Lags Uber while Lyft has fallen off. The stock has based around $10 for the past 1.5 years. The company needs to do something: innovate, change CEO. Maybe you can trade this trading range. Otherwise, you need to see a breakout.

Uber vs. Lyft Uber has rebounded from its bottom in late-June and has left behind Lyft. Lyft is down 77% in the past year and Uber 42%. Uber is winning in truck brokerage and food delivery businesses, not just ride sharing. Both reported solid sales in early May, but guidance was dour. Lyft reported driver shortages, but oddly enough Uber said it had no such shortages. A private email by Uber's CEO said it would pivot to become a cash machine. Lyft said this a month later. 29 In August, Uber reported a solid beat. So did Lyft, but its free cash flow came in negative and guidance was mixed. So, shares continued to diverge. Uber can execute and has the right strategy. Also, it's taking more market share. A UBS survey says that drivers prefer Uber, hands down.

TOP PICK
Lyft

Lyft has consistently made up 30% of the U.S. ride-sharing market. Its Q2, released on August 4, boasted an earnings beat with adjusted EPS at $0.13 (on revenue of $991 million) vs. the street's -$0.04 (on revenues of $989 million). Lyft noted that ridership grew 16% over the past year to 19.9 million, the highest level since the pandemic began. Hand-in-hand with that was the number of active drivers also hit a post-Covid high. The company projects Q3 revenues at $1.04-1.06 billion (all figures here in USD).

BUY

As a 5-year hold Yes, because it's a global leader in ride shares. Its compound annual growth rate is probably 25% over the next 5 years. It's doesn't matter if it's down 80% from its highs. Lyft is well-positioned for the future. They're freezing hiring (though still want drivers) for the rest of the year. This doesn't change demand for rides. He added to his holdings today. We've started to see more drivers and rates declining.

Lyft
Allan Tong’s Discover Picks Ride-sharing remains unprofitable. Lyft's PE is -11.3x and its profit margin stands at -43.05% despite gross margins of almost 33%. Also, Lyft—like so many tech stocks—doesn't pay a dividend. However, Lyft has navigated the bumpy road of recovery well. It has beaten its last four quarters by wide margins, and Wall Street expects 68% upside in the stock to $71.38. Consider this a spec buy, but a risk worth taking if you are patient in 2022.

No one is worried about megacap tech stocks and that's a worry. Snap, Twitter and Pinterest, also Lyft have slid around 25% from their highs, and these are buying opportunities in the coming months.

Market outlook for the rest of 2021 Zoom may have capitualated today as sellers are exhausted. Maybe it's time to look at them, as well as Lyft and Twitter. Lyft is a much better company than Uber. Also, resources stocks had a huge run, then sold off, well Alcoa can rally into year's end.

Lyft

It's handling this choppy reopening (i.e. driver shortage) better than Uber. On Friday, a California court just struck down the appeal which states that drivers are freelancers (they are employees, says the judge), so the cost of rides in CA will soar. Despite that, Lyft rebounded today 3% though down more than 15% so far this year. He thinks the stock has bottomed.
