About Peter Lynch: Perhaps the greatest mutual fund manager of all-time, Lynch guided Fidelity Investment's Magellan Fund to a 29.2 percent average annual return from 1977 until his retirement in 1990, almost doubling the S&P 500's 15.8 percent yearly return over that time. Lynch's common sense approach and quick wit made him one of the most quoted investors on Wall Street. ("Go for a business that any idiot can run -- because sooner or later, any idiot probably is going to run it," is one of his many pearls of wisdom.) Lynch's bestseller One Up on Wall Street is something of a "stocks for the everyman/everywoman", breaking his approach down into easy-to-understand concepts.

Validea's Top Consumer Discretionary Stocks Based On Peter Lynch - 8/19/2025

Major economic data is out this morning, and it’s having an impact on trading futures. Inflation metrics and employment tallies — both sides of the Fed’s dual mandate — were represented. As a result, the Dow moved from +3 points directly ahead of the releases to -180 points currently, the S&P 500 went from -1 point to -30 points and the Nasdaq slid from +7 to -140. The small-cap Russell 2000 has already given up most of its gains from yesterday, -36 points.
Producer Price Index (PPI) Jumps 90 Basis Points in a Month
Headline PPI — the wholesale side of inflation, as opposed to the retail print Consumer Price Index (CPI) out Tuesday morning — jumped from 0.0% a month ago to +0.9% today, reporting for the month of July. Stripping out volatile food and energy costs, we’re still up 90 basis points (bps) on core PPI month over month. Ex-food, energy and trade, we have tripled expectations to +0.6%. These are now at the hottest levels since 2022.
Year over year is a slightly different story, as early in the year they were still over +3%. July’s headline PPI came in at +3.3% — the highest since February, but also up 90 bps from an upwardly revised +2.4% for June. Core PPI year over year soared +1.1% in one month to +3.7% — the highest level since March. Ex-food, energy and trade rose just 30 bps month over month to +2.8%.
To the extent producer prices lead into consumer prices — not completely, but undeniably part of the economic chain — we might expect higher CPI data as of the September print, which hits the tape roughly a week ahead of the next Fed meeting on interest rate policy. Depending on how high those results become may put the rate-cut being priced into the market currently in jeopardy. At very least, I don’t hear much about a pending 50-bps cut following this PPI report.
Jobless Claims Remain Range-Bound: 224K, 1.95M
Weekly Jobless Claims are also out this morning, being a normal Thursday. Initial Claims dipped -3K to 224K week over week, now sub-230K for 6 straight weeks. (Remember the first week of June was 250K with an upward arrow, but these numbers have methodically diminished since.) Recent lows were +219K four weeks ago.
Continuing Claims notched its 12-straight week above 1.9 million without tipping into the psychologically relevant 2 million longer-term weekly jobless claims. A headline of 1.953 million is down -15K from the downwardly revised 1.968 million the prior week — which, incidentally, is still the highest level we’ve seen since November 2021.
From mid-April through late May, weekly longer-term claims rose +120K. But they have remained frozen just below 2 million since. For some perspective, we spent even a longer time in the 1.8 million range of continuing jobless claims — from late summer 2024 to early spring this year. Also, longer-term claims do have an expiration date, though this is not a straight number across all circumstances.
Earnings Reports Ahead of the Open
Heavy machinery manufacturer Deere & Co. DE posted fiscal Q3 results this morning, outperforming on both top and bottom lines: earnings of $4.75 per share beat the Zacks consensus by +7.8%, while revenues of $10.36 billion outpaced expectations by +1% ahead of the bell. Yet full-year guidance was a little softer than investors were looking for, and shares are selling off -6% on the news. For more on DE’s earnings, click here.
A bevy of publicly-traded Chinese firms are also out with earnings results this morning. JD.com JD posted earnings of 69 cents per share for a +38% positive surprise, while Weibo WB surged past bottom-line estimates by +100% to +54 cents per share. NetEase NTES surpassed expectations by 3 cents per share to $2.07, and Vipshop VIPS beat by a penny to 57 cents. JD, Weibo and VIPS are all up in pre-market trading, while NTES is lower by -6%.

JD.com, Inc. Price and EPS Surprise
Let’s see how things have shaped up prior to this announcement.
Key Factors to Note for JD’s Q2 Earnings
JD.com’s second quarter 2025 results are expected to have been influenced by mixed operating conditions. The annual 618 Shopping Festival is likely to have provided revenue support across electronics, home appliances and general merchandise categories, aided by government trade-in subsidies. The food delivery business, which approached 20 million daily orders by the end of the first quarter, is expected to have contributed incremental top-line growth during the quarter.
However, several headwinds may have weighed on profitability. The 618 festival's extended promotional window required elevated marketing expenditures to defend market share in China's intensely competitive e-commerce landscape. Substantial investments in AI technology infrastructure and food delivery platform expansion represented considerable capital commitments that may likely pressure operating margins. The company's strategic focus on penetrating lower-tier markets, where pricing pressure remains particularly acute, may have further compressed margins despite volume gains.
JD Health faced increased competition in the online pharmaceutical sector, while JD Logistics continued absorbing costs from automation upgrades and capacity expansion. The broader Chinese consumer environment presented ongoing challenges, with macroeconomic headwinds expected to have offset some benefits from government stimulus measures.
The quarter's results will likely reflect JD's struggle to balance growth investments and competitive pressures against profitability targets, testing the sustainability of recent margin improvement trends amid an uncertain economic backdrop.

