The online version of the Wall Street Journal published an analysis article stating that Sina and Yahoo can be described as brothers and brothers. Both companies were the pioneers of the Internet industry. They were very popular, but they were drowned by social media.Like Yahoo, Sina also holds an important asset -a majority of Weibo on Weibo.As the second largest shareholder of Weibo, if Sina sells Weibo shares, Ali will naturally take over.Sina may embark on the same way as Yahoo, as a whole or partially selling the company.

Considering Sina's current low stock price and Ali's ambitions in the media field, Ali may give up the increase in Weibo and directly acquire Sina.

The following is the full text of the article:

Sina has the same problem as Yahoo.

Like Yahoo, Sina was once the pioneer of the Internet industry, but as social media gradually emerged and the limelight covered the portal, Sina fell rapidly in recent years.Sina last year's portal revenue decreased by 15%from two years ago.In the past 10 years, Sina's stock price has risen only 77%.In contrast, Baidu's stock price rose 32 times at the same time, and the net return of Tencent's stock price reached 54 times.

But just like Yahoo, which was once inaccessible, Sina also owns an important asset: holding a majority of Weibo companies.

As of December last year, Weibo has 236 million monthly active users.British physicist Stephen Hawking became the latest celebrity who opened Weibo.Weibo's revenue last year was more than 7 times in 2012.Unlike Twitter, Weibo has been profitable.

Alibaba Group has 31%of Weibo shares.If Sina sells Weibo shares, Ali will naturally become a buyer, and the e -commerce giant has the right to priority.In addition to being the second largest shareholder of Weibo, Ali also contributed a majority of revenue to Weibo. The company placed advertisements from its online merchants on Weibo.

Ali's plan to obtain a loan of US $ 4 billion in lesions has caused rumors that the company is about to quote Weibo, which has promoted the accumulated increase of Weibo stock prices since February.However, Sina's stock price rose only by 27%at the same time.This means that 56%of the Weibo shares held by Sina now occupy about three -quarters of the company's market value.Ryan Roberts, an analyst of Hong Kong Investment Bank MCM PARTNERS, said that assuming Sina's portal business is worthless, calculating the net cash amount and other Internet assets owned by the company, Sina's current stock price is estimated to be dividedThe stock price under the value method is discounted by nearly 30%.

This has an interesting possibility: Ali no longer increases its holdings of Weibo shares, but is cheaply acquired Sina.Ali has recently implemented several transactions in the media field, including the acquisition of Hong Kong's "South China Morning Post", Video Website Youku Tudou, and the First Financial Stock.Sina's assets include popular news and financial websites, which may be in line with Ali's ambitions in the media.

Sina may choose to self -redeem in the same way as Yahoo -sell the main assets or sell the company as a whole.
