Meiwu Technology Co Ltd(WNW.US) has unexpectedly captured market attention. Following the company's acquisition announcement, its stock surged 47.98% to $3.67 in after-hours trading, and continued its gains in pre-market trading, rising approximately 44% to $3.57 so far.
About the company: Meiwu Technology is a small Chinese company operating in the beauty and skincare sector, focusing on the AI-powered MOBO App platform, which connects brand owners, distributors, retailers, and beauty salons. Its services include skin assessment and diagnosis, product recommendations, e-commerce, and data analysis.
But prior to this surge, the stock had been in a clear long-term downtrend, having declined 98.56% over the past 12 months and 34.74% over the last three months . Therefore, the current move appears more like a strong, news-driven rally, and it's still too early to consider it the definitive start of a new upward trend.
Acquiring Xiamen Hemeitong: A network of 1,600 clients could be the ultimate target
On August 20, Meiwu subsidiary Xiamen Chunshang Health Technology signed an ownership transfer agreement with Xiamen Hemeitong Commercial , to acquire 100% of the company’s shares for 23.52 million Chinese yuan in cash , subject to customary closing conditions.
Hemeitong operates in the distribution of functional skincare products in South and East China, and has a business network of approximately 1,600 brand owners, retailers and beauty salons .
For Meiwu, the core value of the deal may lie not only in the traditional skincare product distribution business, but also in the potential to use this network to expand the commercial customer base of the AI-powered MOBO platform.
MOBO offers services including AI-powered skin analysis and diagnosis, product recommendations, e-commerce tools, and data analytics for beauty industry clients. The company expects the Hemeitong network to help attract more business clients to the platform, while also expanding its database and accelerating the development of its features.
According to the valuation report issued by Beijing Yingyue Asset Appraisal , the estimated value of 100% of Hemeitong’s shares was approximately 239.4 million yuan as of June 30, 2026.
It is important to note that the currently available materials do not include a rating or target price from an investment bank or financial institution, nor do they include an independent institutional valuation of the deal . Therefore, the current surge more accurately reflects the immediate market reaction to the potential integration of "distribution networks and artificial intelligence in skincare," rather than a fundamental shift in the company's performance that has been confirmed by institutions to date.
Technical analysis: The real test begins after the jump.
Technical indicators for Meiwu Technology Co Ltd(WNW.US) remain cautious. Data shows the Relative Strength Index (RSI) at around 40.24 , while the price trend remains negative across various timeframes.
However, the acquisition news led to a clear change in the stock's short-term movement structure:
- $2.25: A significant low area, viewed as an important support level whose ability to hold is worth monitoring.
- $2.48: The closing price of Wednesday's regular session, representing the baseline before the deal news was released.
- $3.67: The high level the stock reached in after-hours trading, and it will be important to monitor its ability to move from a news-driven level to actual support.
- Near $4: An important psychological level, and could form a resistance zone if the stock continues to rise.
If the stock manages to hold above $3.67 after the open, with trading volumes continuing to rise, the market may continue pricing in expectations of MOBO's expansion following the deal. However, if the stock quickly falls below $3.67 after the open, or even to $2.48, it could signal a potential sharp pullback after the news-driven rally .
Trading strategy: Watch for stability first, don't chase the rise
For small companies with a market capitalization of around $65 million , daily fluctuations can be sharp. Given WNW's previous significant declines, the current rally alone is insufficient to confirm a long-term trend reversal.
For short-term traders, the focus can be on price action around $3.67. Maintaining these levels with high trading volumes may indicate a repricing of the stock, while a rapid decline may mean that the momentum generated by the news is beginning to fade.
For medium-term investors, it is best to focus on the actual results of the deal after its completion, including the ability of the 1,600-customer network to become actual customers of the MOBO platform, the growth of AI business revenues, and whether the deal will contribute to improving the company’s operational performance.
Does this rise reflect just a short-term, news-driven rebound, or does it represent the beginning of a real turnaround for Meiwu Technology Co Ltd(WNW.US) after a long period of decline?
Attention Investors: Shares of small-cap companies are characterized by high levels of volatility and risk, and may experience sharp price movements in both directions over short periods.
