Alibaba considers sole HK listing for IPO
Alibaba is prepared to shun US markets and pursue its highly anticipated listing solely in Hong Kong, dealing a blow to global exchanges keen to host what would likely be the biggest initial public offering this year.

China's biggest ecommerce company is expected to list at the earliest in the final quarter of this year and could be valued at $60bn-$70bn. Alibaba said it had not yet appointed banks to run the listing process and has made no final decision on its listing venue.

However, bankers from three different institutions in the US and Asia that were in talks with the company about its plans said a US listing was almost certainly off the table.
