The people with the most riding on T-Head's Hong Kong spin-off are $BABA holders, and I think they get a better deal from this than whoever buys the new shares.
- Alibaba said on November 10 that T-Head confidentially filed its Hong Kong listing application on September 11, and the exchange has cleared the proposed spin-off to proceed.
- Offering size and structure are still undecided, and more approvals are needed. This is a cleared path, with no public prospectus or listing date yet.
- BABA closed November 9 at $105.36, down 3.74%, and was at $104.90 in pre-market on November 10, another 0.44% lower.
- Alibaba reports September-quarter results on November 19, before the US open. That call is where I'd want to hear how T-Head's numbers are carved out.
My usual IPO rule applies: I'd rather watch a new listing trade for a while than chase day one, and T-Head is no exception. For Alibaba holders, putting a market price on the chip unit is the upside, and a dip into earnings on a solid company is the kind of setup I'd look at for cash-secured puts. I could be wrong if the market overall rolls over first.

Xylem ($XYL): buy in pieces $88 to $100, long term
$XYL: I think Xylem is a buy. The guidance cut came from project timing and orders are still growing. 14% below its 200-day 12.9x EV/EBITDA vs a 5-yr avg near 23x Backlog up 13% to $5.5B I'm buying in pieces from $88 to $100.
$NVDA deep dive: down 29% in five weeks before earnings. I think it's a buy, add at $164-$168
$NVDA is down 29% from its October high in five weeks. First the midterm selloff took 9% off in one day. Then the board opened an independent review of Jensen Huang and a shareholder class action followed. I think it's a buy here and a better buy in the $164 to $168 zone.
Hot October CPI Pushes Long Yields Higher a Week Before NVDA Earnings
Hotter October inflation drove long-term Treasury yields higher, adding pressure on equities ahead of Nvidia earnings.
October CPI came in hotter than expected this morning: headline prices rose 0.4% month-over-month and core rose 0.3%, both above forecasts. BLS did not publish a year-over-year comparison because October 2025 data are unavailable, so the monthly prints carry the signal. The surprise lands against firm activity data: unemployment held at 4.1% in October, and the advance…
