q4 to $273M. Last month, Tencent announced plans to merge its QQ Mall and QQ Buy e-commerce sites to better take on Alibaba, and 2 weeks ago, it announced e-commerce integration for WeChat. Tencent has also launched an online payments service that competes with Alibaba's dominant Alipay and Sina's WeiboPay; the latter might now get shuttered. Alibaba's investment gives Yahoo (YHOO) an indirect 4.3% stake in Sina, which promises the deal will produce $380M in revenue over the next 3 years. Comment! [Tech, On the Move]

Monday, April 29, 9:15 AM
Premarket gainers: SINA +22%. CPTS +20%. PPHM +8%. NIHD +8%. THC +7%. PBR +6%. HCA +9%. HMA +5%. MCO +5%. RDN +5%.
Losers: NTE -27%. GORO -9%. NBG -8%. RVLT -5%. Comment! [On the Move] - Monday, April 29, 8:39 AM Sina (SINA) rockets 17% higher premarket after announcing a strategic alliance with AliBaba to "jointly explore social commerce and develop innovative marketing solutions" aimed at connecting merchants using Alibaba's e-commerce platform with Weibo users. Additionally, SINA says Alibaba has purchased an 18% stake in Weibo for $586M. (PR) Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
- Monday, April 8, 12:33 PM After a Chinese government official suggested Tencent (TCEHY.PK) will "have to pay fees" to mobile carriers (CHA, CHL, CHU) for the use of its extremely popular WeChat mobile IM/social networking platform, Tencent tells its users it's unlikely to charge for WeChat. Much like their European peers, Chinese carriers have seen their text messaging revenue pressured by the adoption on Web-based services such as WeChat. Sina (SINA) recently admitted WeChat, which now has 300M+ registered accounts, has been affecting Weibo usage. Comment! [Tech]
- Tuesday, March 26, 2:43 PM Much like Facebook, Sina (SINA) continues to experiment with ways to profit from a very popular social network, even if some of its actions could raise concerns about damaging the user experience. Marbridge Consulting reports Sina plans to launch Information Connect, an ad service that allows e-commerce firms to send two private messages per day to followers of their corporate Weibo accounts. The report comes shortly after Sina launched a payments platform for Weibo that competes with Alibaba's Alipay. Comment! [Tech]
- Wednesday, March 20, 10:57 AM Solid earnings from Tencent (TCEHY.PK) and a rally in Shanghai help Chinese Internet stocks trade higher. YOKU +3.8%. SINA +2.8%. QIHU +2.5%. SOHU +1.8%. YY +1.8%. NTES +1.5%. PWRD +1.7%. Tencent, which rose 1.5% in Hong Kong, reported a 53% Y/Y increase in Q4 sales to $1.96B, and a 37% increase in net income to $557M. Ad sales were better than expected, and value-added service sales (includes online games) rose 32%. Registered accounts for Tencent's WeChat mobile IM platform, which competes with Sina's Weibo, have topped 300M. Comment! [Tech, On the Move, Earnings]
- Tuesday, March 12, 1:23 PM A selloff in Shanghai and poor guidance from Perfect World (PWRD -7.9%) lead some Chinese Internet stocks to underperform. YY -7.1%. BIDU -2%. SINA -2.5%. GAME -2.6%. Citi has downgraded Perfect World to Neutral on sales and margin concerns. On the earnings call, management mentioned sales of PWRD's popular Torchlight 2 game are expected to see a Q1 drop. One title the company has high hopes for (Neverwinter) will launch in Q2, while two others (Saint Seiya and Swordsman Online) are expected around mid-year. Comment! [Tech, On the Move, Earnings]
- Wednesday, March 6, 11:02 AM Some Chinese Internet stocks sell off after Qihoo sees a post-earnings drop and Sohu (SOHU -9.4%) denies reports it's thinking of going private. CYOU -6.8%. SINA -4.4%. YOKU -5.7%. NTES -1.7%. Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
