Investment Thesis
While Marriott (MAR) is still valued at the high end of its 52-week range, it still has room to grow. Marriott's joint venture with Alibaba (BABA) will allow it increased access to the Chinese market and improve on their digital structure, something that I don't believe has been factored into their stock price yet.
