Didi Global, the Chinese ride-hailing giant, has reported quarterly loss of $4.7 billion ending September and bringing total losses of 2021 to $6.3 billion. Since Didi Global IPO in June 2021, the market value of Didi Global has fell from $68 billion to $24 billion (31/12/21). In recent months, China had launched a cyber-investigation into Didi Global with its app removed from App Store, and requiring Chinese companies with sensitive data or technology to require national security approval before they are able to list in foreign stock exchange. In early December 2021, Didi Global announced plans to delist from New York Stock Exchange, and prepare for a listing on Hong Kong Exchange (HKEX). (IPO ~ Initial Public Offerings)
