Is alibaba a good stock to buy​?

On September 17, 2025, Carter Worth appeared on CNBC’s Fast Money to share his latest analysis on Alibaba (BABA).

Known as the “Chart Master,” Worth explained why the stock’s recent setup suggests it may be prudent for investors to trim long positions rather than continue adding exposure.

Worth pointed to weakening momentum indicators, declining relative strength, and price action that has failed to sustain previous rallies. The charts, he noted, are showing signs of distribution rather than accumulation—an early warning that upside may be limited in the near term. While Alibaba remains a major player in e-commerce and cloud technology, Worth emphasized that investor positioning should be guided by probabilities, not narratives, and right now the charts point toward caution.

This shift in tone underscores an important principle in technical analysis: knowing when to scale back exposure, even in companies with strong long-term prospects. Identifying these moments can help investors manage risk and preserve gains while avoiding deeper drawdowns.
