Why Alibaba, Nio And Pinduoduo Shares Are Rising Today

Shares of several Chinese stocks, including Alibaba Group Holding Ltd BABANio Inc NIO and Pinduoduo Inc PDD, are trading higher Friday morning following reports indicating Chinese authorities are preparing to give U.S. regulators full access to auditing reports of most of the companies listed on American exchanges.

According to a Bloomberg report, citing people familiar with the matter, Chinese regulators are in the process of putting a framework together that will allow a majority of Chinese companies to maintain their listings on U.S. exchanges. However, China is reportedly prepared to accept the delisting of some state-owned or private companies that hold government data or other sensitive information. 

Alibaba operates China's online marketplaces, including Taobao (consumer-to-consumer) and Tmall (business-to-consumer). Nio operates in China's premium electric vehicle market and Pinduoduo operates an agriculture technology platform in China.
