On Monday, Shares of Alibaba Group Holding Limited (NYSE:BABA), lost -5.64% to $66.12.
The rush that drove Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. to a record U.S. initial public offering has turned into a retreat a year later as the Chinese online retailer is beset by the slowest economic growth in 25 years and a domestic stock selloff that has shaken global investor confidence, according to Bloomberg.
The American depositary receipts, which surged as much as 75 percent from the initial listing price, tumbled 16 percent to $66.12 in August in their third straight monthly decline in New York. The drop pushed the ADRs below the debut price of $68 as short sellers boosted bearish bets on the stock to the highest since April. Bloomberg Reports
