How it happened

Uxin was once China's largest online used-car marketplace, reaching a market capitalization of about $2.83B when it listed on Nasdaq in June 2018. Mounting losses, short-seller fraud allegations, a costly pivot away from its loan-facilitation business and the pandemic battered the stock; after a reverse split it has traded at roughly $0.6–0.7B β€” about a quarter of its IPO-day value β€” and has stayed well below the $1B unicorn line for years despite a turn toward used-car superstores.
