BYD isn’t a VIE. A VIE is when a Chinese company sets up an offshore shell, usually in the Caymans, because foreign investors aren’t allowed to own the real company (think Alibaba or Tencent). In those cases you don’t actually own equity, just contracts. BYD is different, it’s listed directly in Hong Kong and Shenzhen, and the OTC tickers you buy in the US (BYDDF/BYDDY) are either ADRs or direct access to the Hong Kong shares. That means you own real equity with the same rights as any other Hong Kong H-shareholder. The real risk with BYD is geopolitical, trade tensions, tariffs, or possible delisting in the US, not some VIE shell game. The BYD is a VIE claim is just confusion with Chinese tech stocks.
It trades over the counter in the US, under the ticker BYDDY ordinary A-shares, or BYDDF H-shares Hong Kong listing.
Sold at $98 in 2025 here lmao kill me along with AVGO. Bought BYDDY and PFE instead 🤣🤣🤣🤣
yeah its supposed to be 3:1 or 6:1 for ex-China listed stocks (so BYDDY and BYDDF). afaik shanghai listed and HK was alreayd split 7 weeks ago. so yeah overall, a clusterfuck lmao
BYDDY, semis (various), BRK.A (I wish) most of my non-degen port is mutual funds, not going to transcribe them, those are ticker salad
What are your thoughts on BYDDY vs BYD?
BYDDF is ordinary shares. BYDDY is an unsponsored ADR. You cannot use margin for securities that trade OTC. ADRs are created by banks that hold the shares. It lets US investors invest in foreign stocks. You pay fees to the bank for buying the ADR. The ADR is unsponsored, which means that it was created without any company involvement or consent. These trade OTC, which means that there is less liquidity and may have a large bid-ask spread. The $101.99 is the current lowest price that someone is willing to sell their shares at.
HK market: BY6 U.S.: BYDDY
Pardon the silly question, I am pretty good at my stock/ETFs investing, but rusty on options. I have the following stocks/ETFs in my portfolio: - ONEQ - QBTS - RGTI - TSM - MSFT - PLTR - BYDDY - ASML - AMD - CRWD - others.... These are all long term positions, I don't intent to sell any time soon, I am actually continuing to buy regularly. QUESTION: I can easily sell out-of-the money calls on these, collect the premium if they expire worthless, and my only *"risk"* is that there's a BIG surge in price and the calls are exercised, in which case I must sell the shares and the strike priceand lose on the increase in price above the strike price. I just need to select the strike price and option maturity date. Did I get this right?
UBER + BYDDY + LCID is the bargain and less fascist version of TSLA, and much better positioned globally
I like BABA, BIDU, and BYDDY at these valuations—PE ratios are 15, 8, and 22, respectively, which I think discounts more than enough for the country risk.
On an EU broker you can easily find the company by putting its name in, we don't have stock tickers. For US investors BYDDY should work.
Don’t know why you’re being downvoted. That is correct. BYDDY is the company OP meant to refer to
I have been accumulating BYDDY for a while now with monthly buys.
BYDDY's growth is impressive, but watch for regulatory risks impacting future sales in the U.S.
For anyone interested BYD (BYDDY) looks like it might have found a bottom and be reversing up. It was a huge winner this year but had a really bearish month on price cuts that will help it consolidate share and defeat competitors in the long run.
By "Investing" I take it that you mean becoming rich in the stock market. That presupposes that one has "seed money" to make an initial investment, and that "seed money" must come from some source(s): savings from wages, equity from some asset (such as a home). So, the underlying question(s) might more clearly be: How much net worth did you have - and from what sources - when you made your first investment in stocks (or in ETFs or equity based mutual funds), and from that starting point how much have you made entirely from investing in the stock market. The other concept that deserves clarification is how do you define being "RICH." That is obviously, pretty subjective, but I'm my own case, it would be having a net worth of $10m - being a decamillionaire. When my wife and I - both school teachers making a combined total income of about $30-35k - got married 50 years ago we had virtually no money saved. Almost from the start, however, we began "paying ourselves" by setting up and contributing to Tax Sheltered Annuities (TSAs). In our first year 1976-77 we contributed a combined total of $1,[968.It](http://968.It) took us ten years to accumulate $100k in our combined accounts. By the time we retired in 1999, after 30 years of teaching we had contributed $300k, and our accounts had earned an additional $500k for a grand total of $800k. For us that was a form of "investing," but I suppose one might instead consider that our "Seed Money." After we retired we transferred the $800k into IRAs, and from that time forward, our investments were entirely in one form or another in stock equities - originally in mutual funds, but, as soon as we could, we moved into stock market portfolios exclusively. In late 2011 we consolidated various equity accounts into a single brokerage with a total of just over $1m, and adding in our home's equity, our net worth was a bit more than $1.5m. In the time (13.5 years) since the money we have made entirely in stocks has added another $8m to our net worth. That plus our home's current value gives us a total of a little over $10m. So more than 80% of our net worth is from investing in stocks. In the last 7 or 8 years we have refined and simplified our investment strategy to investing in "DOMINANT PLAYERS IN EXPANDING NICHES" For the first few years our 2 largest holdings were Tesla and Apple, but in the past couple of years they have failed to meet both standards and we took our profits and invested in other companies that did meet both criteria. Today we hold just 7 stocks (in order of current market value in our portfolio): NFLX, NVDA, BYDDY, COST, META AMZN, GOOG/L.
