Chinese e-ecommerce platfrom JD.com debuted on the Nasdaq with a splash Thursday, opening with a nearly 15% pop at $21.75 shortly after 11 am。

周四中国电商平台京东商城[微博]首次在纳斯达克上市，美国东部时间上午11点左右，京东最终以21.75美元价格开盘，涨幅将近15%。

The company sold 93.7 million American depositary shares at $19 apiece, above the expected $16-$18 range in a deal where demand wildly outstripped supply。

京东以每股19美元的价格出售了9370万美国存托股票，高出预计的每股16-18美元价格，但仍供不应求。

"I think investors do realize the strength of JD.com's business model. So [the IPO] has been well received," said CFO Sidney Huang in an interview on CNBC。

京东财务总监黄宣德在接受CNBC采访时说：“我想投资者确实意识到了京东商业模式的强劲发展势头，所以京东上市刚一开盘就收效喜人。”

JD.com runs China's largest online direct sales business. Like Amazon.com, the company buys goods from manufacturers and distributors, stocks these products in warehouses and offers them for purchase via its website。
