Tencent Holdings: A 12.8% Re-Rating on an Unconfirmed WeChat Agent, While Q1 Disclosed RMB8.8 Billion of AI Drag
Tencent monetizes Weixin/WeChat, games, advertising, payments and cloud while holding RMB912 billion of disclosed investments before discounts. Q1 2026 domestic games slowed to 6% growth while Marketing Services held 20%, and new AI products cut non-IFRS operating profit by about RMB8.8 billion in the quarter. Rating Hold: at HK$478.80 the shares sit above the HK$451 conservative sum-of-the-parts value, leaving no margin of safety three days before Q2 results.

Alibaba: March-Quarter Cloud Revenue Rose 38% While Consolidated Adjusted EBITA Fell 84%, Free Cash Flow Turned to a RMB 17.3 Billion Outflow, and USD 122.25 Sits Above Conservative Value
Alibaba is China's broadest merchant and consumer platform, now spending marketplace profits to become a capital-intensive combination of commerce, instant delivery and AI computing. Cloud Intelligence revenue rose 38% in the March 2026 quarter while consolidated adjusted EBITA fell 84% to RMB 5.1 billion and quarterly free cash flow turned to a RMB 17.3 billion outflow, with quick-commerce unit economics and cloud invested capital both undisclosed. Rating Hold: the second engine is real, but at USD 122.25 the price sits above conservative value and the margin of safety is recorded as none.

Meta Platforms: Revenue Grew 28% While Free Cash Flow Fell to 784 Million Dollars, and 556.71 Dollars Buys the Base Case With No Margin of Safety
Meta Platforms turns global consumer attention into performance advertising across Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp and Messenger, and that cash funds an AI infrastructure build plus the continuing Reality Labs program; FY2025 revenue was 200.97 billion USD. Second-quarter 2026 revenue grew 28% to 60.80 billion USD on 14% more ad impressions and a 12% higher price per ad, yet capital investment of 31.08 billion USD absorbed 97.5% of operating cash flow and cut free cash flow to 784 million USD, with FY2026 capex guidance of 130 to 145 billion USD. Rating Hold: on estimated normalized owner earnings of 45 to 60 billion USD the shares trade at 24 to 32 times rather than the reported 21 times, so 556.71 USD sits inside the 510 to 690 USD hold zone and 18% above the 470 USD conservative value, leaving no margin of safety.

Amazon: AWS Demand and AI Commitments Are Real, but 230.86 USD Still Asks Investors to Fund a 200 Billion USD Capex Cycle Without a Margin of Safety
Amazon is a compound platform whose commerce and logistics network feeds a high-margin advertising and subscription layer, while AWS supplies the profit. 2025 revenue reached 716.9 billion USD, yet trailing free cash flow collapsed to 1.2 billion by Q1 2026 as capex climbed toward a projected 200 billion USD for the year, even as AWS reaccelerated to 28% growth. Rating Hold: the AI demand evidence is now partly contracted and real, but at 230.86 USD the stock sits about 28% above the conservative fair value of 180 USD with no margin of safety.

Wix.com: The Partner Channel Is Where AI Shows Up First, and 58.55 USD Prices a Permanent Erosion the Disclosed Evidence Does Not Yet Support
Wix runs a cloud platform for website creation, commerce and small-business software, monetized through recurring subscriptions plus attached payments and business tools. 2025 revenue reached 1.99 billion USD and Q1 2026 bookings still grew 15%, but non-GAAP operating margin fell to 5% from 21% and the June 8 6-K conceded a sharper-than-expected slowdown in the Partners channel. Rating Cautious Buy: at 58.55 USD the market is pricing a permanent AI-driven erosion that the disclosed evidence does not yet support.

Meituan: A High-Quality Franchise With Temporarily Broken Earnings
Meituan is China's largest local-services platform, monetizing food delivery, in-store and hotel services, and instant retail, with 2025 revenue of RMB364.9 billion. A subsidy war with Alibaba and JD flipped Core Local Commerce from RMB52.4 billion of 2024 operating profit into a loss and pushed the group to a RMB23.4 billion net loss in 2025, even as platform GTV and transaction volume kept growing. Rating Hold: the franchise stays high-quality and the balance sheet strong, but at HK$68.50 the shares lack a clear margin-of-safety cushion until Core Local Commerce proves post-war profitability can stick.
47/100
JD.com: A Stronger Retail Core Discounted for the Cost of Transition
JD.com is China's largest self-operated online retailer, built on a supply-chain-first model spanning first-party retail, marketplace services, logistics, health and industrial procurement. Its retail core is strengthening, with JD Retail operating margin up to 5.6% in Q1 2026 and net service revenue growing 20.6% against just 1.0% product growth, yet group profit and cash conversion are obscured by heavy food-delivery and overseas investment, while listed-subsidiary stakes worth about US$17.7 billion anchor a sum-of-the-parts case. Rating Cautious Buy: the market discounts the cost of transition more than it credits a stronger retail core, large buybacks and visible listed stakes.

