The big news that sent Chinese ADRs soaring on Tuesday was that Chinese exports rose by 25.6% year over year in the month of August. The report shows that there is a strong demand for Chinese goods overseas, which include electronics and consumer goods. Other ADRs that rose alongside AliBaba include JD.com (NASDAQ:JD), PinDuoDuo (NASDAQ:PDD), and Baidu (NASDAQ:BIDU). All of these stocks have been beaten down over the past few months, but it seems as though Chinese ADRs have finally found a bottom.
