Context and risks
The rise in interest rates (10-year Treasury at 5.17%) affects DoorDash due to its high PER (101.24) and growth model, but the company has net cash, mitigating financing risk. Exposure to delivery automation is a long-term business model risk.

Verdict: Hold; growth justifies part of the multiple, but valuation and operating margin limit the appeal at these prices.
Main risk: The extreme valuation (PER 101.24) leaves little room for error: any growth slowdown or rate increase could significantly compress the multiple.