Pinterest : trésorerie solide, risque sur le mix d'ARPU
Pinterest est une plateforme de découverte visuelle et d'intention d'achat qui monétise 631 millions d'utilisateurs actifs mensuels presque entièrement par la publicité, au croisement de la recherche, du social et du commerce. Le scénario haussier repose sur une réelle puissance de trésorerie : un chiffre d'affaires 2025 de 4.22 milliards de dollars, en hausse de 16%, et un flux de trésorerie disponible de 1.25 milliard de dollars pour seulement 32.4 millions de dollars d'investissements, ce qui laisse l'action à environ 9 à 10 fois le flux de trésorerie disponible ; mais la monétisation est dangereusement concentrée : l'ARPU des États-Unis et du Canada s'élève à 7.12 dollars contre seulement 0.20 dollar dans le reste du monde, d'où provient désormais l'essentiel de la croissance des utilisateurs. Notation Surveiller : la génération de trésorerie renforcée et la monétisation portée par l'IA sont réelles, mais l'action manque encore d'une marge de sécurité claire face aux risques liés au mix d'ARPU, aux partenaires tiers et au cycle de la publicité de détail.

Snap Inc. : trésorerie réparée, revalorisation publicitaire non prouvée
Snap Inc. exploite Snapchat, un réseau de communication entre amis proches, pensé d'abord pour la caméra, qui compte 483 millions d'utilisateurs actifs quotidiens monétisés principalement par la publicité, avec une jambe d'abonnement Snapchat+ en forte croissance et un pari coûteux sur la RA grand public à travers Specs. La tension centrale tient à ce que le chiffre d'affaires du T1 2026 a progressé de 12% pour atteindre environ 1.53 milliard de dollars, alors que la publicité de base n'a crû que de 3% à environ 1.24 milliard de dollars et que les autres revenus ont bondi de 87% à environ 285 millions de dollars, tandis que les utilisateurs quotidiens nord-américains reculaient de 94 millions à 92 millions et que les fondateurs conservent plus de 99% des droits de vote. Note Surveiller : la conversion en trésorerie et les abonnements s'améliorent, mais la croissance de la publicité de base reste trop faible pour justifier une revalorisation complète.

Reddit : analyse approfondie
Reddit est une plateforme de contenu généré par les utilisateurs bâtie autour des communautés subreddit, portée par la publicité et vendant aussi des données d'entraînement pour l'IA, avec un chiffre d'affaires 2025 de 2.203 milliards d'USD dont la publicité représente environ 94%. La croissance est solide mais les inquiétudes l'accompagnent : aux États-Unis, les DAUq n'ont progressé que de 7% au T1 2026 tandis que le trafic déconnecté grimpait de 26%, et les résumés IA de Google érodent l'entonnoir de distribution de la recherche. Le titre a déjà reculé d'environ 40% depuis son sommet de 270.71 USD jusqu'à 162.10 USD. Note Conserver : l'histoire est assez grande mais le risque de point unique est élevé ; attendre un repli vers la zone d'achat idéale de 110-130 USD.

Kuaishou Technology: A Deep Dive
Kuaishou is China's second-largest short-video platform, monetizing through advertising, e-commerce, and live streaming, while betting on Kling AI video as a second growth curve. In 2025 adjusted net profit reached 20.65 billion RMB on a P/E of roughly 9.9x, yet Q1 net margin fell from 14.0% to 10.0% even as Kling's single-quarter revenue topped 650 million RMB and grew over 300%. Rating Cautious Buy: the core business is cheaply valued with solid cash flow, and the Kling option is not yet fully priced in.
53/100
Baidu: A Deep Research Study
Baidu is a Chinese internet platform anchored on search-advertising cash flow and pivoting toward AI cloud and Robotaxi. In Q1 2026 AI-related revenue reached 13.6 billion yuan, clearing half of the core business for the first time, with AI cloud infrastructure up 79% year over year, even as online marketing fell 22% and profit conversion remains unproven. Rating Watch: the AI cloud is accelerating, but the advertising decline and unproven profit conversion have yet to deliver an adequate margin of safety.

