A hotter-than-expected jobs report spurred a premarket rally on Wall Street Friday, showcasing the U.S. economy&#8217;s resilience and easing concerns <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/10/41184080/us-economy-adds-254-000-new-jobs-in-september-smashes-expectations-unemployment-f">over an economic slowdown. </a>
The strong labor data also led traders to rethink the Federal Reserve&#8217;s aggressive rate cuts, resulting in a jump in the dollar and Treasury yields.
What Happened: The U.S. economy added 254,000 jobs in September, far exceeding the expected 140,000. This marks an acceleration from August&#8217;s 159,000 figure and well above the 12-month average of 230,000. Payrolls for both July and August were upwardly revised by 55,000 and 17,000, respectively.
Private sector payrolls accounted for 223,000 jobs, while the government added 31,000. The unemployment rate fell unexpectedly by 0.1% to 4.1%, beating the forecasted 4.2%.
Wages grew by 0.4% in September, surpassing the expected 0.3%. 
Why It Matters: The stronger-than-expected pace of job addition, coupled with a surprisingly lower unemployment rate and higher wage growth, signals a strong consumer spending outlook, which could lift corporate earnings, particularly as we head into the fourth quarter.
Yet the labor market&#8217;s strength also complicates the Federal Reserve&#8217;s efforts to curb inflation. Higher wages could stoke consumer demand, putting upward pressure on prices, potentially slowing disinflation efforts. This may lead the Fed to delay or scale back anticipated interest rate cuts.
Before the jobs report, the market had priced in a 30% chance of a 50-basis-point rate cut in November, according to the CME FedWatch Tool. Following the data release, those odds plummeted to 11%.

