After Another Impressive Quarter for Shopify, Is Shopify Stock Headed Back to Its All-Time High?

Will Shopify Stock Be Worth More Than Amazon by 2035?

The scorching post-election rally that lifted stocks across all market capitalizations and verticals paused this past week. Even post-earning surges in select CE 100 names were not enough to lift the overall index, which slipped 1.5%.

Shopify Inc. (NYSE: SHOP) has cemented its position as a leader in the e-commerce sector.

The e-commerce software company is living up to all the hype -- and then some.

Shopify Inc. reported strong Q3 results this week, beating earnings and revenue estimates, driven by robust growth in both segments. Shopify is seeing strong growth in all key platform metrics, including GMV, gross profits and especially free cash flow. The firm's free cash flows are growing twice as fast as its revenues and Shopify is expanding its FCF margins.

Shopify (SHOP) could produce exceptional returns because of its solid growth attributes.

When deciding whether to buy, sell, or hold a stock, investors often rely on analyst recommendations. Media reports about rating changes by these brokerage-firm-employed (or sell-side) analysts often influence a stock's price, but are they really important?

Shopify's Q3 earnings exceeded expectations with $0.35 EPS and $2.16 billion revenue, showcasing strong margins and earnings growth despite challenging consumer conditions. Shopify's valuation metrics, including forward P/E (98.67x) and forward P/S (16.25x), are significantly higher than industry peers, indicating potential valuation risks. Recent bullish rallies have pushed Shopify's stock into overbought territory, with key support levels at $77.12 and $65.86 critical for maintaining a bullish outlook.
