Behind the Scenes of JD.com's Latest Options Trends

JD.Com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JD#NASDAQ">JD</a>) saw its stock fall 3.6% to $32.39 Thursday morning following comments from China's Ministry of Commerce <a href="http://China Denies Trump's Trade Talk Assertion, Calls For Abolition Of 'Unilateral Tariffs': 'No Factual Basis'">denying any current trade negotiations</a> with the United States.
What To Know: As a leading e-commerce platform heavily reliant on cross-border logistics, consumer sentiment and global supply chain efficiency, JD.com stands to benefit significantly from tariff reductions or renewed trade cooperation between the world's two largest economies.
Hopes for a thaw in U.S.-China trade tensions had <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/04/44970416/scott-bessents-china-de-escalation-scoop-delivered-to-wall-street-early-at-closed-door-event-2-2-trillion-in-gains-later-questions-arise-if-retail-investors-were">lifted investor sentiment</a> earlier in the week after reports of potential de-escalation, including remarks from U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and President Trump hinting at tariff reviews. 
However, the ministry's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/44973283/china-denies-trumps-trade-talk-assertion-calls-for-abolition-of-unilateral-tariffs-no-factual-basis">firm dismissal</a> of any ongoing talks shattered those expectations, raising concerns about prolonged tariffs on Chinese exports.
For JD.com, which depends on affordable imports, stable U.S. investor confidence, and a robust domestic consumer base tied closely to macroeconomic conditions, the lack of trade progress adds pressure. The company&#8217;s margins and cross-border sales could be further strained if tariffs persist.

Investors can gain exposure to&nbsp;JD.com by&nbsp;investing&nbsp;in the iShares China Large-Cap ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FXI#NASDAQ">FXI</a>).
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy JD Stock</h2>
By now you're likely curious about how to participate in the market for JD.com &#8211; be it to purchase shares, or even attempt to bet against the company.
Buying shares is typically done through a brokerage account. You can find a list of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-stock-trading-platforms">possible trading platforms here.</a> Many will allow you to buy &#8220;fractional shares,&#8221; which allows you to own portions of stock without buying an entire share.
In the case of JD.com, which is trading at $33.56 as of publishing time, $100 would buy you 2.98 shares of stock.
If you're looking to bet against a company, the process is more complex. You'll need access to an options trading platform, or a broker who will allow you to &#8220;go short&#8221; a share of stock by lending you the shares to sell. The process of shorting a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock">stock can be found at this resource.</a> Otherwise, if your broker allows you to trade options, you can either buy a put option, or sell a call option at a strike price above where shares are currently trading &#8211; either way it allows you to profit off of the share price decline.

Top 10 Trending Stocks On WallStreetBets As Of April 22, 2025 (Via Swaggy Stocks)

Chinese retail investors are flocking to their domestic stock market in a display of patriotism amid <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/04/44868280/us-listed-chinese-stocks-face-250-billion-forced-selling-risk-as-delisting-fears-emerge-what-investors-need-to-know">escalating trade tensions with the United States</a>.
What Happened: Since U.S. President Donald Trump announced &#8220;reciprocal tariffs&#8221; on April 2, often referred to as &#8220;Liberation Day,&#8221; Chinese individual investors have been joining state-backed institutional buyers to defend their stock market against foreign pressures, reported Reuters.
&#8220;The goal isn&#8217;t to make money. It&#8217;s about contributing to my country,&#8221; said Cao Mingjie, a home designer from Guangdong province who began investing after the tariff announcement. &#8220;Every individual should stand by the country until the end.&#8221;
This patriotic investment movement has generated 45 billion yuan ($274 million) in net retail inflows since the April 4 market rout, according to Datayes. 
Zhou Lifeng, an investor from China&#8217;s northwestern Ningxia region with holdings worth 3 million yuan ($414,000), expressed the sentiment driving these actions: &#8220;Being patriotic means holding on to your stocks.&#8221;

Why It Matters: The shift comes amid escalating U.S.-China tensions that extend beyond tariffs. Goldman Sachs recently warned of a 66% probability of delisting risk for Chinese ADRs, with an estimated $250 billion in Chinese stocks held by U.S. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/04/44868280/us-listed-chinese-stocks-face-250-billion-forced-selling-risk-as-delisting-fears-emerge-what-investors-need-to-know">institutions potentially affected</a>.
The patriotic buying focuses on sectors aligned with China&#8217;s national agenda, including semiconductors, defense, and consumer stocks. Meanwhile, Chinese e-commerce giants like JD.com Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JD#NASDAQ">JD</a>) and Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABA#NASDAQ">BABA</a>) have announced measures to help exporters pivot to domestic markets.
This retail investor support comes as Chinese Premier Li Qiang has urged government officials to strengthen efforts to stabilize the stock market, and as state-backed institutional investors publicly pledged to increase share purchases.
As tit-for-tat tariffs between the two economic powers surge past 100%, some investors see the market as another battlefield. Hedge fund manager Yang Tingwu, who redirected his portfolio into stocks after the tensions escalated, put it bluntly: &#8220;This is war, only without gun smoke.&#8221;

