阿里巴巴的財報顯示,中國消費不斷飆升
The Chinese consumer is still spending, despite concerns about a trade war-induced economic slowdown. Online retail giant Alibaba reported a more than 40% jump in sales in its latest quarter, results that were better than analysts expected.
盡管人們擔心貿(mào)易戰(zhàn)會導致經(jīng)濟放緩,但中國消費者仍在消費。在線零售巨頭阿里巴巴最近一個季度的銷售額增長超過40%,這一結(jié)果好于分析師的預期。
The good news from Alibaba (BABA) comes on the same day that American retail giant Walmart(WMT), which owns a stake in Alibaba rival JD.com, also reported impressive results. JD (JD)posted solid sales growth earlier this week as well.
就在阿里巴巴發(fā)布這一好消息的同一天,美國零售巨頭沃爾瑪(Walmart)也公布了令人印象深刻的業(yè)績。沃爾瑪持有阿里巴巴競爭對手京東(JD.com)的股份。本周早些時候,京東也公布了強勁的銷售增長。
Alibaba reported a healthy jump in mobile active users in the quarter and solid gains in sales at both its Tmall and Taobao platforms.
阿里巴巴報告稱,該季度移動活躍用戶健康增長,旗下天貓和淘寶平臺的銷售額均有穩(wěn)步增長。
"We are pleased to see sustained user engagement and consumer spending," said Alibaba chief financial officer Maggie Wu in a statement.
阿里巴巴首席財務官吳季剛在一份聲明中表示:“我們很高興看到持續(xù)的用戶參與和消費者支出。”
What's more, sales in Alibaba's cloud computing unit, which competes with Amazon (AMZN) and Microsoft(MSFT), soared 66% from a year ago.
此外,與亞馬遜(Amazon)和微軟(Microsoft)競爭的阿里巴巴云計算部門的銷售額同比飆升66%。
Alibaba's cloud division helps companies around the world host their own sites and CEO Daniel Zhang promised more growth ahead.
阿里巴巴的云計算部門幫助世界各地的公司建立自己的網(wǎng)站,首席執(zhí)行官張勇承諾未來會有更多的增長。
"With strong cash flow from our core commerce business, we will continue to invest in technology and bring digital transformation to millions of businesses globally," he said in the statement.
他在聲明中表示:“由于我們的核心商業(yè)業(yè)務擁有強大的現(xiàn)金流,我們將繼續(xù)投資于技術(shù),為全球數(shù)百萬企業(yè)帶來數(shù)字化轉(zhuǎn)型。”
Alibaba shares rose about 3% in early trading following the earnings announcement. JD soared earlier this week after it reported results. Both stocks fell Wednesday though, along with the broader market, as fears of a looming US recession grew.
財報公布后,阿里巴巴股價在早盤上漲約3%。本周早些時候,京東公布業(yè)績后股價飆升。不過,由于對美國經(jīng)濟衰退的擔憂加劇,這兩只股票周三雙雙下跌,與大盤一起下跌。