Coupang (CPNG.US) Zen Horizon Research Report
Coupang is South Korea's largest e-commerce platform, built around its Rocket Delivery first-party logistics moat, with more than 14 million Rocket WOW paid members. The core thesis is that Product Commerce remains a strong cash-generating base, while Eats, Play, fintech, Farfetch, and Taiwan expansion add optionality but also investment drag after a major customer data incident. Research rating Watch: a durable logistics compounder, but the 34 million-customer data incident, Q1 2026 operating loss, margin deleveraging, and Naver/Temu competition leave earnings visibility too low for a buy rating.

Sea Limited (SE.US) — Rapport Zen Horizon
Sea Limited est la plus grande plateforme Internet d'Asie du Sud-Est, dont le siège est à Singapour et qui est cotée au NYSE ; elle fait tourner trois moteurs en parallèle : Shopee (e-commerce), Monee (finance numérique) et Garena (jeux vidéo, avec Free Fire). Le chiffre d'affaires de l'exercice 2025 a atteint USD 22.9 milliards (+36%) et le bénéfice net GAAP USD 1.6 milliard (+260%), première rentabilité à grande échelle ; Shopee détient environ 53% du GMV d'Asie du Sud-Est, au premier rang des six marchés, tandis que l'encours de prêts de Monee a crû de 71% en un an pour atteindre USD 9.9 milliards. Au T1 2026, la croissance du chiffre d'affaires a encore accéléré à +47%, mais le BPA GAAP de 0.67 a manqué les attentes, et le titre a été divisé par deux depuis son plus haut sur 52 semaines de 199, autour de 84. Note Surveiller : un compounder aux fondamentaux solides et à la valorisation correcte, dont le potentiel de hausse dépend de la confirmation aux T2/T3 que la qualité des profits tient.

PDD Holdings Deep-Dive Research Report
PDD is a cash-rich, asset-light platform company whose domestic business is easier to underwrite than Temu. The core debate is whether Temu's profit, fulfillment, and compliance costs can become verifiable enough to support a higher multiple. Research rating Watch: strong cash flow, but insufficient visibility on Temu and a limited margin of safety for new capital.

Expedia Group Deep Value Investment Analysis
Expedia is the world's second-largest OTA platform, centered on lodging distribution with fast-growing B2B. Its valuation is below Booking and Airbnb, but its moat is weaker and real owner earnings are lower than headline FCF. Rating Watch: a reasonable fair buy range is $140 to $160, leaving the current price without enough margin of safety.

Tencent Holdings : étude de recherche approfondie
L'écosystème WeChat et les flux de trésorerie du jeu sont extrêmement solides, l'IA a commencé à améliorer l'efficacité publicitaire, et la valorisation actuelle ne l'intègre pas encore pleinement. Fourchette d'achat équitable de 380 à 430 dollars de Hong Kong ; le principal risque inverse est une hausse des capex IA alors que la monétisation de la publicité et du cloud prend du retard. Notation Achat prudent : une vache à lait mature qui cherche une deuxième revalorisation grâce à l'IA et à l'écosystème WeChat, valorisée avec prudence plutôt qu'avec une prime.

VeriSign From a Long-Term Owner's Perspective
VeriSign is a high-quality internet infrastructure franchise built around .com and .net registry economics. Its moat is strong and its cash flow is exceptional, but the current valuation already prices in much of that certainty. Research rating Watch: a durable compounder, yet the ideal buy zone is $180 to $220 rather than the current price.

eBay as a Long-Term Business Asset: A Value Analysis
A mature marketplace with 2025 net revenue of $11.1 billion and double-digit GMV and revenue growth in Q1 2026. A good company, but at $115 the stock sits at the upper edge of the optimistic range; the ideal buy zone is $50-65. Rating: Watch.

Uber Technologies Deep Value Research
Uber is a global multi-sided platform with 202 million MAPCs and 13.567 billion trips, 2025 revenue of $52.017 billion, adjusted EBITDA of $8.73 billion, and an asset-light model that is now releasing real free cash flow. The core thesis is that Uber has become a better business, but a 6.2% FCF yield versus a 4.57% 10-year U.S. Treasury yield leaves limited risk compensation amid regulatory, AV, and M&A uncertainty. Report rating Watch: a high-quality platform that is better kept on a priority watchlist until the fair buy range of $50 to $60 offers a thicker margin of safety.