Chinese Retail Investors 'Hodl' Stocks In Patriotic Response To US Trade War

<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/china" rel="noreferrer noopener">Chinese e-commerce giant</a> JD.com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JD#NASDAQ">JD</a>) has alleged rival platforms of forcibly persuading couriers to ditch JD Takeaway service, Reuters reported, citing the company&#8217;s social media post on Monday.
Benzinga reached out to the company for comments.
JD Takeaway began&nbsp;onboarding restaurants&nbsp;in February, ensuring &#8220;zero commissions.&#8221;

According to the Reuters report, Meituan (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MPNGF#OTC">MPNGF</a>) (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MPNGY#OTC">MPNGY</a>) dominated China&#8217;s food delivery sector, with Alibaba Group Holding (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABA#NYSE">BABA</a>)-owned&nbsp;Ele.me the second-largest player in the country.
JD.com has promised to provide sufficient orders to couriers banned by other platforms. It aims to increase full-time riders to 100,000 from 50,000 in the next quarter.
JD.com has been expanding in the delivery and logistics space not just organically, but by making major investments in the last five years.
It had invested more than $800 million in Dada Nexus, the operator of the rapid delivery service <a href="https://www.scmp.com/tech/big-tech/article/3126646/jdcom-invests-us800-million-last-mile-delivery-service-fill-gap-its" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">JD Daojia</a> in 2020.
Last year, it paid around $892 million to acquire the full stake in Kuayue-Express, which it did not already own.
Recently, President Donald Trump <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44646719/pdd-stock-drops-as-trumps-new-tariffs-threaten-chinese-e-commerce-giants" rel="noreferrer noopener">announced sweeping tariffs</a> on&nbsp;imports from China, raising the total duties on Chinese goods to as high as 245% in some cases, prompting criticism from Beijing.
Goldman analyst Andrew Tilton expects the Chinese government to retaliate with some targeted tariffs on US products as well as non-tariff measures like export controls.
It is worth noting that billionaire investor David Tepper&#8217;s&nbsp;Appaloosa Management increased its stakes in prominent&nbsp;Chinese e-commerce names during the fourth quarter of 2024.
On the other hand, American investor Carson Block, the founder of&nbsp;Muddy Waters Research, had snubbed China&#8217;s&nbsp;stock market rally, citing unreliability in corporate accounting and geopolitical risks.
Price Action: JD stock is down 3.30% at $33.60 at the last check on Monday.

JD.com Accuses Rivals Of Sabotaging Its Takeaway Service, Plans Major Expansion

Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABA#NYSE">BABA</a>) co-founder Jack Ma once expressed that trade wars, such as the one brewing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/44831287/trump-administration-imposes-up-to-245-tariff-on-chinese-imports-amid-intensifying-trade-battle">between the U.S. and China,</a> are obscuring deeper issues of resource allocation and wealth concentration, while posing a risk to global stability.
What Happened: In an old interview, Jack Ma acknowledged that in the past 30 years, top U.S. companies like IBM (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IBM#NASDAQ">IBM</a>), Cisco (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CSCO#NASDAQ">CSCO</a>) and Microsoft (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) earned a lot of profit which are much more than the four largest banks in China put together, however, after the financial crisis of 2008, the country lost trillions of money and lots of white and blue collar jobs. The Chinese billionaire asks, &#8220;Where (did) the money go?&#8221;
He suggests that the narrative of other countries &#8220;stealing&#8221; American jobs oversimplifies a more complex&nbsp;issue: strategic missteps in resource&nbsp;allocation. Ma feels that wealth has been disproportionately distributed, favoring&nbsp;short-term gains over long-term stability.&nbsp;The conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan have depleted&nbsp;resources that could have been&nbsp;used to support America&#8217;s industrial base and its people.

The Alibaba co-founder went on to say that the trade war between the world&#8217;s two largest economies, the U.S. and China, could have catastrophic consequences not only for these nations but also for the global economy. &#8220;It&#8217;s going to be a disaster,&#8221; said the Alibaba co-founder. He believes, &#8220;When trade stops, the war starts.&#8221;
He opined that the potential for collaboration over confrontation, even if it disrupts established business models, could yield long-term benefits of peace and mutual prosperity that would far outweigh the costs.
&#8220;I will (be) happy if China and USA agree on something&#8230;I would destroy Alibaba model by stopping the war,&#8221; stated Ma.
The Chinese tech titan also stated that it is hard to imagine that the first largest economy of the world and the second largest economy have a trade war. &#8220;If we can anybody can do something to stop it do anything to stop,&#8221; Jack Ma stated.

