Uber (UBER) Valuation Check as New Robotaxi Launches and Delivery Expansion Signal Next Growth Phase

Uber Technologies (UBER) just flipped the switch on commercial robotaxi rides in Dubai and Dallas, pairing autonomous launches with fresh retail delivery partnerships, a mix that could quietly reshape how investors think about its growth runway.

See our latest analysis for Uber Technologies.

All of this is landing just as sentiment around Uber has cooled in the near term, with a 30 day share price return of negative 10.65% and a 90 day share price return of negative 11.93%. Its 12 month total shareholder return of 34.13% and three year total shareholder return of 227.96% still point to powerful long term momentum.

If these robotaxi and delivery moves have you thinking about what else could surprise the market, it is worth exploring high growth tech and AI stocks for more potential high growth beneficiaries of the same themes.

With the stock still trading roughly 37% below the average Wall Street price target and a hefty implied intrinsic discount, are investors overlooking Uber’s next growth leg, or is the market already factoring in those future gains?