I hold BYDDY, it pays dividends.
I was on vacation in Europe last year, and saw the BYD cars, and and showrooms. I came back and started a small position in $BYDDY
BYDDY. In just one year, the amount of BYD cars on the roads in major cities here in Brazil is incredible. The basic models like the Dolphin are accessible to many middle class people here.
This is going to be interesting. I owned BYDDY and BYDDF. I got my bonus shares tacked in my BYDDF Etrade account and the price is adjusted. I see in my Robinhood account which only offers the OTC BYDDY a pending cash dividend amount for August 13th buuuuut the price has not been adjusted. Does that mean anyone who holds BYDDY is not getting the extra shares only the cash dividend? And if they are as a few websites say they are (6-1 split) then does that mean that anyone who buys it between the Ex-dividend date and the date the shares are credited is going to get absolutely slaughtered on their investment? This ADR seems complicated and is also unsponsored. I sold all my BYDDY after the Ex date until this gets sorted out at the end of July. Figured I can always buy it back after the new shares are credited. Here is what AI says...... **BYD Company Limited has two different tickers in the U.S. market:** * **BYDDF (Class H):** This stock had a 3:1 split on June 10, 2025. * **BYDDY (ADR):** This stock will have a future 6:1 split on July 29, 2025.
My ROTH is 75% foreign ETFS. Got BBEU, EUAD HDEF IPAC and this isn’t an ETF but a great investment BYDDY.
BY6 are real shares that pay Dividends, BYDDY is only an ADR which could be pulled of the market without any compensation in the worst case
If you buy BYDDY and USD gains value then you gain.

Lithium is abundant and oversupplied currently. You're better off picking EV manufacturers that you think will win. BYDDY
10.24am US EST & it's up 2.08% ( BYDDY on Robinhood)....I'm very happy 😊
Nkt really sure, I think it's fees from ADR but also BYDDF trades with conversion rates of HK:USD, that might also be causing a difference? Could also be that BYDDY tracks on 2:1 BYD shares.
I have both BYDDY and BYDDF. Noticed every day the BYDDF gets a little more percentage wise. Example - today my BYDDY was up 5.44% on Robinhood. My BYDDF (symbol on the HK exchange) on Etrade was up 6.1%. The ADR managers skim a little off the top?
I tried to buy this in my Fidelity account (BYDDF) and they required 500 shares minimum. I bought 50 from Etrade. So you can buy directly from the HK exchange. Just have to find the right investment company.Robinhood only offers BYDDY as an unsponsored ADR.
As long as you are the recorded holder on the X dividend date (which is tomorrow) you will get the shares and the cash dividend. My etrade account adjusted the price today. My Robinhood account (BYDDY) still has a price of $106.64 while my etrade (BYDDF) which is straight off the Hong Kong stock exchange says it $17.85. But remember BYDDY represents DOUBLE what the share price is on the HK exchange. Never seen an ADR work like this. Maybe because its unsponsored? I am afraid to open my Robinhood account tomorrow!! It will probably say its gone from $106 to $36..........
How come the $ version does so much better Than the € version. BYDDY up 5.6% where’s BY6 barely up today excluding the stock split
I can’t predict that, but I bought BYDDY and PDD because they seem like buy and hold companies for the next decade. And I bought LEAPS on MCHI because I think China will rebound aggressively in the next 2 years or so.
There is been a stock split for the ticket. BYDDF if you currently own 100 BYDDF by the end of July, you’ll own 300 BYDDF but the company hasn’t issued these shares yet so you haven’t really lost 65%It’s just the data is lagging the reality note that BYDDY stock ticker covers the same company BYD and it is accurately showing the value of the stock.
BYDDY splits end of June 6:1 (because it tracks BYD 2:1)
Possibly, BYDDY is up 4.3%, also the main BYD stock is up
BYDDY isn’t showing the split?
