I featured Shopify at $26.82 on March 8, 2016. Now at $75.95
Reference my post from March 8, 2016 when it was trading for $26.82: “Shopify upgraded with a $35 price target. Breakout at $24. Near-term uptrend and momentum indicators confirming the move.”
Update May 2, 2017: Shopify reports first quarter results – Revenue +75%
Update May 3, 2017, Financial Post article: Why investors should stick with the ‘hot hand’ that is Shopify Inc.

Stockcharts.com displays adjusted charts as a default. The data is adjusted by adding dividends back into the stock price. When a company pays a relatively high dividend, this has a dramatic impact on the weekly chart. It is my opinion that unadjusted charts should be used in technical analysis. The following three-year weekly charts for Dream Office REIT highlight the impact of using adjusted charts. What chart would you use for your chart analysis? Or, does it matter?

Metro 10-month daily chart showing the breakout after the quarterly release. Metro will test major resistance at 48. RSI and MACD are confirming the intermediate uptrend and near-term uptrend.
Sales in the second quarter of 2017 reached $2,902.4 million, up 0.7% compared to $2,882.0 million in the second quarter of 2016. Same-store sales were up 0.3% (5.0% in the same quarter last year). Our food basket experienced more deflation than in the previous quarter, at about 2.0% (inflation of 3.0% last year), which largely explains our modest sales growth.
We realized net earnings of $132.4 million in the second quarter of 2017, an increase of 6.0% from $124.9 million for the corresponding quarter of 2016, and fully diluted net earnings per share of $0.56 versus $0.51 in 2016, an increase of 9.8%. Read more of the report………..
