Q: What are your thoughts on JD.Com as a rival in the market place to Alibaba?
Motley Fool presented an interesting article recently to suggest that JD.Com's potential is/may be greater than Alibaba's given that JD's business model is more akin to Amazon. While BABA deals mainly in secondary merchants, as in EBAY, JD is selling its own products. The article cited impressive growth percentages showing how JD is outstripping Baba and is a force with which to contend.
I own both BABA and AMZN, but was thinking of making the switch out of BABA into JD. Any thoughts on their potential growth, their financials, etc. .... Notwithstanding your "non coverage of US cos" , which is always understood. Thanks.
