Shares of Alibaba Group Holding Ltd ADR declined on Monday and the Chinese technology giant's Hong Kong-listed shares continued to fall on Tuesday triggered by President Donald Trump's remarks to limit Chinese spending and investment.

What Happened: Jack Ma’s BABA which has gained 51.90% on a year-to-date basis and its HK counterpart 9988 which was up 60.39% during the same period fell after Trump's memo directed the Committee on Foreign Investment to take action.

The committee is a secretive panel that reviews foreign investments in companies or property for potential national security risks.

As reported by Bloomberg, the panel was asked by the President to curb Chinese spending on technology and other strategic U.S. sectors. Furthermore, to counter China’s dominance in shipbuilding, the U.S. proposed fees for the use of Chinese-made commercial ships.

However, BABA sank 10.23% to $129.04 apiece on Monday and 9988 was trading 4.05% lower as of the publication of this article.

Momentum indicators were also strong. The relative strength index fell below the overbought to neutral zone at 66.86 while it still had a positive MACD of 11.65, indicating the possibility of a further positive move.