Question from US -- BYDDF or BYDDY? Or is there a better one?
That would be pretty funny, time for BYDDY to moon? 👀
Great. My BYDDY is going up.
I like BYDDY - may hold for few years. I bought it a bit too late though.
time to shift into RIVN LCID BYDDY and NIO boys
desperately need an anti-Elon ETF - BYDDY, NIO, PLUG, RIVN, LCID, PSNY, XPEV, BLNK, ASTS, RKLB, etc.
BYDDY (EV future) UBER (autonomous upside) GOOG (overpunished, AI and waymo upside even if search is beat) Meta (massive ads moat because of users and adtech stack) NFLX (room to bundle more value and go upto cable pricing, consumers unlikely to cancel, ads tier as - large backup) SPOT (similar story to Netflix) INDA (emerging market bet; expense ratio is not great but very few India etfs in the US) All that said, 80%+ of my investments are in s&p 500.
BYDDY or other Chinese electric vehicle related company
horny for pre-market on NOG and BYDDY
I've been trying to invest in BYD but its a chinese stock I've been buying BYDDY which is an "ADR".... any risks with this specifically? My understanding is that it's like a mirror / copy of ADR stock but not the real thing. Can it become untethered and lose value against the real BYD? Why do sites only allow "limit" buy orders and not "market" orders?
GOOG because even without Veo 3 they are undervalued and VEO 3 is the biggest thing to happen in AI for a long time. It will replace soooooo many things in Hollywood and even make more budget movies actually good. BEAMMW because their tech is revolutionary and might be seen in every single smartphone, drone, speaker, etc in the future. Consists of ex Ericsson and ex SAAB workers. BYDDY because they are crushing their competition basically everywhere they sell. Better tech than TSLA, better build quality than TSLA, cheaper than TSLA, no vaporware, just good quality EV’s. They recently tanked on the news of them lowering the price of some of their models. This is not because they can’t sell them, in fact they are crushing earnings HARD every quarter. They lowered the price to basically make any other EV obsolete. TSLA had some models that were cheaper, now they don’t. BYD has the cheapest and the most expensive, ranging from budget to luxury all within the same brand. Extremely undervalued IMO. NVTS because of their unique make of semis and newly landed contract to build semis for NVIDIAS servers. I can see them going from $5 to $15 this year in a normal market. XPENG because basically the same as BYD. It’s more on the budget side but has a lot of cool features and a lot of hype from the community. They have tripled their sales and are crushing earnings. Basically BYD for geeks.
BYDDY - European market has highest EV adoption rates by % of car sales and BYD is currently buying up manufacturing sold off by European OEMs who are suffering. Not sure how much Teslas brand has been tarnished there vs here but I don’t think it’ll matter. HSAI - biggest LIDAR player in Asia COST Recession resistant. Never not seen it crowded. Awesome business model. SHOP One of the best bets on I cone inequality I think one can make. If merchandise is not your core product but it’s something a company does on the side, which is tons of businesses large and small, SHOP is the go to. CAVA - large CAPEX spending over the last few years due to the Zoe’s kitchen acquisition has pushed down a lot of key metrics which you are now seeing recover rapidly (ROIC, EBITDA). I see no reason why this growth would be a one time thing as they’re still expanding. I also see a trend toward healthier options in general.
is BYDDY a buy? market cap isnt micro p/e is good and it beat tesla in car sales in europe
BYDDY as in Diddy BYDDY also doesn't sell options on HOOD
BYDDY might as well sell lube
I keep adding BYD (BYDDY) on this dip. It's been my best stock this year. A clear plan to capture share in the 95% of the world that isn't the USA sounds good to me.
I'm facing the same choice. My plan is to invest in some of the non "real" options until I have 25k then liquidate and buy the real thing (1211). I'm torn between 002594 or BYDDY tho. The convenience of BYDDY probably takes the cake for me. 002594 requires me buying HKD, converting to CNH, then buying on Shenzhen Exchange. But, it is a layer of less regulatory risk.
I think now is a good time to buy BYD (BYDDY) It's down over the last couple days because they are lowering prices and about to put the squeeeze to their competitors. They already have the best value product in their industry. Usually when a powerful global player with scale undercuts to gain share rapidly they get a lot higher multiple than \~20 It's the best combination of potential hypergrowth, leading tech, and valuation in the market
Does anyone know what happened with BYDDY? Fallen from 118 to 107 pretty much immediately at market open, and I can't find any relevant news.
Thinking of buying BYDDY dip.. what does TA say?
