I like both as both recently reported earnings that beat expectations. Of course, popmart exceeded more. In the short term over less than 1 year, I would favour popmart as the craze over the dolls like labubu continues. However, there is no telling when this craze would die down and they cannot expand as fast as expected. On the other hand, mixue’s price point reaches out to the masses and now has even more outlets than Starbucks. There is still capacity for it to even have more outlets that would contribute to its revenue. The main issue would be the rise of competitors in the future. If I were to choose one that I would hold for more than a year, I feel that mixue would be less risky as indulging in tea and sweet treats is more likely to happen than the masses getting the dolls and blind boxes. It should also be able to differentiate itself from competitors that reach out to population with different buying power.
Pop Mart PT Upgrades to HK$300: Too Late to Chase the Rally?
Labubu is now becoming a household name, and new IPs like Crybaby, Skullpanda, and Hirono are quickly catching up. Some in the investment community argue that when everyone starts chasing the trend, it's time to exit—there may not be much upside left. Morgan Stanley released a report that upgrades Pop Mart's PT to HKD 303. Do you think Pop Mart's bubble is about to burst? Or do you still believe in its IP incubation capabilities?
