Why iQIYI, Full Truck Alliance, and GDS Holdings Soared This Week

Why iQIYI, Full Truck Alliance, and GDS Holdings Soared This Week

Lots of Chinese tech stocks soared this week, including iQIYI (NASDAQ: IQ), Full Truck Alliance (NYSE: YMM), and GDS Holdings Limited (NASDAQ: GDS), which were up 19.3%, 33.2%, and 30.2%, respectively, at the end of trading on Thursday. Virtually all Chinese tech stocks rose after last-week's widespread protests paradoxically sparked hopes that China would relax its strict COVID-19 lockdown measures in due course. Interestingly, both Full Truck Alliance and GDS Holdings beat both revenue and profit expectations handily, while iQIYI was mixed, delivering a revenue beat but a miss on profit expectations.
