What’s Cooking in Ecommerce Sector?
Recent years have seen the boom of eCommerce stocks at an unprecedented speed. The pandemic has proven to be a major catalyst behind this trend, however, apart from that factor; the rise of eCommerce was always on the cards since the internet was invented. During the year 2021, the eCommerce sector saw record sales of $7.3 trillion, and is expected that they would grow to over $7.3 trillion in 2025.
DDL Under Scrutiny
In recent days, DDL has remained under scrutiny from Haidian Market Supervision Bureau in China, owing to food safety concerns. They included the selling of dead fish and recycling expired vegetables. The local market ordered the company to fulfill the food-related responsibilities, upon which the company apologized to the concerned departments. The whole fiasco saw a wave of criticism from the general public and concerned departments, while also having an impact on the stock price.
Final remarks
In the last couple of days, DDL has seen a monumental increase. Investors are hoping that Chinese authorities are looking to alter the rules of confidentiality relating to offshore listings. This in turn could prove to be a major step toward resolving the audit-related disputes between US and China, ultimately impacting DDL in the long run. In the short term, however, the stock is expected to show volatility as US-China relations remain grim.
