What Else: The e-commerce platform reported strong first-quarter results last Thursday, with revenue climbing 26.8% year-over-year to $2.36 billion, beating estimates.

Gross merchandise volume rose 22.8% to $74.75 billion, though adjusted EPS of 25 cents narrowly missed forecasts. Analysts cited robust growth in global merchant activity and resilient consumer demand as key drivers.

Sentiment also improved as the U.S. and China reached a landmark agreement to slash tariffs, easing recession and inflation fears. With U.S. tariffs dropping from 145% to 30% and China's from 125% to 10%, global trade pressures are receding.

Shopify ( SHOP ) noted minimal exposure to Chinese imports, suggesting limited direct impact from prior tariff risks. Analysts from Goldman Sachs and Piper Sandler expect continued growth into the second-quarter, with revenue forecast around $2.56 billion and EPS of 30 cents.
