So you know this stock is interesting.

It's been under some pressure.

It's down more than 20% so far this year, Goldman says, though OK, that is an opportunity because they say, yes, there's an investment cycle weighing on margins, more mixed consumer spending.

We know that's been weighing on the stock, but they tell their clients you stick with this one.

Because Shopify has significant technology mode in E commerce software share gain across E commerce cycles, they point out, Bottom line, that's gonna drive.

Goldman says.

Durable growth at scale.

Goldman does point out some risk, but bottom line, they say this was a buy to their clients.

Yeah, and the stock is down like 25% year to date.

So they're looking at it and seeing all of that, that is perhaps priced in and not justified, given that, um, and they talk about the the company has been investing in what they call large adjacency.

In other words, you know, sort of bolt on technology, things that are adjacent to their business.

That will be a creative over time.

And that's also one of the reasons that they like the stock.

Yeah, there are some downside risks, they point out.

Listen, they say consumer spending could be worse.

That would that would pressure GMV shares in E commerce could be a impact, they said, by kind of aggressive investment from companies rivals.

That's Amazon, Temu.

But that is not their base case here that they're buyers.
