Uber Bet, Howard Marks Wisdom & $268 in Dividends
Published about 11 hours ago • 3 min read
Here's your weekly helping of interesting investing information and insights.
Uber Technologies (UBER) stock dropped 12% on fears about self-driving cars from Waymo, owned by Alphapet (GOOGL) and Tesla (TSLA), but this analyst (and myself) think the market is overreacting and sees Uber rising 40% to $110 per share by 2026.
Uber is partnering with multiple robotaxi companies instead of competing against them, while also growing its food delivery business and using AI to show better ads—making money in ways many investors are overlooking.

I caught this interview on Nexstar Media (NXST) owned WGN radio with a great charity called Bricks of Hope. Their mission is to create play and inspire imagination in sick kids by delivering LEGO® to them during their hospital stays. On a side note, one of the best feelings I get is from receiving dividends and compounding our money. But there is literally no better feeling than giving away some of that money to those who find themselves in tough situations. Cheers!

5 Uber Technologies (UBER) | $79.50 - Uber has been on my radar and I've been waiting to start a position under $80. This is an exploratory position, as I feel WAY more compelled to dive deeper and build (or lose) conviction when I have real money in a company. It's a company I personally use and find it interesting how they're trying to automate ride-sharing and also enter the local trucking industry.
