Shopify Inc. is perceived as a high-quality company in the e-commerce sector with strong growth potential, particularly in leveraging AI technologies. Experts highlight its recent performance, including substantial revenue growth and a competent positioning within the market. However, the company faces challenges related to its valuation, which is considered high by many analysts, with a forward PE ratio often cited around 60x and high volatility in its stock price. While there is optimism around future growth and expanding into international markets, concerns regarding AI threats and its servicing of small to medium businesses—often regarded as more volatile—cast a shadow on its overall investment appeal. Despite these challenges, many see Shopify's innovative capabilities as a key component of its long-term success, further complicated by the general market's sentiment towards tech stocks.

Valuation

BUY

Volatile with serious moves, like today up 2%. It's starting to break above resistance, which is good. This could very well break out to new highs, because it's still charting higher. Overall, the Canadian tech sector is amazing. Good for the long term.

BUY

Great Canadian success story. Not cheap, and extremely volatile. But it's resilient and has always bounced back. He'd continue to buy. It's a high multiple stock, so gets hit harder when the market gets hit.

COMMENT

For a volatile stock, this has hit a wall at the bottom. Complicated. It's had a huge run, but it's been very volatile lately. It could rise to $240, maybe. It's hanging into a tighter range more than ever and now behaving like a typical stock.

DON'T BUY

He prefers U.S. tech names. SHOP has rich foward valuation at 270x with a 42% long-term growth rate. Since June, it's been showing lower highs and lower lows. Not good. SHOP relies on its relationships with Amazon, eBay and Facebook so any changes there could hurt SHOP. Another worry is the quality of some of its merchant-clients involved in "drop shipping." Volatile and high-beta. He's never owned this.

WATCH

E-commerce remains strong, but he expects regulatory headwinds coming. It's too expensive now, though he's following it. Shopify is the only competitor to Facebook.

WATCH

He's owned it in the past. He likes the company and its recurring revenue, but they don't have net income. What really worries him is competition in this space. It's overvalued at the moment, but has held up quite well. $170-220 is their range for the past year. Wait till it breaks below $170, but it's anyone's guess whether it goes one way or another.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jan 26/18, Up 33%) Their Q3 was a good beat, up 58% YOY. He expects even more this year. He see 230% EPS growth this year. But it trades at 160x 2020 earnings.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Feb 16/18, Up 13%) There have been some pretty big swings. It is only a matter of time before it breaks out of the trend and moves further up.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jan 17/18, Up 38%) Exited this trade in July when it was even higher, as they were de-risking portfolios. The valuation was high, and some concern about churn in the customer base.

BUY

He likes it and thinks it has a great future. It is an expensive stock but the earnings and revenue growth are going to be spectacular. They are still building the business.

DON'T BUY

Walking upstairs. Its balance sheet is like up-flat-up flat. He sees a gap between its fair market value and its stock price (87% in his opinion).

DON'T BUY

This is a wonderful company, but the valuation has always been to high for him to buy. The price has fallen as the company announced an offering as the market questioned the needs for the funds. He would suggest taking some tax-loss selling and re-position next year.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jan 26/18, Up 13%) They executed very well. Q3 was a beat. He is modeling 230% EPS growth. Great name, It trades at a very high multiple. Trading at 133 2020 earnings. he still think it will go higher. Not for the faint of heart.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jan 03/18, Up 33%) A fantastic name. Buy it on drops. Not for the faint of heart. It sees big swings. It's a long-term hold

WAIT

Good price point? Extremely volatile. Has been in and out of it, a stock you have to trade. At $145-155, is where he'd look to buy. They're raising a lot of cash for their growth.
