In this video we go over the rise and fall of the Chinese technology giant Tencent. At their peak in 2021 their market cap reached within striking distance of $1 trillion. Since then their stock has lost more than 70% of its value and there are questions about the company's long-term prospects given the unpredictable nature of China's regulatory environment.

    Sidenote: They did not buy Epic games. Tencent acquired a 40% stake in Epic for more than $300 million in 2013 in Epic Games. Founder and CEO Tim Sweeney maintains a majority ownership.

    <Useful information! Thank you for sharing this info. Also, You know you could work for 40yrs to have $1M in your retirement, meanwhile some people are putting thousands of dollars in a meme coin and now they are multimillionaires. Things probably will get back to normal trends

    Gaming causes nearsightedness? What garbage. Citation needed.

    "We all hope we never need life insurance" huh? Pretty sure no one here is hoping for immortality or dying alone.

    Dude, they are not wrong though, video games are not the same as opium, they are more addictive, and worse because they are target at kids

  10. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars William YT says:

    If they own LoL, not only will they not have any financial trouble, but comparing it to opium may not be an overstatement lol

  11. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Al Thunder says:

    Tencent typical Chinese copycats.

  12. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Gregorio J. Salazar Bibriesca says:

    F*** em

  13. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Zurin Arctus says:

    The fall is due to politics. Tencent will be likely militarized and nationalized by the Party and PLA soon.

  14. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars deathto allpoliticians says:

    I pay for YouTube premium NOT to watch ads. Why waste my time with sponsor bs?

  15. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars iangaman says:

    League of legends and finance. It cant get better than this

  16. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars E says:

    They are now only worth 10 cent

  17. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars VanessLife Tag Force Special! :* says:

    They saw the future back then. Now, who knows what they can see that we can't.

  18. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars herman leung says:

    the exchange rate is kill the stock price too, coz hkd is linked to usd directly, so it appreciated a lot compare to chinese yuan, which is the primary income of tencent

  19. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Filmstarindamaking says:

    Guys like Jeremy from Financial Education were pumping Chinese stocks hard before The pandemic like Alibaba and a few others. I bought into the hype the quickly realized that I wasn’t actually buying any of those stocks since the CCP doesn’t allow it. I figured since the communists don’t care about my capitalist dollars that cashing out my investments was the best thing to do even while the stocks continued to soar. So glad I got out in time. Many people lost their shirts investing in Chinese stocks following the youtubers that don’t give financial advice but surely lead you astray if you don’t do your own due diligence.

  20. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars SoloAdventures says:

    I do love league of legends

  21. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars onesoloving1 says:

    Amazing reporting. Relevant, concise, moving. Impressive.

  22. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars VendiGlobe says:

    The problem is that we don't know what we buy. Chinese ADRs are shells incorporated in Panama. Books are not open to USA auditors. If we buy NIO( car) on the Hong Kong Stock exchange in the USA ADR can be secured against a wheel. I suspect that Chinese ADRs are financial vehicles created to suck out $ from the USA investors. I got burned on Alibaba and I will never again invest in Chinese ADRs.

  23. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Big Bollocks says:

    Great strategy, jus copy successful shit from overseas. Typical Chinese behavior

  24. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Alim C says:

    You're telling me Tencent is underreported by the Media? Really?

  25. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Samson Soturian says:

    As if Tencent is under-reported…

  26. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Gee Speller says:

    One thing is wrong google pulled out of China now their trying to get back in
    And I love WeChat

  27. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Icetrip says:

    Tencent is treaky things are hard when you have the Communist party on your neck

  28. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Shawn Youngblood says:

    anybody that invests in chinese companies is just insane in my view.

  29. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars oo -- says:

    Rip pubg

  30. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars A Spirit, A God, A Face, A Name says:

    Tencent is too good to fail

  31. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars YouCanHasAccount says:

    Having every citizen on the same social media and payment platform is the surveillance state's wet dream. As such Tencent will not be allowed to fail by the CCP.
