Alibaba Group - Analysts' Recommendations and Stock Price Forecast (2025)

MarketBeat calculates consensus analyst ratings for stocks using the most recent rating from each Wall Street analyst that has rated a stock within the last twelve months. Each analyst's rating is normalized to a standardized rating score of 1 (sell), 2 (hold), 3 (buy) or 4 (strong buy). Analyst consensus ratings scores are calculated using the mean average of the number of normalized sell, hold, buy and strong buy ratings from Wall Street analysts. Each stock's consensus analyst rating is derived from its calculated consensus ratings score (0 to .5 = Strong Sell, .5 to 1 = Sell, 1 to 1.5 = Reduce, 1.5 to 2.5 = Hold, 2.5 to 3.0 = Moderate Buy, 3.0 to 3.5 = Buy, >3.5 = Strong Buy). MarketBeat's consensus price targets are a mean average of the most recent available price targets set by each analyst that has set a price target for the stock in the last twelve months. MarketBeat's consensus ratings and consensus price targets may differ from those calculated by other firms due to differences in methodology and available data.

Alibaba Group
Bull Case

Here are some ways that investors could benefit from investing in Alibaba:

Alibaba's stock price is currently around $119.48, which may present a buying opportunity for investors looking for growth in the e-commerce sector.
Recent institutional investments indicate strong confidence in Alibaba's future, with several hedge funds increasing their stakes significantly in the first quarter.
The company has a solid market capitalization of approximately $285.08 billion, suggesting stability and potential for growth in the long term.
Analysts have a consensus rating of "Buy" for Alibaba, with many firms setting price targets above the current stock price, indicating potential upside.
Alibaba's low price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 17.27 compared to industry averages suggests that the stock may be undervalued, making it an attractive investment option.

Alibaba Group
Bear Case

Investors should be bearish about investing in Alibaba for these reasons:

Despite recent positive developments, Alibaba's stock has experienced volatility, with a 52-week range between $71.80 and $148.43, indicating potential risks for investors.
The company has recently cut its dividend, which may concern income-focused investors looking for consistent returns.
Regulatory scrutiny in China continues to pose risks for Alibaba, as government policies can impact its operations and profitability.
Market sentiment can be influenced by broader economic conditions, and Alibaba's performance may be affected by fluctuations in consumer spending.
With a beta of 0.22, Alibaba's stock is less volatile than the market, which may not appeal to investors seeking high-risk, high-reward opportunities.
