Uber (UBER-N) has garnered a generally positive outlook among experts, with many citing its dominant position in the ride-sharing market and expanding business in food delivery. Analysts highlight the company's growth in cash flow and user sign-ups, as well as its partnerships with multiple autonomous vehicle startups, suggesting a promising future for self-driving technology. While concerns about competition from companies like Waymo and Tesla persist, Uber's strong fundamentals and ongoing strategies to adapt seem to mitigate these worries. Some reviews express skepticism regarding ethical concerns for drivers and the ultimate profitability of autonomous vehicles, but overall, many experts consider Uber a long-term investment with significant potential for cash flow growth and profitability.
For the long term The big money has already been made here by private equity investors. But Uber is still growing as a duopoly (with Lyft). It's breaking even on an EBITDA basis and not losing money as some think, but Uber Eats is losing money. Uber enjoyed double-digit growth before the virus, and will likely return to that, but earnings may be weak short term. That said, you will come out ahead for the long term. Uber doesn't spend money on cars, but rather marketing. The scalability also makes this attractive. This will grow, but not as much as in the past.
