Trip.com Group (NASDAQ:TCOM) Is Doing The Right Things To Multiply Its Share Price

If you're not sure where to start when looking for the next multi-bagger, there are a few key trends you should keep an eye out for. Typically, we'll want to notice a trend of growing return on capital employed (ROCE) and alongside that, an expanding base of capital employed. Basically this means that a company has profitable initiatives that it can continue to reinvest in, which is a trait of a compounding machine. So on that note, Group (NASDAQ:TCOM) looks quite promising in regards to its trends of return on capital. This technology could replace computers: discover the 20 stocks are working to make quantum computing a reality. Return On Capital Employed (ROCE): What Is It? For those who don't know, ROCE is a measure of a company's yearly pre-tax profit (its return), relative to the capital employed in the business. Analysts use this formula to calculate it for Group: Return on Capital Employed = Earnings Before Interest and Tax (EBIT) ÷ (Total Assets - Current Liabilities) 0.084 = CN¥14b ÷ (CN¥248b - CN¥77b) (Based on the trailing twelve months to March 2025). So, Group has an ROCE of 8.4%. On its own, that's a low figure but it's around the 10% average generated by the Hospitality industry. Check out our latest analysis for Group In the above chart we have measured Group's prior ROCE against its prior performance, but the future is arguably more important. If you'd like, you can check out the forecasts from the analysts covering Group for free. The Trend Of ROCE While in absolute terms it isn't a high ROCE, it's promising to see that it has been moving in the right direction. The numbers show that in the last five years, the returns generated on capital employed have grown considerably to 8.4%. Basically the business is earning more per dollar of capital invested and in addition to that, 33% more capital is being employed now too. So we're very much inspired by what we're seeing at Group thanks to its ability to profitably reinvest capital. The Bottom Line To sum it up, Group has proven it can reinvest in the business and generate higher returns on that capital employed, which is terrific. Since the stock has returned a staggering 119% to shareholders over the last five years, it looks like investors are recognizing these changes. With that being said, we still think the promising fundamentals mean the company deserves some further due diligence. While Group looks impressive, no company is worth an infinite price. The intrinsic value infographic for TCOM helps visualize whether it is currently trading for a fair price. While Group may not currently earn the highest returns, we've compiled a list of companies that currently earn more than 25% return on equity. Check out this free list here.

Inside OpenAI's quest to make AI do anything for you

Shortly after Hunter Lightman joined OpenAI as a researcher in 2022, he watched his colleagues launch ChatGPT, one of the fastest-growing products ever. Meanwhile, Lightman quietly worked on a team teaching OpenAI's models to solve high school math competitions. Today that team, known as MathGen, is considered instrumental to OpenAI's industry-leading effort to create AI reasoning models: the core technology behind AI agents that can do tasks on a computer like a human would. 'We were trying to make the models better at mathematical reasoning, which at the time they weren't very good at,' Lightman told TechCrunch, describing MathGen's early work. OpenAI's models are far from perfect today — the company's latest AI systems still hallucinate and its agents struggle with complex tasks. But its state-of-the-art models have improved significantly on mathematical reasoning. One of OpenAI's models recently won a gold medal at the International Math Olympiad, a math competition for the world's brightest high school students. OpenAI believes these reasoning capabilities will translate to other subjects, and ultimately power general-purpose agents that the company has always dreamed of building. ChatGPT was a happy accident — a lowkey research preview turned viral consumer business — but OpenAI's agents are the product of a years-long, deliberate effort within the company. 'Eventually, you'll just ask the computer for what you need and it'll do all of these tasks for you,' said OpenAI CEO Sam Altman at the company's first developer conference in 2023. 'These capabilities are often talked about in the AI field as agents. The upsides of this are going to be tremendous.'

