Why Alibaba Stock Dropped Today


Shares of China's Alibaba Group Holding (NYSE: BABA) stock tumbled on Tuesday, down 2.8% as of 1:45 p.m. ET after Reuters reported that the U.S. government is investigating its cloud business "to determine whether it poses a risk to U.S. national security."  

The Biden administration's investigation centers on worries that the Chinese government might gain access to personal information of U.S. customers of the Chinese e-commerce giant, the news agency reports.
