Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached its target in 35 days.
The thesis — published September 24, 2025
Shopify is rebounding on real news: Amazon now lets Shopify sellers use its shipping network across more channels, and early results show about a 19% sales boost. That can lift the total dollars flowing through Shopify stores and keep merchants loyal. Over the next 0-3 months, dips toward the recent average price may invite buyers. Key risks are higher rates and a rich price tag.
Primary drivers
- Amazon's shipping service for Shopify sellers is lifting sales about 19%
- Buying interest is stronger than usual, and price momentum is improving
- Merchants more likely to stay, raising total dollars processed on Shopify
- High price tag adds risk, so careful entry points help manage downside
