IMHO, no company is indispensable, especially in China. More so for those companies billed to be "too big to fail". Jack Ma has paid a hefty price for taking on the government.
That's the common perception, especially outside of China. But looking back there are many early signs of impending regulations/wealth redistribution even before the speech was made.
And new regulations, clearly isn't narrowly targeted towards Alibaba as well.
“If you buy a business just because it’s undervalued, then you have to worry about selling it when it reaches its intrinsic value. That’s hard. But if you can buy a few great companies, then you can sit on your ass. That’s a good thing.” - Charlie Munger
