Reading a lot of comments over the last week, everyone is saying we will Tank.

Does anyone believe the opposite?

What are we expecting vs what are we hoping to see from this earnings? 🤷‍♂️

Alibaba Group's official next earnings report is scheduled to be released on August 20, 2026. The company will announce its June Quarter 2026 (Q1 Fiscal 2027) financial results before the market opens and hold an earnings conference call

Was there some news? 🤷‍♂️

HONG KONG, July 21 (Reuters) - Ant International, an overseas affiliate of the Jack Ma-founded ‌Chinese fintech firm Ant Group, has raised $1.2 ‌billion in its latest equity fundraising as it seeks to expand.
Affiliates Ant Group and Alibaba Group participated in the private funding round, the company said on Tuesday, without disclosing the size of their ‌commitment.

Ant International plans ⁠to accelerate its expansion in the merchant payment business, account management and other ⁠financial services for enterprises globally.
The Singapore-based firm is a digital payments and fintech firm that was spun out of China's Ant Group as an ‌independently operated company in 2024.
Prior to the funding round, Ant International was valued at $10 billion, Reuters reported last month, citing a source.

Good for BABA… in a few years? Haha

Chinese universities have eliminated 12,000 arts, humanities, and languages degree programs.
This restructuring aims to align higher education with China's goal of an AI-driven economy.
Nearly a third of all university programs in China have been impacted, affecting millions of students.
Between 2021 and 2025, 10,200 new undergraduate tech-focused programs, such as 'embodied intelligence', were introduced.
This educational shift in China is part of a global trend, with countries like India, UAE, Kazakhstan, Spain, and the UK also integrating AI into their national curricula.

What’s everyone’s thoughts on the EBay bid and it being tied to Ryan Cohen?

Would Alibaba want any part of this?

I think the timing is inline with BABA earnings this week too?
