Better Chinese Tech Stock: Alibaba or Tencent
Alibaba Group (NYSE: BABA) and Tencent (OTC: TCEHY) are two of China's top tech companies. Alibaba is China's largest e-commerce and cloud services company, while Tencent is a market leader in the social networking, advertising, gaming, streaming media, cloud, and fintech markets.
I compared these two stocks last August, and claimed Tencent's better diversified business, higher operating margins, and stronger earnings growth made it a better buy than Alibaba. But back when I made that call, I hadn't expected China to launch a sweeping crackdown on its top tech companies.
