Silicon Valley eyes Chinese e-retailer Alibaba's IPO

Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba is set to float on the New York Stock Exchange on Friday in what is expected to be the biggest IPO of all time.

Alibaba looks likely to raise more than $20 billion, having increased its target price range to between $66 and $68 a share.

The company remains relatively unknown in the United States, despite processing more sales per year than Amazon and eBay put together.

It owns China's largest shopping website, Taobao, runs the online payment system Alipay, and has made strategic investments in a number of Californian companies including ride-sharing firm Lyft.

Silicon Valley analyst Tim Bajarin (PRON: Ba-hare-in) says the future is bright for the world's largest internet and e-commerce firm.
