Alibaba has been a controversial stock lately due to politics and regulatory scrutiny. But with its recent announcement to break itself up into as many as six individual businesses, is this good or bad news for investors? I believe it could be a positive catalyst for a few reasons. First, it potentially gets Chinese regulators off Alibaba's back. Second, the split could unlock value for shareholders. The stock's cheap enough to capitalize on changes too. While political risks may never go away completely, owning the stock now could get investors shares at a favorable valuation. Only time will tell, but it seems like Alibaba's finally becoming an intriguing stock idea after many months of turmoil. What do you guys think?
