Shopify has had a tremendous run, but he expects competition to hit them, offering a cheaper service. That said, Salesforce's moat is good--it isn't worth saving, say, $30 a month to learn a brand-new business software for your business. Salesforece has also been around longer and proven their staying power, whereas Shopify's stock price is based on future projections. Also, Shopify has a longer runway for growth than Salesforce.

Salesforce compared to Facebook and Google? Software company, trades at a high multiple, which is holding her back from buying. It’s more a momentum stock, any stumble and it will pull back. Not similar to Facebook or Google, which are advertising plays on the internet. Great company. Wait for pullback.
