阿里巴巴的财报显示，中国消费不断飙升

The Chinese consumer is still spending, despite concerns about a trade war-induced economic slowdown. Online retail giant Alibaba reported a more than 40% jump in sales in its latest quarter, results that were better than analysts expected.

尽管人们担心贸易战会导致经济放缓，但中国消费者仍在消费。在线零售巨头阿里巴巴最近一个季度的销售额增长超过40%，这一结果好于分析师的预期。

The good news from Alibaba (BABA) comes on the same day that American retail giant Walmart(WMT), which owns a stake in Alibaba rival JD.com, also reported impressive results. JD (JD)posted solid sales growth earlier this week as well.

就在阿里巴巴发布这一好消息的同一天，美国零售巨头沃尔玛(Walmart)也公布了令人印象深刻的业绩。沃尔玛持有阿里巴巴竞争对手京东(JD.com)的股份。本周早些时候，京东也公布了强劲的销售增长。

Alibaba reported a healthy jump in mobile active users in the quarter and solid gains in sales at both its Tmall and Taobao platforms.

阿里巴巴报告称，该季度移动活跃用户健康增长，旗下天猫和淘宝平台的销售额均有稳步增长。

"We are pleased to see sustained user engagement and consumer spending," said Alibaba chief financial officer Maggie Wu in a statement.

阿里巴巴首席财务官吴季刚在一份声明中表示:“我们很高兴看到持续的用户参与和消费者支出。”

What's more, sales in Alibaba's cloud computing unit, which competes with Amazon (AMZN) and Microsoft(MSFT), soared 66% from a year ago.

此外，与亚马逊(Amazon)和微软(Microsoft)竞争的阿里巴巴云计算部门的销售额同比飙升66%。

Alibaba's cloud division helps companies around the world host their own sites and CEO Daniel Zhang promised more growth ahead.

阿里巴巴的云计算部门帮助世界各地的公司建立自己的网站，首席执行官张勇承诺未来会有更多的增长。

"With strong cash flow from our core commerce business, we will continue to invest in technology and bring digital transformation to millions of businesses globally," he said in the statement.

他在声明中表示:“由于我们的核心商业业务拥有强大的现金流，我们将继续投资于技术，为全球数百万企业带来数字化转型。”

Alibaba shares rose about 3% in early trading following the earnings announcement. JD soared earlier this week after it reported results. Both stocks fell Wednesday though, along with the broader market, as fears of a looming US recession grew.

财报公布后，阿里巴巴股价在早盘上涨约3%。本周早些时候，京东公布业绩后股价飙升。不过，由于对美国经济衰退的担忧加剧，这两只股票周三双双下跌，与大盘一起下跌。
