Equity Bottom-Up

<ul>
<li>PDD's spectacular 3Q results will prove unsustainable based on our assessments of its core markets and deep-dive benchmark analysis of growth trajectory of PDD and Alibaba, using GMV as scale.</li>
<li>We see earnings risk going into 2023 due to well-penetrated wallet share of core user base, deflating growth drivers and ramp-up of investments.</li>
<li>In the long term, inevitable multiple compression also renders the risk-return payoff of this US$100bn company mediocre, even under blue-sky growth forecasts. Prefer Alibaba over PDD.</li>