About Martin Zweig: During the 15 years that it was monitored, Zweig's stock recommendation newsletter returned an average of 15.9 percent per year, during which time it was ranked number one based on risk-adjusted returns by Hulbert Financial Digest. Zweig has managed both mutual and hedge funds during his career, and he's put the fortune he's compiled to some interesting uses. He has owned what Forbes reported was the most expensive apartment in New York, a $70 million penthouse that sits atop Manhattan's Pierre Hotel, and he is a collector of all sorts of pop culture and historical memorabilia -- among his purchases are the gun used by Clint Eastwood in "Dirty Harry", a stock certificate signed by Commodore Vanderbilt, and even two old-fashioned gas pumps similar to those he'd seen at a nearby gas station while growing up in Cleveland, according to published reports.

CECONOMY Confirms Advanced Talks With JD.com Regarding Possible Public Takeover

Alibaba Group BABA presents a concerning investment picture that should give potential investors serious pause. While the Chinese e-commerce giant reported revenue growth of 7% year over year to RMB236.5 billion and impressive adjusted EBITA gains of 36% in the last quarter, a deeper dive into the company's financial health reveals troubling trends that suggest investors would be wise to steer clear of this stock in 2025.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for fiscal 2026 earnings indicates a downward revision of 18.1% over the past 30 days to $8.58 per share. The market appears to be pessimistic about Alibaba's growth trajectory.
Alibaba Group Holding Limited Price and Consensus
BABA Faces Alarming Cash Flow Deterioration
The most alarming development is the dramatic deterioration in free cash flow, which plummeted 76% to just RMB3.7 billion. While Alibaba's revenues continued growing at 7%, the company's ability to convert that revenues into actual cash has severely weakened, raising serious questions about the quality of earnings and operational efficiency.
This cash flow collapse is particularly troubling given that Alibaba has been aggressively repurchasing shares, spending $11.9 billion on buybacks in fiscal 2025 alone, reducing share count by 5.1%. While share repurchases can benefit shareholders when executed from a position of strength, doing so while free cash flow evaporates suggests poor capital allocation decisions. The company appears to be prioritizing financial engineering over addressing fundamental operational challenges that are impacting its ability to generate cash from operations.
Decelerating Growth Momentum
The second major concern is the company's decelerating growth momentum across its core business segments. While management may highlight cloud revenue growth of 18% and customer management revenue growth of 12%, these figures mask a concerning trend of slowing expansion in Alibaba's most critical revenue streams. The 7% overall revenue growth represents a significant deceleration from the company's historical double-digit growth rates, suggesting that Alibaba's best growth days may be behind it.
Even more concerning is that this growth slowdown is occurring despite massive investments in artificial intelligence and cloud infrastructure. The company's AIDC segment showed 22% growth, but this represents a capital-intensive business with uncertain profitability prospects. Investors should question whether Alibaba's heavy spending on AI initiatives will generate adequate returns, particularly given the intense competition in cloud services from both domestic and international players.
The competitive landscape in China's e-commerce and cloud markets has intensified dramatically, with companies like ByteDance, Tencent, and emerging players eating into Alibaba's market share. The modest growth in Taobao and Tmall platforms suggests that Alibaba is losing its grip on the Chinese consumer market, which has been its primary competitive advantage for over two decades.

Valuation Concerns Amid Market Headwinds
The third compelling reason to avoid Alibaba stock centers on valuation concerns amid persistent market headwinds. Despite the company's challenges, Alibaba continues to trade at a premium valuation with a Value Score of C, indicating that the stock is not cheap relative to its fundamentals.
Competition in China's e-commerce and cloud markets continues intensifying. Domestic rivals like JD.com JD and Pinduoduo maintain pressure on e-commerce operations, while international cloud providers like Microsoft MSFT and Amazon AMZN compete for enterprise customers. With the stock generating only 1.1% returns over the past three months while underperforming the Zacks Internet-Commerce industry and the Zacks Retail-Wholesale sector, investors are paying elevated prices for a deteriorating business.
BABA Underperforms Peers & Sector in 3 Months
Image Source: Zacks Investment Research
Geopolitical tensions between the United States and China continue to create regulatory uncertainty for Chinese technology companies. These tensions have resulted in potential delisting risks, restricted access to U.S. capital markets, and ongoing scrutiny of Chinese tech firms' data practices. For U.S. investors, these geopolitical headwinds add an additional layer of risk that makes Alibaba an unattractive investment proposition.
China's broader economic challenges, including slowing consumer spending and deflationary pressures, create a difficult operating environment for e-commerce companies. While Alibaba maintains a strong net cash position of RMB366.4 billion, this massive cash hoard also suggests limited organic growth opportunities, forcing the company into financial engineering rather than productive investments.
Conclusion
The combination of deteriorating cash flow generation, slowing growth momentum, and persistent valuation premiums amid significant market headwinds creates a perfect storm for potential investors. While Alibaba's brand recognition and market position remain formidable, the financial trends indicate a company in transition facing significant structural challenges. Prudent investors should avoid Alibaba stock in 2025 and consider more attractive opportunities in markets with clearer growth trajectories and less regulatory uncertainty. The risk-reward profile simply does not justify ownership of BABA shares in the current environment. BABA stock currently carries a Zacks Rank #5 (Strong Sell).
