Uber Performed Better When Market Is In Equilibrium, Analyst Says While Expecting Upside To More Than Double

  • Needham analyst Bernie McTernan reiterated Buy on Uber Technologies, Inc (NYSE: UBER) with a $54 price target.

  • In his 18th Mobility Tracker, he performed a deep dive on pricing.

  • His study showed that UBER tends to serve better relatively when the market is closer to equilibrium.

  • Uber's trend could support future performance, assuming the broader supply and demand dynamics continue to improve.

  • During the most recent two-week period, pricing was largely stable, and wait times were slightly worse, driven by a modest mean reversion by Lyft, Inc (NASDAQ: LYFT) following the significant gains during the prior two weeks.

  • McTernan observed wait times remain towards the lower end over the past 15 months while pricing is elevated.

  • Price Action: UBER shares traded lower by 1.34% at $28.37 on the last check Monday.

  • Why Biden’s 4% buyback tax could boost stock prices and dividends

    The Biden administration’s new stock buyback tax will have little impact on the overall stock market. This tax has set off alarm bells in some corners of Wall Street, on the theory that buybacks were one of the biggest props supporting the past decade’s bull market — and anything weakening that prop could lead to much lower prices. One reason is that the new excise tax — whether 1% or 4% — is applied to net buybacks — repurchases in excess of how many shares the corporation may have issued.

Observing the sharp and abrupt shift in sentiment, BlackRock's bond chief Rick Rieder has called the surge "extraordinary."

    SINGAPORE (Reuters) -Following are reactions from analysts and investors to U.S. President Joe Biden's State of the Union speech on Tuesday, in which he challenged Republicans to lift the debt ceiling and support tax policies that are friendlier to middle class Americans. In his first address to a joint session of Congress since Republicans took control of the House of Representatives in January, Biden hammered corporations for profiteering from the pandemic, and ran through a wish list of economic proposals, such as a minimum tax for billionaires, and a quadrupling of the tax on corporate stock buybacks.

According to Emmanuel Cau, the head of European equity strategy at Barclays, we might not be fully out of the woods yet. "Despite a still sticky labor market, softening US data (ISM down further below 50, weaker housing data) seem to matter for central banks' reaction function, which now appears more balanced between fighting inflation and preserving

    The fate of an early year rally in stocks may depend on whether equities can withstand a recent rise in U.S. Treasury yields, as investors increasingly come around to the Federal Reserve’s higher-for-longer mantra on interest rates. Comments from Fed Chairman Jerome Powell on Tuesday did little to dissuade markets from the notion that the central bank will raise rates higher than investors had previously priced in and keep them elevated for longer, as he said rates may need to move higher than expected if economic strength threatens the Fed's progress in lowering inflation.