Less than a year later, the 21 foundational researchers behind that breakthrough are the most highly sought-after talent in Silicon Valley. Mark Zuckerberg recruited five of the o1 researchers to work on Meta's new superintelligence-focused unit, offering some compensation packages north of $100 million. One of them, Shengjia Zhao, was recently named chief scientist of Meta Superintelligence Labs. The reinforcement learning renaissance The rise of OpenAI's reasoning models and agents are tied to a machine learning training technique known as reinforcement learning (RL). RL provides feedback to an AI model on whether its choices were correct or not in simulated environments. RL has been used for decades. For instance, in 2016, about a year after OpenAI was founded in 2015, an AI system created by Google DeepMind using RL, AlphaGo, gained global attention after beating a world champion in the board game, Go. South Korean professional Go player Lee Se-Dol (R) prepares for his fourth match against Google's artificial intelligence program, AlphaGo, during the Google DeepMind Challenge Match on March 13, 2016 in Seoul, South Korea.

(Photo by Google via Getty Images) Around that time, one of OpenAI's first employees, Andrej Karpathy, began pondering how to leverage RL to create an AI agent that could use a computer. But it would take years for OpenAI to develop the necessary models and training techniques. By 2018, OpenAI pioneered its first large language model in the GPT series, pretrained on massive amounts of internet data and a large clusters of GPUs. GPT models excelled at text processing, eventually leading to ChatGPT, but struggled with basic math. It took until 2023 for OpenAI to achieve a breakthrough, initially dubbed 'Q*' and then 'Strawberry,' by combining LLMs, RL, and a technique called test-time computation. The latter gave the models extra time and computing power to plan and work through problems, verifying its steps, before providing an answer. This allowed OpenAI to introduce a new approach called 'chain-of-thought' (CoT), which improved AI's performance on math questions the models hadn't seen before. 'I could see the model starting to reason,' said El Kishky. 'It would notice mistakes and backtrack, it would get frustrated. It really felt like reading the thoughts of a person.' Though individually these techniques weren't novel, OpenAI uniquely combined them to create Strawberry, which directly led to the development of o1. OpenAI quickly identified that the planning and fact checking abilities of AI reasoning models could be useful to power AI agents. 'We had solved a problem that I had been banging my head against for a couple of years,' said Lightman. 'It was one of the most exciting moments of my research career.' Scaling reasoning With AI reasoning models, OpenAI determined it had two new axes that would allow it to improve AI models: using more computational power during the post-training of AI models, and giving AI models more time and processing power while answering a question. 'OpenAI, as a company, thinks a lot about not just the way things are, but the way things are going to scale,' said Lightman. Shortly after the 2023 Strawberry breakthrough, OpenAI spun up an 'Agents' team led by OpenAI researcher Daniel Selsam to make further progress on this new paradigm, two sources told TechCrunch. Although the team was called 'Agents,' OpenAI didn't initially differentiate between reasoning models and agents as we think of them today. The company just wanted to make AI systems capable of completing complex tasks. Eventually, the work of Selsam's Agents team became part of a larger project to develop the o1 reasoning model, with leaders including OpenAI co-founder Ilya Sutskever, chief research officer Mark Chen, and chief scientist Jakub Pachocki.

