description: "JPMorgan cut Trip.com's H-share target price to HKD560 and US share target to USD72, maintaining an Overweight rating. The broker views recent weakness as cyclical rather than structural damage from anti-monopoly rectification, which does not impair long-term profitability. Revenue forecasts for Q3 and Q4 2026 were lowered by 6% and 4% respectively due to macro headwinds, but JPM recommends accumulating the stock."

# JPM Cuts TRIP.COM-S  TP to HKD560; Rectification Does Not Hurt Profitability

JPM released a research report saying the market may tend to interpret TRIP.COM-S (09961.HK) +11.400 (+3.265%) Short selling $457.91M; Ratio 25.315% 's weak performance in 2H26 as structural damage caused by anti-monopoly rectification. The broker believes the weakness is mainly cyclical in nature, and that regulation changes the commercial form of monetization rather than damaging TRIP.COM-S (09961.HK) +11.400 (+3.265%) Short selling $457.91M; Ratio 25.315% 's profitability. It recommended investors accumulate the stock.

JPM noted that the anti-monopoly fine is a known, measurable and largely one-off impact, while the effect of the company's business transformation is also temporary.

It also cut the H-share TP from HKD600 to HKD560, while lowering the US share TP for Trip.com Group Limited (TCOM.US) from USD75 to USD72. Both ratings were maintained at Overweight.
