Sheridan&#8217;s internet picks:

Google continues to play an essential role in online commerce. Google and YouTube are present in 2/3rd of journeys where consumers discover new brands, products, or retailers.
Google was aligned with this vision of the future of multimodal search and spoke to their focus on Google Lens, which now serves over 20 billion monthly queries. Text-based search remains normative, and generative AI products augment the experience.
Amazon is also experimenting with visual search with Amazon Lens and is pleased with the various ways shoppers engage with the product, which suggests that users are deriving value from it.
Amazon launched its AI shopping assistant, Rufus, in 2024.
Google launched a more conversational version of Google Shopping last October. Over 1 billion people shop across Google every day, and the company sees Google Shopping as an essential part of its broader commerce strategy.
Walmart noted an opportunity to enhance the customer experience by cross-functionally driving its retail media stream. This collaboration across retail media, data, marketing, and other customer experiences will drive profit while enabling a frictionless customer experience.  
Sheridan expects Shopify to see traction in B2B due to the market&#8217;s legacy replacement cycle and relatively benign competitive backdrop.

Bitcoin Whale Strategy Along With Nike, Shopify, Boeing, Tesla: Why These 5 Stocks Are On Investors' Radars Today

Shopify Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SHOP#NYSE">SHOP</a>) shares traded higher on Wednesday driven by overall market strength following the Federal Reserve&#8217;s decision to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/03/44403637/fed-holds-rates-while-growth-forecasts-slip-inflation-projections-rise">hold interest rates steady</a>.
What To Know: The Fed opted to hold the federal funds rate at a range of 4.25% to 4.50% at its Wednesday meeting, suggesting that the economy remains healthy enough to leave rates unchanged. 
The central bank's March statement highlighted that the economy continues to grow at a strong pace and the labor market remains solid, but inflation pressures are still present. The Fed also acknowledged increased uncertainty around the economic outlook, but took a less hawkish stance overall, which appears to have boosted broader markets.
The Fed&#8217;s latest economic projections were also a key factor contributing to market movement. GDP growth forecasts for 2025 were revised downward to 1.7%, from an earlier projection of 2.1%. 
At the same time, inflation expectations were raised. The core Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) price index, which excludes volatile food and energy prices, was adjusted up to 2.7% for 2025, from the previous forecast of 2.5%. This shift in projections pointed to rising concerns about stagflation, which occurs when the economy experiences slow growth combined with high inflation.
Despite the inflation concerns, the Fed's outlook also included expectations for two interest rate cuts in both 2025 and 2026. Fed Chair Jerome Powell also downplayed recent surveys that have pointed to rising uncertainty among households and businesses. 
"We think our policy is in a good place," Powell said in a press conference Wednesday.

Shopify To Voluntarily Transfer Its US Stock Exchange Listing To Nasdaq From NYSE

LIDR

Shares of companies in the broader technology sector are trading higher. The sector may be rising amid an overall rebound after investor uncertainty and several risk factors led to markets entering correction territory last week.

ARK Invest CEO Cathie Wood <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs/specialty-etfs/24/06/39294523/cathie-wood-ark-invest-set-new-2-600-price-target-for-tesla-every-car-becomes-an-ai-powered-c">maintains her ambitious $2,600 price target</a> for Tesla (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) by 2029—valuing the company at over $9 trillion—despite the stock&#8217;s near 41% decline since the beginning of the year.
&#8220;It&#8217;s winner take most,&#8221; Wood said of Tesla&#8217;s position in the autonomous vehicle race during <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/audio/2025-03-11/cathie-wood-on-what-s-next-for-ai-tesla-big-tech-tsla?srnd=phx-markets">Bloomberg&#8217;s "Odd Lots" podcast</a>. &#8220;And we do believe that Tesla will be and is in the pole position here in the United States.&#8221;
Wood sees robotaxis as an $8 trillion to $10 trillion opportunity that could transform Tesla from an auto manufacturer to a software company. She predicts autonomous vehicles will boost Tesla&#8217;s gross margins from the current 16% to up to 90%, according to <a href="https://fortune.com/2025/03/04/elon-musk-inventor-of-our-age-doge-distracted-cathie-wood-tesla-stock/">Fortune</a>.