Shopify (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/shop#NYSE">SHOP</a>) is one of the stocks most watched by Zacks.com visitors lately. So, it might be a good idea to review some of the factors that might affect the near-term performance of the stock.
Over the past month, shares of this cloud-based commerce company have returned +6.9%, compared to the Zacks S&amp;P 500 composite&#39;s +2.1% change. During this period, the Zacks Internet - Services industry, which Shopify falls in, has gained 0.2%. The key question now is: What could be the stock&#39;s future direction?
While media releases or rumors about a substantial change in a company&#39;s business prospects usually make its stock &#39;trending&#39; and lead to an immediate price change, there are always some fundamental facts that eventually dominate the buy-and-hold decision-making.
<h3>Revisions To Earnings Estimates</h3>
Rather than focusing on anything else, we at Zacks prioritize evaluating the change in a company&#39;s earnings projection. This is because we believe the fair value for its stock is determined by the present value of its future stream of earnings.
We essentially look at how sell-side analysts covering the stock are revising their earnings estimates to reflect the impact of the latest business trends. And if earnings estimates go up for a company, the fair value for its stock goes up. A higher fair value than the current market price drives investors&#39; interest in buying the stock, leading to its price moving higher. This is why empirical research shows a strong correlation between trends in earnings estimate revisions and near-term stock price movements.
Shopify is expected to post earnings of $0.27 per share for the current quarter, representing a year-over-year change of +12.5%. Over the last 30 days, the Zacks Consensus Estimate remained unchanged.
The consensus earnings estimate of $1.12 for the current fiscal year indicates a year-over-year change of +51.4%. This estimate has remained unchanged over the last 30 days.
For the next fiscal year, the consensus earnings estimate of $1.32 indicates a change of +18.5% from what Shopify is expected to report a year ago. Over the past month, the estimate has remained unchanged.
With an impressive <a href="https://www.zacks.com/performance_disclosure" target="_blank">externally audited track record</a>, our proprietary stock rating tool -- the Zacks Rank -- is a more conclusive indicator of a stock&#39;s near-term price performance, as it effectively harnesses the power of earnings estimate revisions. The size of the recent change in the consensus estimate, along with three other <a href="https://www.zacks.com/education/stock-education/zacks-rank-guide-9" target="_blank">factors related to earnings estimates</a>, has resulted in a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) for Shopify.
<h3>Projected Revenue Growth</h3>
While earnings growth is arguably the most superior indicator of a company&#39;s financial health, nothing happens as such if a business isn&#39;t able to grow its revenues. After all, it&#39;s nearly impossible for a company to increase its earnings for an extended period without increasing its revenues. So, it&#39;s important to know a company&#39;s potential revenue growth.
For Shopify, the consensus sales estimate for the current quarter of $2.11 billion indicates a year-over-year change of +22.9%. For the current and next fiscal years, $8.62 billion and $10.31 billion estimates indicate +22.2% and +19.6% changes, respectively.
<h3>Last Reported Results And Surprise History</h3>
Shopify reported revenues of $2.05 billion in the last reported quarter, representing a year-over-year change of +20.7%. EPS of $0.26 for the same period compares with $0.14 a year ago.
Compared to the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $2 billion, the reported revenues represent a surprise of +2.03%. The EPS surprise was +30%.
The company beat consensus EPS estimates in each of the trailing four quarters. The company topped consensus revenue estimates each time over this period.
<h3>Valuation</h3>
No investment decision can be efficient without considering a stock&#39;s valuation. Whether a stock&#39;s current price rightly reflects the intrinsic value of the underlying business and the company&#39;s growth prospects is an essential determinant of its future price performance.
While comparing the current values of a company&#39;s valuation multiples, such as price-to-earnings (P/E), price-to-sales (P/S) and price-to-cash flow (P/CF), with its own historical values helps determine whether its stock is fairly valued, overvalued, or undervalued, comparing the company relative to its peers on these parameters gives a good sense of the reasonability of the stock&#39;s price.
As part of the Zacks Style Scores system, the Zacks Value Style Score (which evaluates both traditional and unconventional valuation metrics) organizes stocks into five groups ranging from A to F (A is better than B; B is better than C; and so on), making it helpful in identifying whether a stock is overvalued, rightly valued, or temporarily undervalued.
Shopify is graded D on this front, indicating that it is trading at a premium to its peers. <a href="https://www.zacks.com/stock/research/SHOP/stock-style-scores" target="_blank">Click here </a> to see the values of some of the valuation metrics that have driven this grade.
<h3>Conclusion</h3>
The facts discussed here and much other information on Zacks.com might help determine whether or not it&#39;s worthwhile paying attention to the market buzz about Shopify. However, its Zacks Rank #3 does suggest that it may perform in line with the broader market in the near term.
<a href="https://www.zacks.com/stock/news/2343220/shopify-inc-shop-is-attracting-investor-attention-here-is-what-you-should-know?cid=CS-BENZ-FT-tale_of_the_tape|most_searched_stocks-2343220">To read this article on Zacks.com click here.</a>