(Photo by JACK GUEZ / AFP) Image Credits:Getty Images OpenAI would have to divert precious resources — mainly talent and GPUs — to create o1. Throughout OpenAI's history, researchers have had to negotiate with company leaders to obtain resources; demonstrating breakthroughs was a surefire way to secure them. 'One of the core components of OpenAI is that everything in research is bottom up,' said Lightman. 'When we showed the evidence [for o1], the company was like, 'This makes sense, let's push on it.'' Some former employees say that the startup's mission to develop AGI was the key factor in achieving breakthroughs around AI reasoning models. By focusing on developing the smartest-possible AI models, rather than products, OpenAI was able to prioritize o1 above other efforts. That type of large investment in ideas wasn't always possible at competing AI labs. The decision to try new training methods proved prescient. By late 2024, several leading AI labs started seeing diminishing returns on models created through traditional pretraining scaling. Today, much of the AI field's momentum comes from advances in reasoning models. What does it mean for an AI to 'reason?' In many ways, the goal of AI research is to recreate human intelligence with computers. Since the launch of o1, ChatGPT's UX has been filled with more human-sounding features such as 'thinking' and 'reasoning.' When asked whether OpenAI's models were truly reasoning, El Kishky hedged, saying he thinks about the concept in terms of computer science. 'We're teaching the model how to efficiently expend compute to get an answer. So if you define it that way, yes, it is reasoning,' said El Kishky. Lightman takes the approach of focusing on the model's results and not as much on the means or their relation to human brains. The OpenAI logo on screen at their developer day stage. (Credit: Devin Coldeway) Image Credits:Devin Coldewey 'If the model is doing hard things, then it is doing whatever necessary approximation of reasoning it needs in order to do that,' said Lightman. 'We can call it reasoning, because it looks like these reasoning traces, but it's all just a proxy for trying to make AI tools that are really powerful and useful to a lot of people.' OpenAI's researchers note people may disagree with their nomenclature or definitions of reasoning — and surely, critics have emerged — but they argue it's less important than the capabilities of their models. Other AI researchers tend to agree. Nathan Lambert, an AI researcher with the non-profit AI2, compares AI reasoning modes to airplanes in a blog post. Both, he says, are manmade systems inspired by nature — human reasoning and bird flight, respectively — but they operate through entirely different mechanisms. That doesn't make them any less useful, or any less capable of achieving similar outcomes. A group of AI researchers from OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google DeepMind agreed in a recent position paper that AI reasoning models are not well understood today, and more research is needed. It may be too early to confidently claim what exactly is going on inside them. The next frontier: AI agents for subjective tasks The AI agents on the market today work best for well-defined, verifiable domains such as coding. OpenAI's Codex agent aims to help software engineers offload simple coding tasks. Meanwhile, Anthropic's models have become particularly popular in AI coding tools like Cursor and Claude Code — these are some of the first AI agents that people are willing to pay up for. However, general purpose AI agents like OpenAI's ChatGPT Agent and Perplexity's Comet struggle with many of the complex, subjective tasks people want to automate. When trying to use these tools for online shopping or finding a long-term parking spot, I've found the agents take longer than I'd like and make silly mistakes. Agents are, of course, early systems that will undoubtedly improve. But researchers must first figure out how to better train the underlying models to complete tasks that are more subjective. AI applications (Photo by Jonathan Raa/NurPhoto via Getty Images) 'Like many problems in machine learning, it's a data problem,' said Lightman, when asked about the limitations of agents on subjective tasks. 'Some of the research I'm really excited about right now is figuring out how to train on less verifiable tasks. We have some leads on how to do these things.' Noam Brown, an OpenAI researcher who helped create the IMO model and o1, told TechCrunch that OpenAI has new general-purpose RL techniques which allow them to teach AI models skills that aren't easily verified. This was how the company built the model which achieved a gold medal at IMO, he said. OpenAI's IMO model was a newer AI system that spawns multiple agents, which then simultaneously explore several ideas, and then choose the best possible answer. These types of AI models are becoming more popular; Google and xAI have recently released state-of-the-art models using this technique. 'I think these models will become more capable at math, and I think they'll get more capable in other reasoning areas as well,' said Brown. 'The progress has been incredibly fast. I don't see any reason to think it will slow down.' These techniques may help OpenAI's models become more performant, gains that could show up in the company's upcoming GPT-5 model. OpenAI hopes to assert its dominance over competitors with the launch of GPT-5, ideally offering the best AI model to power agents for developers and consumers. But the company also wants to make its products simpler to use. El Kishky says OpenAI wants to develop AI agents that intuitively understand what users want, without requiring them to select specific settings. He says OpenAI aims to build AI systems that understand when to call up certain tools, and how long to reason for. These ideas paint a picture of an ultimate version of ChatGPT: an agent that can do anything on the internet for you, and understand how you want it to be done. That's a much different product than what ChatGPT is today, but the company's research is squarely headed in this direction. While OpenAI undoubtedly led the AI industry a few years ago, the company now faces a tranche of worthy opponents. The question is no longer just whether OpenAI can deliver its agentic future, but can the company do so before Google, Anthropic, xAI, or Meta beat them to it?
