Alibaba (BABA) slashed buybacks 80% year over year while CapEx surged 75%, as CEO Eddie Wu declared AI the company's "most certain growth engine."

Act now: the ******* yst who called NVIDIA in 2010 just named his top 10 AI stocks — and Alibaba didn't make the cut. Grab the names FREE today.
Alibaba (NYSE:BABA) just made its capital allocation priorities unmistakable. In the June 2026 quarter, the company repurchased 13.4 million ordinary shares (approximately 1.7 million ADSs) for US$162 million. A year earlier, in the same fiscal quarter, it bought back 56 million ordinary shares (7 million ADSs) for US$815 million. That is roughly an 80% cut in ADS repurchases at a company that still had US$19.3 billion of authorization remaining as of June 30, 2025.
The cash was rerouted into silicon and concrete.
