This summary was created by AI, based on 67 opinions in the last 12 months.

Shopify Inc. has garnered mixed reviews from experts regarding its performance and valuation. While many acknowledge its strong business model and potential for growth, especially with the integration of AI into its services, concerns about its inflated valuation persist. The stock showcases impressive revenue growth, with recent quarterly earnings reporting a substantial increase, yet the high price-to-earnings ratio raises apprehensions among analysts about potential market corrections. Experts emphasize the company's unique position in the e-commerce ecosystem and its resilience despite economic challenges; however, they caution that the prevailing high valuation leaves limited room for errors. Overall, while Shopify is viewed as a significant player in the tech and e-commerce space, the investment sentiment is tempered due to its high price relative to earnings and growth expectations.

DON'T BUY

This stock is way too expensive. It is priced for perfection. Stocks like this can drop $40 in a heartbeat. This company doesn’t disclose its churn number. It also started a capital program in which they advance money to small clients. He wonders whether the loans are merely paying the fees to Shopify and what would be left if the loans weren’t there. In general, he doesn’t like the idea of being in the business of giving loans to your own customers. If you hold the stock and have made money at this level, you should sell because there is a lot of volatility to come.

DON'T BUY

No doubt about its growth potential, and it has been successful. But you're paying too much for
the future--it's pricing for the future. What if SHOP hits a bump? He wouldn't buy it here, though
you've done well if you bought it earlier. Overall, tech stocks are partly carried by momentum.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Stock has been and will remain on an uptrend. But how much do you pay for growth? Watch it and buy on pullbacks. When it matures, cash will spill out of it.

DON'T BUY

This hit a record high today. This is a great Canadian tech company but he would not buy it at this level. It is overvalued.. It trades at 15x 2018 sales.

DON'T BUY

The stock has done very well, but it's extremely rich--a risky valuation. There are cheaper, less risky tech stocks out there. Possibly, Amazon or somebody can just copy what they're doing. Also, he's worried that a lot of money is being invested here merely because it's the lone Canadian tech stock (not counting Blackberry).

DON'T BUY

One of the best growth stocks in Canada in the last year. This is a momentum investment. He is a value investor so it does not fit him. The 12 month target is $180.00 and we are at $190, so not a lot of optimism. A lot of this year’s news is already in the stock.

DON'T BUY

He thinks this company has a good platform, but the challenge is around valuation. Recent rumours could cause multiples to drop quickly.

BUY

It was a great stock until a short report a few months ago that claimed the stock was too expensive. Then, the company issued amazing numbers. She likes this, but would love it if it were cheaper.

BUY

Continues to own this one. This is a company that has been compared to Amazon or Alibaba. It is bringing e-commerce to everyone. The valuation it is high, but the growth is no contest to any company in Canada. 70% year over year sales growth. They have been taking profits but more to avoid portfolio concentration.

TOP PICK

In the merchant cloud service. Earnings are fantastic. Revenue growth of 46%. Ticking all the boxes. They have a 200 dollars target. (Analysts’ price target is $175.41)

DON'T BUY

He does not believe that the business model is wrong, but at current valuation levels. There is no argument with the business model. It could become the global platform all retail and would be worth double then. The expectations right now are just too high.

WATCH

One to trade rather than hold long-term. It took a full year to crack $150. It may have higher support left. If it holds to $150 support level, it could be off to the races.

HOLD

Great Canadian success story. A global leader. Valuation is not cheap, so it is hard to pound the table and tell people to establish a new position.

BUY

Has broken out of a sideways movement. It dropped today with the correction, but technically it looks very good. As long as it stays above the breakout point (above 149), it’s good.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Had it and sold it too soon. He loves the stock and the concept. Just got a little nervous. Not a market stock. If it goes back to 100 he would buy it. They are not earning anything yet but the growth on their customer base is excellent.