Shopify Inc. Is Attracting Investor Attention: Here Is What You Should Know

E-commerce giant Shopify&nbsp;Inc. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/shop#NYSE">SHOP</a>)&nbsp;is one of&nbsp;those tech stocks&nbsp;still very much trading in the shadow of its COVID-era highs. Its story is one of an eye-watering rally and a painful, nearly 90% crash from which it&#39;s&nbsp;still recovering.&nbsp;
However, that&#39;s the story when you look at the stock&#39;s history over the past five years. But zooming in on their more recent performance and future prospects, the story is very different. The optimist would say they&#39;ve rallied more than 200% from 2022&#39;s low and have jumped 55% since the start of last month.&nbsp;
As investors start to review their portfolios for the final quarter of the year in light of the Fed&#39;s rate cut last night, and look to get ready for 2025, they could do a lot worse than consider Shopify.&nbsp;
<h2>Bullish Outlook: Redburn Sees Big Upside for Shopify</h2>
Earlier this week, the team over at Redburn Atlantic upgraded their rating on the stock to Buy, along with a price target of $99. Considering Shopify shares finished trading last night around $75, that&#39;s pointing to a targeted upside of more than 30%.
The basis for the Redburn team&#39;s bullishness is what they called Shopify&#39;s &quot;industry-leading innovation, it&#39;s social media integrations and user-friendly platform.&quot; Having already delivered a solid earnings report in August, more on that below, Redburn sees potential for them to grow their EBIT margin by 40% by 2026.&nbsp;
It&#39;s an impressively bullish stance to be taking, especially as the stock was struggling for the first half of the year. It hit a post-crash high in February before trending down all the way into August. Considering the benchmark S&amp;P 500 index was powering to multiple all-time highs during the same period, you can get a sense of how lackluster Shopify&#39;s first half to the year was.&nbsp;
<h2>Shopify&#39;s Strong Q2 Earnings Confirm Recovery Rally</h2>
However, a rockstar report for its Q2 earnings put paid to any doubts that the recovery rally was over and, if anything, confirmed it&#39;s still very much intact. The company smashed expectations for both headline numbers, with its EPS coming in 30% higher than the consensus and revenue showing year-over-year growth of more than 20%. These beats were driven primarily by strong growth in its Merchant Solutions segment, whose revenue jumped 19% on the year, suggesting solid demand among Shopify&#39;s customer base.
As Harley Finkelstein, President of Shopify, summed up with the report, &quot;our Q2 results make it clear Shopify is rapidly strengthening its position as a leading enabler of global commerce and entrepreneurship&quot;. It&#39;s hard to argue with that, and the near 60% rally from their pre-earnings price speaks for itself.&nbsp;
<h2>Shopify&#39;s Momentum Offers Investors a Chance to Get Involved</h2>
Investors thinking about getting involved should watch for the stock to break above the $77 level where it was held last month and which is right around where it was trading yesterday. A firm break above that would confirm the little dip earlier this month was nothing more than a healthy dip that proved the bears can&#39;t take the stock much lower right now.&nbsp;
If anything, it helped cool the stock&#39;s relative strength index (RSI), which, at 70, was starting to veer into extremely overbought conditions. Shopify&#39;s RSI dipped all the way down to the low 40s and is only now crossing back into the 60s. This suggests there&#39;s a ton of further room to the upside for the stock to rally.&nbsp;
While Shopify has a long way to go to get back to its all-time highs from 2021, it&#39;s making progress, which is a lot more than many of its high-flying peers from the same era can say. February&#39;s high of around $90 is the next big target for this uptrend, and based on the company&#39;s current fundamental performance and analyst expectations, it should have no problem getting up there in the coming weeks.

Shares of companies within the broader technology sector are trading higher amid overall market strength following Wednesday's Fed rate cut.

Roku Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ROKU#NASDAQ">ROKU</a>) is gearing up for a platform monetization sprint, and investors are starting to tune in. After a strong showing at the JPMorgan U.S. All Stars Conference in London, Roku's management has made one thing crystal clear: it's all about accelerating <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/ROKU/news">platform revenue growth</a>.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Shopify Integration Boosts Roku Ads Manager</h2>
Roku has <a href="https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20240918031574/en/Roku-Launches-Ads-Manager-a-Self-Service-Performance-Solution-for-Growth-Marketers">launched</a> Roku Ads Manager, a self-service CTV performance solution featuring the first-ever Shopify Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SHOP#NYSE">SHOP</a>) integration for shoppable campaigns. This new platform is designed to help direct-to-consumer brands of all sizes easily purchase CTV video ads, offering a familiar buying experience similar to search and social. 
Louqman Parampath, Roku's VP of Product Management, emphasized the platform's advantage: "Roku Ads Manager is uniquely positioned to offer data, optimization, and ad formats that no other CTV self-serve solution has." The integration with Shopify enhances reach for merchants, creating a new sales channel with shoppable ads.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Roku Management Doubling Down On Partnerships</h2>
With management doubling down on third-party partnerships and home screen changes, the streaming giant is eyeing a revenue boost that could turn heads as early as the fourth quarter of 2025. Partnerships with The Trade Desk Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TTD#NASDAQ">TTD</a>) are also nearing completion, positioning Roku for potential ad revenue growth.

