Shein raises $1.7 billion in Hong Kong IPO
Shein raised $1.7 billion in its Hong Kong initial public offering, giving the fast-fashion group a market value of about $26 billion, according to a Bloomberg report carried by Techmeme. That is far below its roughly $100 billion valuation in 2022, as tariffs, slower growth and competition weigh on the company.