</ul>
Wood's bullish outlook hasn&#8217;t translated into strong performance for her flagship $6 billion ARK Innovation ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKK#NYSE">ARKK</a>), where Tesla <a href="https://www.ark-funds.com/funds/arkk">represents the largest holding at 10.74%</a>. The fund has gained just 2% over the past five years while the S&amp;P 500 has nearly doubled.&nbsp;
ARKK is down more than 16% year-to-date.
However, retail investors added nearly $300 million to ARKK on Monday—its largest single-day inflow in two years, <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-03-11/arkk-fans-plow-300-million-into-battered-etf-despite-big-losses?embedded-checkout=true">according to Bloomberg</a>. It came despite the fund tumbling about 9% that day amid a broader market selloff.
Matt Maley, chief market strategist at Miller Tabak + Co., told Bloomberg that retail investors are buying tech stocks as the sector has taken a beating this year. The &#8220;buy-the-dip&#8221; mentality is strong, according to Bloomberg, particularly among those seeking Tesla exposure.

If They Could Show A Plan For Ending World Hunger He'd Donate $6 Billion – ‘I Will Sell Tesla Stock Right Now And Do It'</a>
Wood called Musk &#8220;the inventor of our age&#8221; and dismissed concerns that his role heading the Department of Government Efficiency would distract from Tesla. &#8220;He&#8217;s surrounded himself by businesspeople and engineers who want to work on the hardest projects in the world,&#8221; she said.
Beyond Tesla, Wood anticipates an &#8220;R&amp;D explosion in health care,&#8221; with CRISPR Therapeutics AG (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRSP#NASDAQ">CRSP</a>) representing <a href="https://www.ark-funds.com/funds/arkk">nearly 6% of ARKK&#8217;s portfolio</a>. She compared President Donald Trump&#8217;s second term to the &#8220;Reagan revolution,&#8221; calling that era &#8220;the heyday, golden age of active management.&#8221;
Despite Monday&#8217;s inflow, ARKK hasn&#8217;t seen a monthly net positive since December 2023, according to Bloomberg.&nbsp;
Bloomberg noted that many of ARKK&#8217;s top holdings from November 2021 remain unchanged, including Tesla, Roku (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ROKU#NASDAQ">ROKU</a>), Coinbase Global (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COIN#NASDAQ">COIN</a>), and Shopify (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SHOP#NYSE">SHOP</a>)—none of which have kept pace with the broader market since then.

Shares of companies within the broader technology sector are trading higher amid a rebound from weakness earlier this week. The sector may be seeing a boost following softer-than-expected February inflation figures.

