Shopify Inc. (SHOP-T)

Pay attention to the old highs (~$200), and stock's getting close to them. Recent peak does appear to be breaking the last one. Probably will get to the $200 area, so still a few bucks to go. From there, that's when to start chewing your nails, as it's stalled there before when those old buyers just want their money back.

Still a decent runway to price target of $178, so don't trim. Look to trim if it gets above $170. Because of the volatility, writing some calls would be pretty lucrative.

Very high valuation. On any fears of potential slowing, stock moves quite a bit. People probably trade it a lot. Great company, democratizing e-commerce for everybody. Tariffs may impact volumes until we get more clarity.

It is growing at 20% per year but trading at 100X earnings so there is a valuation risk. It is a good company but not so much the stock. It uses different software for different vendors and expanding internationally. It could go sideways or down.

AMD vs. Shopify

Prfers SHOP. AMD is fully priced. He targets $125 USD for SHOP. Don't sell AMD, just raise some calls against it.

No idea if there's more upside. Very expensive. Doesn't have the consistency he looks for. Better opportunities at better prices elsewhere.

Fine job in utilizing AI, becoming more efficient. Cosmetics and clothing are two of its bigger channels, and these are among the easiest to switch supply chains. This makes those segments relatively less impacted by trade and tariff volatility. No dividend.

Look at the 5-year chart. The peak in 2021 concerns him on valuation. Not surprising that it came into resistance when it entered a similar window earlier this year. Likes buying dips, don't chase here.

A Canadian stock that will be a major beneficiary of AI. 

Valuation is 61x forward PE with 25% growth, giving a PEG ratio of well over 2x. 200-week MA is trending lower, which is not a fantastic technical sign. Have to watch out for rivals such as AMZN and ETSY. Depends more on small-and mid-sized businesses, which can be affected more by any economic downturn.

Not ready to buy. Stock's suffered, but still not cheap. Lots of growth is built into the share price. If recession, consumers will stop buying or buy less. He'd prefer AMZN, quite frankly.

Growth company that hasn't been smashed, despite coming down from highs. Flirting with getting into the NASDAQ 100; if it goes down there, will be a lot more buying. Last quarter earnings were good, subscription revenue up, and executing well. But it's pricey.

Must-own name, but you have to buy it at the right level. Very whippy, use the technicals to buy.
