BABAAlibaba Group Holding Limited
Is it safe?
Mostly sound, with a caveat: insiders buying, but big price swings.
Insiders were net buyers (+$12.1M, 90 days to Oct 22, 2026). SEC Form 4 filings: officers and directors must report their own trades within two business days.
Large price swings, high volatility. Worst drawdown -80% · now 44% below its 52-week high.
Where this answer is blind. Altman sits structurally low for utilities and pipelines; Beneish runs high for fast growers, since sales growth alone lifts it; banks and REITs are excluded.
