Trade Ideas

Competition easing, margins improving, target 113.
Meituan's earnings beat expectations as competition from Alibaba and JD scales back subsidies. Delivery margins are stabilizing around mid-20%, and the unit loss per order is narrowing. Management implies delivery could break even in Q2. The improved subsidy environment, higher average order value, and market share gains support profitability improvement. Citi has a target price of 113, implying substantial upside from current levels.

Valuation attractive, buy recommended.
Tencent is attractively valued when excluding its investment portfolio and cash. Despite debates about its AI strategy, the underlying valuation is compelling. Citi has a buy recommendation.

Model launch drives revenue growth.
MiniMax is a Chinese AI foundation model company. The launch of M3, a model with architectural breakthrough and multimodal agentic capabilities, is expected to drive strong revenue growth. The company previously guided 150 million revenue and the M3 should accelerate adoption and spending. Citi has a buy recommendation.
