PDD Holdings Inc. (PDD): Jim Cramer Shares "Death Rattle" For Firm

5. ZTO Express (Cayman) Inc. (NYSE:ZTO)

On May 20, 2026, Morgan Stanley raised the firm’s price target on ZTO Express (Cayman) Inc. (NYSE:ZTO) to $30.10 from $28.50 and maintained an Overweight rating on the shares. Morgan Stanley said it was raising forecasts for the third time in six months following the company’s Q1 results, citing market share gains and better unit profitability as factors that could support ZTO’s re-rating despite slower industry volume growth and rising fuel costs.

Meanwhile, BofA lowered the firm’s price target on ZTO Express (ZTO) to $25.60 from $27 and maintained a Neutral rating on the shares. BofA said the lower target multiple reflects a “new overhang” tied to a potential stake sale by Alibaba (BABA) following the termination of the 2018 investor agreement among ZTO, its founders, and Alibaba. The firm said ZTO has not yet provided guidance on how the potential stake disposal will be carried out, while noting that an “undemanding valuation” and expected share buybacks may support the shares.
