Glancy Prongay Wolke & Rotter LLP, a national shareholder rights law firm, is continuing its investigation into possible securities fraud violations by Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. (NYSE: BABA). The firm is urging investors who lost money on Alibaba stock to contact them about potentially pursuing claims to recover their losses.

Why it matters

The investigation into Alibaba comes after reports that the company may have provided the Chinese military with access to customer data and capabilities that threaten U.S. security. This has led to a decline in Alibaba's stock price, causing losses for investors.

The details

According to reports, a White House memo claimed that Alibaba provides the People's Liberation Army with capabilities that threaten U.S. security, and also gives the Chinese government and military access to customer data including IP addresses, WiFi information, and payment records. The Pentagon also briefly added Alibaba to a list of companies aiding the Chinese military before withdrawing the list. Alibaba's stock price has fallen significantly in recent months, including a 7.1% drop on March 19, 2026, after the company reported weaker-than-expected financial results.

  • On November 14, 2024, Financial Times published an article about the White House memo.
  • On February 13, 2026, the Pentagon added Alibaba to a list of companies aiding the Chinese military before withdrawing the list.
  • On March 19, 2026, Alibaba reported weaker-than-expected financial results.
