Those guys are having a mental nervous breakdown.

The number is a number.

Since the number is irrefutable, as 2 is always greater than 1 in simple math, that is end of story.

But since they do not like that story, the number is fake.

At this point, fantasy becomes reality.

Either you wind up in jail, or lose all your money, or in a straight jacket inside a padded room.

:oops:

Kuaishou is the main rival to TikTok. Good to see them listing in Hong Kong instead of US. This is the world's biggest tech IPO since Uber, since Ant Financial was brought down after Xi Jinping murdered Jack Ma. Their market cap is now US$170 billion. Kuaishou focuses more on third and fourth tier cities, more farmer, local/grassroots content.

ByteDance is considering to list DouYin, the Chinese version of TikTok. By the valuation of Kuaishou, DouYin should garner a valuation of $350 billion, since DouYin has over 600 million average daily users while Kuaishou has less than 300 million and it's much more profitable. Now DouYin is only the short video part of ByteDance, which also has other pieces including Jinritoutiao, the news aggregator, and Xiguan Video, the long-form video, etc., before even to consider TikTok. ByteDance was valued at $180 billion last time it did the private placement. Taken all the pieces together, ByteDance should be valued at least $500 billion.

By comparison, the valuation of Ant at $330 billion before its IPO got canned a few months ago doesn't sound all that extraordinary any more.

It's a crazy world now.

This is why tech war is the new cold war. China is doing so well in the tech space that it’s giving America fits.

No, just stupid business management and strategy. Typical build it, attract investment, got public, then welp our business model doesn’t work at all.
Starbucks has not been particularly successful in NZ which makes wonder what's so special about it that makes people want to copy them.
