Uber Stock Outlook for 2026: Baidu Robotaxi Trials, Profit Momentum, and Why UBER Shares Look “Historically Cheap”

Dec. 22, 2025 — Uber Technologies (NYSE: UBER) is ending the year with a familiar investor paradox: the business looks stronger on many core metrics, yet the stock has been trading like a company facing an “existential” technology threat. The latest catalyst arrived Monday with a headline that lands directly in the center of that debate—Uber and Lyft said they will work with China’s Baidu to launch driverless taxi trials in the U.K. in 2026, adding another major autonomy partner to Uber’s growing robotaxi web. Reuters As of Monday afternoon, Uber shares were around $82, up roughly 3% on the

In premarket trading Monday, TSLA rose about 1.4% to roughly $488 after news that the Delaware Supreme Court restored Musk’s 2018 pay package.

Published: December 21, 2025 — Uber Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: UBER) heads into a holiday-shortened trading week with its stock hovering near the psychologically important $80 level, after a volatile December that has forced investors to weigh two powerful (and competing) narratives: a fresh burst of regulatory and legal pressure tied to Uber One, and a widening set of moves positioning Uber as a key “aggregator” in the emerging autonomous mobility ecosystem.

Uber Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: UBER) heads into the end of the week with its stock trading around $79 per share on Friday, December 19, 2025, down about 1% on the day—a reminder that even after a strong year, sentiment can turn quickly when investors are weighing disruptive technology and regulatory risk at the same time.

Lyft Stock (LYFT) Slides After Wedbush Downgrade: Autonomous Vehicle Risk, Analyst Price Targets, and 2026 Catalysts

Lyft, Inc. (NASDAQ: LYFT) stock moved sharply lower on Friday, December 19, 2025, as investors weighed a fresh analyst downgrade tied to the fast-approaching “robotaxi era.” By late trading, Lyft shares were around $19.17, down about 3.5% on the day, after trading between $18.76 and $19.96 with roughly 8.0 million shares changing hands. The day’s catalyst was clear: Wedbush cut Lyft to “Underperform” from “Neutral” and lowered its price target to $16 from $20, arguing that Lyft is especially exposed to long-term disruption from autonomous vehicles (AVs) given its concentration in U.S. ridesharing and a comparatively narrow product mix.