PDD Holdings In-Depth Research Report
A highly efficient global value e-commerce platform: a 2025 operating margin of 21.6% and roughly 9.6x PE are not expensive. But Temu has lost its small-parcel policy windfall, while domestic price wars and instant retail squeeze the profit center; with a fair buy range of $70–82 and insufficient margin of safety, Rating Watch: high cash flow and low valuation coexist, but Temu's policy regime and profit center await repricing.

Akamai: Edge Infrastructure and Security Platform Research
Akamai runs 4,300+ edge PoPs as a three-line composite (Delivery cash cow + Security high-growth + Cloud Infrastructure high-capex option), with 2025 revenue of $4.208 billion; at the current $147.23, its 3.2% FCF yield sits below Treasuries, so no margin of safety exists. Rating: Watch.

Netflix: A Long-Term Business Owner's Perspective
Netflix has shifted from burning cash to generating it reliably, with 2025 revenue of $45.18 billion and Owner Earnings of roughly $9.3-9.5 billion. But at $89.30 the stock trades at about 35-40x conservative Owner Earnings, leaving little margin of safety; the ideal buy zone sits at $50-65. Rating Watch: a high-quality platform that is fully priced today and rewards patience over purchase at the current level.

MercadoLibre : une analyse d'investissement à travers le prisme d'un propriétaire d'entreprise de long terme
Une plateforme de grande qualité à effet de composition, bâtie sur le volant d'inertie commerce–paiements–logistique–publicité–crédit de l'Amérique latine, mais à environ $1677 l'action intègre déjà un scénario optimiste, impliquant plus de 58x les Owner Earnings avec une marge de sécurité insuffisante. La juste valeur se situe à $750–1000, avec une fourchette d'achat plus attrayante de $600–800. Note Surveiller : une excellente entreprise, pas un excellent point d'entrée.

Airbnb Value Investment Deep-Dive
Airbnb is a high-quality, cash-generative, asset-light platform business. At roughly $135.84, however, the stock lacks a sufficient margin of safety, with fair intrinsic value estimated at $135 to $165 and an ideal buy range of $95 to $115. Rating Watch: a durable platform worth following closely, but current pricing leaves limited downside protection for conservative value investors.

Booking Holdings: A Deep Value Investing Analysis
The global leader in accommodation OTA, asset-light with high cash flow and free cash flow that has long exceeded net profit; at about $157 the price offers almost no discount to conservative intrinsic value but a discount to fair value, so Cautious Buy, with an ideal buy range of $130-150.

PDD Holdings: A Deep Dive on Long-Term Value
A high-quality, asset-light platform with strong cash generation, but single-segment reporting leaves Temu's economics opaque, while the VIE structure and cross-border regulation layer on discounts. At a conservative 10x Owner Earnings the valuation looks reasonable rather than cheap, with no clear margin of safety; fair range is $95-125 and the current $94.97 sits near the lower bound. Rating Watch: a strong cash machine whose structural complexity and price still argue for watching rather than committing heavily.

Meta Platforms : étude d'investissement value en profondeur
La plateforme composée la plus puissante au monde, conjuguant distribution de l'attention, publicité à la performance et graphe social, avec un chiffre d'affaires 2025 de 201 milliards de dollars, un flux de trésorerie opérationnel de 115.8 milliards de dollars et un FCF de 43.6 milliards de dollars ; pourtant les prévisions d'investissements 2026 atteignent 125 à 145 milliards de dollars. Au cours actuel de 611.21 dollars, le titre se paie environ 35x les Owner Earnings, sans marge de sécurité claire. Note Surveiller : une excellente entreprise dont le prix actuel paie d'avance une décennie de croissance de haute qualité au lieu de l'acheter avec une décote ; prix d'achat raisonnable de 330 à 450 dollars.

Alibaba Group Long-Term Value Investment Deep Dive
Alibaba is a high-quality portfolio of core assets, anchored by Taobao and Tmall plus Alibaba Cloud. FY2026 marks a heavy reinvestment phase in cloud and instant retail, with free cash flow turning negative while VIE and China-U.S. regulatory discounts continue to cap valuation. Report rating Watch: at around US$133, the stock sits near the upper half of fair value, with an insufficient margin of safety.

Tencent Holdings: A Long-Term Owner's Investment Analysis
A high-quality platform business spanning the WeChat ecosystem, gaming, fintech, cloud, and an investment portfolio, with real cash flow, a robust balance sheet, and a deep moat; but the business is not simple, and at the current price the margin of safety is not obvious. Research rating Hold: a top-tier compounder trading from fair to slightly attractive, not a clearly undervalued bargain.
