Stephen Weiss, Founder, Short Hills Capital Partners Uber UBER-N PARTIAL SELL Mar 03, 2025

Hit all its numbers. Q4 was a modest beat. 21x PE for 2026, growing at 28%. One of the best techy names out there, and the aggregator of all the autonomous vehicles in the system. He'd look to buy more.

Revenues are up $6.8 billion in a strong quarter. Gross bookings were up and are converting cash flow. He remains bullish.

Valuation keeps him out. Some plays you just miss. Amazed by how well it's navigated competition and expanding delivery services. Management's done an outstanding job. 

Sitting now atop its 50- and 200-day moving averages and finding support.

Is held back by a misconception that ride-sharing and autonomous driving will dislocate Uber. Wrong. Uber already partners with Waymo, so will participate in that. Uber is undervalued.

Has grown cashflows, very encouraging. Taking share from LYFT. Over several years stock's been volatile, but hasn't done that much due to looming robotaxis and autonomous vehicles. If that picks up steam, competitive dynamics change; UBER would move from handling both supply and demand, to being just one of many suppliers chasing demand.

Multiple's come down, showing good fundamentals. Watch the space. Waymo has no experience in the space, whereas Uber's really well positioned. That partnership will work well at first, but it's the future he's concerned about.

Tesla's reputation has taken a hit this year due to Musk's highly polarizing involvement with Trump. This has taken the robotaxi story off the table, allowing Uber to roar. But robotaxis were never a threat to Uber in the first place.

Like Tesla, they need to get to self-driving cars and to be the first there. It's anyone's guess if they do. It's okay to hold a small amount, but not a lot.

Rough ride along with the market. Good component of a portfolio, given all the tariff situations. Part of the issue is that the market incorrectly looks at autonomous driving as having one winner and the rest losers. See his blog at goodreid.com under Insights.
