Alibaba Group Holding Ltd – ADR (NYSE:BABA) shares are trading higher by 4.57% to $84.13 during Tuesday’s trading session. Shares of Chinese companies at large are trading higher amid an overall market rebound as stocks across sectors rise following last week’s selloff.

The intraday drop in U.S. Treasury yields benefits companies such that, when interest rates otherwise rise, the value of future cash flows is reduced for growth stocks, which in turn lower the value of the stock.
Equities fell in September due to concerns over inflation, contractionary Federal Reserve policy and a potential recession. An economic slowdown could negatively impact discretionary spending.
