  "account": "Chinese e-commerce giant Shein aims to achieve a stock valuation between $26 billion and $27 billion in its upcoming Hong Kong public offering, according to a Bloomberg report citing sources familiar with the process. This represents a significant decline from the company's peak valuation of $100 billion in 2022. Shein plans to raise approximately $2 billion through the operation, which could be completed by the end of the month, contingent on investor interest. While final details on the size, valuation, and timing of the transaction may change, recent projections from Bloomberg Intelligence suggest the company's accounts and business operations are valued between $22 billion and $25 billion prior to its IPO. This is a sharp decline of up to 78% compared to Shein's valuation in 2022. In May, Chinese regulators approved Shein's application to list on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, paving the way for the long-awaited operation after previous attempts to list in New York and London were thwarted by political opposition and scrutiny over the company's supply chain in China. Shein's popularity surged during the pandemic due to its low prices, but its valuation has been hampered by US tariffs and the removal of tax exemptions that allowed the company to avoid import duties when shipping orders to the US or the EU.",
