Alibaba Files For IPO | Zero Hedge

No doubt they are huge. I've bought stuff from them because even after shipping it was cheaper than buying in the US, and now here in Ecuador that trend will definitely continue.

If I were interested in this IPO I would be paying particular attention to corporate governance besides valuation.

Reason being: Alipay dealings
Summary:
- Jack Ma transferred Alipay into an external entity that is almost 50% owned by him and out of the control of Alibaba.
- Alibaba agreed to compensate its partners/co-shareholders Softbank and Yahoo in the occurrence of a liquidity event for Alipay.
- As IPO Nears, Alibaba in Talks With Spinoff About Reacquiring a Stake in Alipay.

Raises some corporate governance questions imho.

it is a Chinese company thus its fate rest on Chinese govt's whim, it's hard to value their share.

Yahoo need to up their game if they're to seriously compete with GOOG, I think this cash is going to be re-utilised quickly, interested in seeing what they have in mind.
