Alibaba Group’s stock surged up to 8.6% following reports about Apple linking up with the e-commerce giant to roll out AI features for iPhone users in China.
For Alibaba, securing a deal with Apple is no less than a breakthrough. Alibaba’s latest AI model Qwen 2.5-Max has reportedly outperformed Llama-3.1-405B and GPT-4o, and in 2025 alone, its stock has gone up by over 30%, reaching a price of $111.90 at press time.
The Information mentioned that Apple’s iPhone users typically spend more money, so if Alibaba can cater to them, it could charge higher fees and potentially grow its cloud revenues faster (11% yearly gains in fiscal 2026).
For months, Apple’s AI strategy for China remained uncertain. As a result of which, Apple lost market share to rivals like Huawei that offered smartphones with AI tools. Last holiday quarter, iPhone sales dipped in China due to its lack of AI features.
According to The Information, Apple has chosen to partner up with Alibaba because the e-commerce giant has a huge amount of user data including shopping and payment habits. Apple could use this data to train its AI models and deliver customized tools.
