Shopify Inc. (NASDAQ:SHOP) is one of the best foreign stocks to buy right now. On February 12, Benchmark reaffirmed its Buy rating on Shopify (NASDAQ: SHOP) with a $145 price target, highlighting the company’s focus on reinvesting in its commerce platform rather than maximizing near‑term free cash flow.
Despite market pressure, Shopify has delivered 30% revenue growth over the past year, which Benchmark views as evidence of strong execution and long‑term positioning in global commerce. The target is based on a discounted cash flow analysis.
On the same day, February 12, Citizens analyst Andrew Boone lowered the price target on Shopify to $160 from $200 while maintaining a Market Outperform rating. According to Boone, Shopify reported robust Q4 2025 results. The company’s gross merchandise volume (GMV) grew 29% year over year, and this is excluding foreign exchange effects.
Nonetheless, the GMV recorded a 1% slowdown from the third quarter. GMV beat consensus estimates by 2%. Shopify’s GAAP operating margin hit 17.2%, up 70 basis points from the prior year, which Boone commented shows Shopify’s skill in boosting growth while improving profits.
Boone noted that Shopify’s results highlight its growing global reach, with nearly half of Q4’s incremental GMV and merchant base now outside North America. He called Shopify “the de facto platform for starting an eCommerce business,” noting continued progress in enterprise, B2B, and offline segments.