This Is What Whales Are Betting On JD.com

If you hold U.S.-listed Chinese stocks like Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABA#NASDAQ">BABA</a>), JD.com Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JD#NASDAQ">JD</a>) or PDD Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PDD#NASDAQ">PDD</a>), you may soon face serious liquidity risks, as delisting threats tied to geopolitical and regulatory frictions between Washington and Beijing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/tariffs">mount with fresh urgency.</a>
In a note shared Thursday, Goldman Sachs analyst Kinger Lau, CFA, said delisting fears for Chinese American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) are rising again, driven by escalating trade tensions and new policy guidance from U.S. officials, including President Donald Trump&#8216;s America First Investment Policy and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent's statement that "everything is on the table" in the response to China's retaliatory tariffs.
According to Goldman Sachs&#8217; ADR Delisting Barometer, there is currently a 66% probability of delisting risk embedded in Chinese ADRs. A full pricing in of delisting risk could lead to a 9% drop in ADR valuations from current levels. 
&#8220;U.S. listings by Chinese companies is widely regarded as an embodiment of financial market relations and a leverage for the potential negotiation between the two nations,&#8221; Lau wrote.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">How High Are The Stakes?</h1>
&#8220;We estimate that U.S. institutional investors currently own around U.S.$830 billion of Chinese stocks across A shares, H shares and ADRs,&#8221; Goldman Sachs stated. Of this, approximately $250 billion is tied up in ADRs specifically.
At the same time, Chinese investors could be forced to offload up to $1.7 trillion in U.S. financial assets, including approximately $370 billion in equities and $1.3 trillion in bonds.
This extreme scenario — which alludes to a full investment ban — would represent the largest forced unwind of cross-border holdings in modern financial history.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Who Gets Hit The Hardest?</h1>
According to Goldman's analysis, 5% of Alibaba's and 3% of PDD's market cap is owned by U.S. institutions that currently don't own other Hong Kong-listed stocks such as Tencent or Meituan. That means they may not have operational flexibility to pivot to Hong Kong in the event of delisting.
Roughly 20% of U.S. institutional holdings in top ADRs — equivalent to 7% of the total market cap — may face similar constraints, meaning they may be forced sellers.
For Alibaba, there are 1,275 institutional holders globally, and institutional investors collectively own 50% of the company&#8217;s outstanding shares. Out of that, 26% of Alibaba's total shares are held by U.S.-based institutions, with 176 U.S. institutional investors holding positions larger than 0.005% of the company's total shares.
For PDD, the figures are more concentrated: it has 1,006 institutional holders, with institutions holding 31% of the stock overall. 16% of the total shares are held by U.S. institutional investors, and there are 107 U.S.-based institutional holders with significant stakes (above 0.005% ownership).
In short, the data suggests Alibaba has both broader and deeper institutional engagement, especially from U.S. investors, compared to PDD. This means that, in the event of a U.S. delisting, Alibaba could see a greater volume of forced selling from U.S. institutional investors due to the larger size and scale of U.S. holdings.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Are ETFs And Derivatives at Risk?</h1>
Yes. Passive funds and ETF products are particularly exposed. The KraneShares CSI China Internet ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KWEB#NYSE">KWEB</a>) has 33% of its assets in ADRs, half of which do not have Hong Kong listings, making it vulnerable in a forced delisting scenario.
Other funds, like the iShares MSCI China ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MCHI#NYSE">MCHI</a>), have already shifted weightings from ADRs to Hong Kong shares, thanks to changes in primary ticker designations by index providers like MSCI.
In derivatives markets, any forced delisting of ADRs could trigger early termination events under ISDA contracts, potentially unwinding outstanding options and swaps linked to these securities.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">What Happens In A Delisting Event?</h1>
If a delisting takes place, investors may have a few paths forward depending on how the company is structured. For firms with dual listings, investors can convert their ADRs into Hong Kong-listed shares through the depositary bank. 
This process typically takes about two business days and may involve fees and applicable taxes. In some cases, investors might be able to sell their shares on over-the-counter (OTC) markets, although this route is blocked for companies delisted under the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act (HFCAA) or sanctioned by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC). 
If no action is taken by the investor, the ADR program will eventually be terminated and the depositary will sell the underlying shares, distributing the net proceeds in cash after deducting fees.