Under normal circumstances, e-commerce platform Shopify Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SHOP#NYSE">SHOP</a>) would probably be a decisively net bullish idea. Fundamentally, the company has become one of the top avenues for retail transactions, particularly among younger customers. Unfortunately, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/02/43667632/inflation-rises-in-january-housing-costs-up-adding-to-consumers-2025-concerns">consumer spending faces significant challenges</a> in the form of inflation and the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44221690/china-slaps-tariffs-on-us-soybeans-and-agricultural-products-canadas-pm-in-waiting-mark-carney-vows-trade-war-win-against-trump-tesla-falls-over-3-premarket-on-weak-deliveries-brand-concerns-top-headlines-while-the-us-slept">trade war</a>. With these realities in mind, investors may want to rethink the upside narrative of SHOP stock.
Primarily, one of the biggest (if not the biggest) headwind slamming against Shopify is the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/content/44139359/consumer-spending-is-slowing-but-these-stocks-will-still-thrive">erosion of consumer spending</a>. After nearly a two-year period, the U.S. economy posted a contraction in the consumer spending rate for the first time. Inherently, this datapoint impacts the cyclical retail sector, which in turn clouds Shopify's core business.
Investors seeking relief have realized that they probably can't rely on the Trump administration, at least for near-term solutions. Earlier on Tuesday, President Donald Trump announced plans to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/03/44253100/trump-slaps-50-tariff-on-canadian-steel-aluminum-threatens-auto-industry">impose an additional 25% tariff</a> on steel and aluminum imports from Canada, driving up the total levy to 50%.
It's not so much that the tariffs directly impact SHOP stock. Rather, it's that the White House appears willing to engage in an economic stare down, irrespective of certain consequences.
Nevertheless, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/02/43748849/food-prices-are-expected-to-keep-rising-in-2025-ramsey-solutions-explains-why-grocery-prices-are-so-high-offers-tips-for-saving">not everything centers on the tariffs</a>. Households who have been struggling with high grocery bills can point the finger to a bird flu outbreak, extreme weather events and labor shortages. With these headwinds, some experts believe food prices will continue rising. If so, this dynamic will likely crimp discretionary spending further, thus weighing on SHOP stock.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Dip-Buying Sentiment Has Its Limits for SHOP Stock</h2>
Despite the troubles impacting Shopify's revenue streams, the market's discount certainly appears tempting. On a year-to-date basis, SHOP stock is down about 13.5%. In the trailing month, it has slipped roughly 26%. Nevertheless, investors historically have had a nuanced approach to dip-buying sentiments.
As a baseline, it's fair to say that SHOP stock enjoys an upward bias. Using pricing data since January 2019, any given eight-week long position has a 58.86% chance of being profitable. During this period, the median positive return clocks in at 20.22% while the median negative return lands at 10.79%. Assuming a starting price of $92, the projected range over eight weeks would be $82.08 to around $110.61.
When SHOP stock incurs sizable volatility up to 10% over a one-week period, there is evidence that investors buy such dips. Combined with the fundamentals of a normal economic cycle — that is, without trade wars, rising food inflation and other negative catalysts — SHOP would likely be a strong bullish candidate.
That's not what's happening here. Last week, SHOP stock lost 11.3% of equity value. Under this dynamic condition where SHOP loses between 10% and 20% in a one-week period, the risk-reward worsens considerably.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="576" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/11143355/SHOP-stock-probability-gambit-1024x576.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-819358" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/11143355/SHOP-stock-probability-gambit-1024x576.jpg 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/11143355/SHOP-stock-probability-gambit-300x169.jpg 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/11143355/SHOP-stock-probability-gambit-768x432.jpg 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/11143355/SHOP-stock-probability-gambit.jpg 1280w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Image by author</figcaption></figure>
Over an eight-week period, the chances of a long position being profitable following the aforementioned extreme-fear event is only 35.29%. Interestingly, the median positive return during this period is similar to the baseline at 25.72%. However, the median negative return falls to 23.8%.
In other words, from a statistical standpoint, uncertainty rises following extreme volatility, expanding the range of likely price outcomes. In addition, it's far less probable for the bulls to win out in the near term.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Two Trades on Tap for Shopify</h2>
Understanding the possibility of both an expanded price range and bearish activity, traders have two main approaches available with SHOP stock. First, they can buy a long iron condor, which anticipates rising volatility over time.
Specifically, the most aggressive long iron condor is the 75P &#x7C; 80P &#x7C;&#x7C; 95C &#x7C; 100C — or the combination of the 70/75 bear put spread and 95/100 bull call spread — for the options chain expiring April 17. Based on similar circumstances, SHOP stock could drop to either $72.47 or rise to $101.18, enough to trigger either short strike price ($75 or $100) at expiration. This would allow the speculator to collect the maximum reward.
However, one of the long iron condor's disadvantages is the expense: the trader is paying for two premiums. Instead, the most aggressive traders could choose to go directional with just a bear put spread.
For the same April 17 expiration date, a tempting trade would be the 90/85 bear put spread. This transaction involves buying the $90 put (at a $615 ask) and simultaneously selling the $85 put (at a $400 bid).
The proceeds from the short put partially offsets the debit paid for the long put, resulting in a cash outlay of $215. Should SHOP stock fall to or below the $85 short put strike at expiration, the trader can collect the maximum reward of $285, or a payout of about 132.6%.