Really appreciate this breakdown — totally agree that BYD is all about execution while TSLA is selling the dream. I’m leaning BYDDY too. You can’t ignore that revenue lead and affordability angle. Curious to see how their $14B investment plays out in the next few years.
new etf - FHKP (Four Horsemen of the Ketapocalypse) - LCID, RIVN, BYDDY, GOOG (soon to be WYMO)
Short term; on paper BYDDY, in reality TSLA. Long term; TSLA by a long shot People bias and political opinions will sway their opinions. And TSLA isn’t just an EV company, every other competitor is yet TSLA are still the most well known and arguably best EV makers.
RIVN. Not really under the radar, but a ton of potential. Likewise BYDDY
BYD is currently 26.32, BYDDY is currently 27.7
sell all this crap and invest in RNMBY and BYDDY. You can wait for a correction or go straight in. if your goal is to hold for 6-36 months.
Nice. I’m too regarded to research how to trade non-US securities so I just have BYDDY
No once they split the stock I knew I had to hold & invest elsewhere, mainly been buying VOO & BYDDY recently.
TSLA to merge with BYDDY
I would like to buy one BYDDY electric vehicle 🇨🇳
What is Tesla and BYDDY merged?
Nope bought shares of CAH, BYDDY, ET, TM and TSM for today. Not in the options market currently. Also not a bear or bull. Just commenting on the trends.
He means Boyd Gaming, BYDDY = BYD cars.
Not saying I was right, I bought BYDDY several years ago because I was more comfortable holding the ADR even if it did cost something in bank fees. BYD has been a good company long term but with geopolitics it has also offered price swings.
You're telling me... BYDDY, BRK.B, TSLA calls. Way too early. 
RNMBY BYDDY This is adr
No I bought the BYDDY one.
finally bought some GLD. sold my BYDDY holding. didn't really want to but who knows what is going to happen with this admin
I started moving money to Chinese stocks (BYDDY), this chaos is not healthy for me and not healthy for my money
Honestly can’t go long enough GYNA stocks. BABA, JD, FXI, BIDU, BYDDY, TENCENT oh babyyyy
If I pick a balanced risk protected play, that is probably BYD. It doesn’t have US listing, but has sponsored ADR. Even if Trump delists China stock, it will just trade in HK instead. BYD has a huge economy of scale with global operations, and it even has its own ocean fleet… if you decide to buy, make sure it is BYDDY. BYDDF is unsponsored. If there is no tariff and non-tariff barrier, BYD is likely to steamroll every other car maker. It doesn’t have a meaningful presence in U.S., which is probably a plus.
I'll push for BYDDY, short term and long. Biggest downside is that it's Chinese, but I see this company doing well.
I loaded up on BYDDY and 10 other Chinese stocks today. They are undervalued compared to US stocks and I believe they have strong fundamentals. Fuck Trump
Webull has no transaction fee. I just bought 7 shares of BYDDY on there. Fidelity also does not charge any OTC transaction fee, so I bought 2 shares of BYDDY in my IRA account. I also bought a bit of Xiaomi stock too, because I saw how hard they dominate when I went shopping in Shanghai recently. Such a large product catalog with really good products. Mostly centered in IoT, appliances, and gadgets.
It says US OTC market securities commission is $6.95 per trade and for foreign stock transactions trades placed on the US OTC market is $50 transaction fee. So does that make a BYDDY trade in the US $6.95 or $50?
Here is all you need to know..... keeping China tarrifs high = favor for his buddy Elon (can't have BYDDY vehicles competing with TSLA). Give it a while to simmer down and Trump will have to settle. I recon he wants the tarrifs applied to aid the next TSLA earnings end of Apr (which will be disastrous for TSLA), then they'll have to settle. Expect them to end in early May. Also - buy Puts in TSLA because the moment these tarrifs drop, Tsla is cooked. Also buy LUCID, TSLAs closest competitor in US Everything you see is Trump doing his buddies a favor until next earnings
Quick q: With the possibility of Trump delisting specific equities from the NYSE. Does it make sense to swap out the BYDDY for BYDDF? If BYDDF is listed on HKSE would that essentially mean it would be unaffected by the delisting besides hurting the share price?
Pardon the noob question, but are there downsides to buying an ADR like BYDDY vs the real thing (which I'm assuming is inaccessible to me in the US)?
Reading up on it now it looks like BYDDY is in the OTC market so yeah it may not be at risk of getting booted. I gotta learn more about trading on OTC. It is a $50 trading fee I understand through Schwab.
BYDDY up, TSLA down. A tale old as time.
I was thinking of buying some BYDDY. Now I’m not so sure that is a good idea.