10 Consumer Discretionary Stocks Whale Activity In Today's Session

JFIN

Shares of US-listed Chinese companies are trading lower following a report suggesting that US Treasury Secretary Bessent wants to pressure trading partners to limit China's involvement in their respective economies. Hongkong Post plans to suspend postal services for parcels containing goods to the US.

Hongkong Post announced on Wednesday that it would suspend its postal services for parcels containing goods to the United States, citing what it described as the U.S. government&#8217;s &#8220;bullying&#8221; and &#8220;unreasonable&#8221; actions regarding new tariffs<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/04/44830828/us-is-unreasonable-bullying-and-imposing-tariffs-abusively-says-hong-kong-post-operator"> and postal fees.</a>
The Details: Effective immediately, Hongkong Post has stopped accepting parcels containing goods for delivery to the U.S. by land and sea. Acceptance of airmail parcels will also stop on April 27.&nbsp;

The move is a direct response to the Trump administration's decision<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/retail-sales/25/04/44714336/temu-shein-brace-for-impact-as-trumps-tariff-torpedo-blows-up-the-800-loophole"> to eliminate</a> the duty-free de minimis exemption for shipments from Hong Kong and to impose steep new tariffs and per-item postal fees on goods entering the U.S.
"The US is unreasonable, bullying and imposing tariffs abusively. Hongkong Post will definitely not collect any so-called tariffs on behalf of the US and will suspend the acceptance of postal items containing goods destined to the US," the government of Hong Kong said in <a href="https://www.info.gov.hk/gia/general/202504/16/P2025041500835.htm">a statement</a>.&nbsp;
The suspension comes amid escalating trade tensions between the U.S. and China. President Donald Trump recently closed the de minimis loophole, which previously allowed small parcels under $800 to enter the U.S. tax-free.&nbsp;
The new tariffs and fees are part of a broader crackdown on imports from China and Hong Kong after the U.S. accused retailers like Shein and Temu of exploiting the exemption to avoid taxes and customs checks while undercutting American companies.&nbsp;
Stocks To Watch: Shares of Temu&#8217;s parent company, PDD Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PDD#NASDAQ">PDD</a>), are trading lower on Wednesday. Other Chinese e-commerce giants like Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABA#NYSE">BABA</a>) and JD.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JD#NASDAQ">JD</a>) were also down by more than 3% at the time of publication.

10 Consumer Discretionary Stocks With Whale Alerts In Today's Session

JD.com's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JD#NYSE">JD</a>) short percent of float has fallen 18.98% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 22.64 million shares sold short, which is 1.75% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 2.21 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<h3>Comparing JD.com's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, JD.com's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 10.21%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

Top 10 Trending Stocks On WallStreetBets As Of April 15, 2025 (Via Swaggy Stocks)

Nio Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NIO#NYSE">NIO</a>) shares traded higher on Monday after President Donald Trump and his administration announced that electronics are exempt from the 145% reciprocal tariffs <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/04/44787080/goldman-sachs-cheers-china-tariff-exemptions-lifts-earnings-forecasts-for-apple-dell-hp">on Chinese goods.</a>
The Details: According to the <a href="https://nypost.com/2025/04/14/business/tech-stocks-jump-after-trump-pauses-tariffs-on-electronics/?utm_source=chatgpt.com">New York Post</a>, the announcement exempts electronics like smartphones, laptops and semiconductors. Following the news, Nio, along with other U.S.-listed Chinese stocks, rose as the exemption helped alleviate investor concerns about rising costs and weakened demand.
Other U.S.-listed Chinese tech stocks that moved higher include PDD Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PDD#NASDAQ">PDD</a>), JD.Com Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JD#NASDAQ">JD</a>) and Baidu Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BIDU#NASDAQ">BIDU</a>).
While Nio is primarily an electric vehicle manufacturer, it recently expanded into consumer electronics with the launch of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/06/39377149/teslas-chinese-rival-nio-unveils-plans-for-nio-in-2024-anticipates-launch-of-second-generation-n">its own smartphone</a>, which may benefit more directly from the exemption, as smartphones are specifically excluded from the tariffs.
American technology companies such as Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) and Dell Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DELL#NYSE">DELL</a>) also saw a boost, as both rely heavily on components and manufacturing ties to China that could have been impacted by the tariffs.
The tariff relief may be temporary. Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick said new measures targeting semiconductors and other tech components are expected in the coming months.
Trump also emphasized in a Truth Social<a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/114332337028519855"> post</a> that, "NOBODY is getting ‘off the hook' on tariffs," adding that even if certain products are exempt under one policy, "they'll be covered under another.&#8221;
NIO Price Action: NIO stock closed 2.56% higher at $3.61, according to data from <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro.</a>
