It's similar to Tesla in this regard--a decade of losses from 2010-2020 and then -boom--huge cashflow once the infrastructure outlay and customer base acquisition pays off. 'Smart money' was right all along to keep buying the dips. Uber is a play on not only on transportation, but also Ai, logistics, delivery, etc. It's like Amazon in this regard.

Uber is just an app. Many Uber drivers have both Uber and Lyft open at the same time and choose the best one.

All it takes is a new app to offer better commissions for drivers and riders. I am not so sure that Uber has a very sticky customer base

I'm also not convinced uber eats will ever make money.