While Roku's CFO Dan Jedda and IR head Conrad Grodd laid out the company's priorities, the spotlight was on how Roku plans to balance revenue expansion with profitability. With platform growth initiatives set to be funded by reallocating existing operational expenses (nearly $2 billion in 2024), Roku is aiming to keep its spending lean.
This belt-tightening has led JPMorgan's Cory Carpenter to raise his price target on Roku from $80 to $90, citing increased confidence in the company's ability to grow earnings without breaking the bank.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Needham&#8217;s $100 Price Target Adds More Fuel To The Fire</h2>
Adding to the optimism, Needham has upgraded Roku&#8217;s price target to $100, reiterating their Buy rating. Analyst Laura Martin emphasized Roku&#8217;s strong strategic position in the U.S. over-the-top (OTT) and connected-TV (CTV) ecosystems.
With Roku devices now in 50% of U.S. broadband homes, the company is the largest streaming distribution platform, making it highly attractive to advertisers.
According to Needham, Roku benefits from a total addressable market (TAM) of around $62 billion in traditional linear TV advertising revenue for 2023. Roku's impressive cost control and tactical moves to become an &#8220;arms dealer&#8221; of streaming—similar to how Apple's iOS platform operates—reinforce Needham's bullish outlook. 
This potential, combined with its large CTV ad inventory and projected industry growth of 15-17% in 2024, paints a picture of significant valuation upside.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Technicals Point To A Strong Bullish Run—For Now</h2>
On the technical front, Roku is flashing bullish signals, with its stock price of $74.67 above key moving averages.

However, some selling pressure indicates a possible risk of bearish movement in the near future, so cautious optimism might be the best approach.

Shopify Unusual Options Activity For September 16

PayPal Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PYPL#NASDAQ">PYPL</a>)<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40781082/whats-going-on-with-paypal-stock"> is a buy</a>, according to CNBC's Jim Cramer. 
On Monday, PayPal disclosed an expansion of its strategic partnership with Shopify Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SHOP#NYSE">SHOP</a>) in the U.S. 
Per the deal, PayPal will become an additional credit and debit card processor for Shopify Payments through its PayPal Complete Payments solution, providing flexible and advanced developer tools for marketplaces and platforms.
Cramer, on the latest &#8220;Mad Money Lightning Round,&#8221; said Rivian (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIVN#NASDAQ">RIVN</a>) has &#8220;got the money to be able to make it. That doesn't mean that the stock is a buy, it does mean they're going to make it. So, I would say you've got to let it percolate. But it's not anytime soon.&#8221;
The recent $5 billion deal between Volkswagen (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VWAGY#OTC">VWAGY</a>) and U.S. electric vehicle start-up Rivian Automotive has reportedly stirred up discontent among employees at the German automaker's software division Cariad.
&#8220;I think you're fine,&#8221; Cramer said when asked about The Southern Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SO#NYSE">SO</a>). &#8220;Let's say it's a baby growth story.&#8221;
On Aug. 29, Bank of America Securities analyst Julien Dumoulin-Smith maintained Southern with a Neutral and raised the price target from $86 to $87.
The Mad Money host said he is concerned about CVS Health Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CVS#NYSE">CVS</a>). &#8220;Let's just keep it on ice for the moment,&#8221; he added.
On Sept. 10, Cantor Fitzgerald analyst Sarah James reiterated CVS Health with a Neutral and maintained a $62 price target.
The Home Depot, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HD#NYSE">HD</a>) is &#8220;good,&#8221; Cramer said.
On Aug. 13, HD reported second-quarter 2024 sales growth of 0.6% year-over-year to $43.175 billion, marginally missing the consensus estimate of $43.376 billion. Adjusted EPS was $4.67 (-0.2% year over year), beating the consensus of $4.50.
Cramer said he doesn't have anything to say about Palantir Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NYSE">PLTR</a>), adding that it is a &#8220;cold stock.&#8221;
On Sept. 6, S&amp;P Dow Jones Indices announced that Palantir Technologies will be added to the S&amp;P 500 Index, effective prior to the start of trading on Sept. 23.
Cramer said he is a buyer of Energy Transfer LP (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ET#NYSE">ET</a>).
On Aug. 9, Energy Transfer announced a secondary public offering of 38,755,996 of its common units.
