RE:DumbThe technology company, which offers tools and services for businesses to set up their online stores, said it expects revenue growth in the high-teen percentages, while analysts had forecast a rise of nearly 20%, according to Refinitiv data. The above is why Shopify stock is retreating 7% in after hours trading. Its annoying because Shopifys forward guidance on future earnings is just an estimate, and is very close to the estimate of analysts (who are often wrong anyways). Their forward earnings indicates that they believe upcoming earnings will continue to impress. Investors selling off this stock for such a petty reason have no conviction whatsoever.
