Gawrelski expects Uber to benefit from high mobility booking volumes, particularly in the second half of the year. Also, he believes Uber can maintain steady demand for rides by offering more affordable options and growing its presence in less dense regions.

He also noted that while Uber Eats faces slight softness in daily active users, Uber’s broader focus on growth initiatives should drive top-line growth.

Strategic Expansion Fuels Uber’s Rise

UBER stock has gained over 48% over the past three months, driven by robust earnings and a growing delivery footprint.

In recent strategic moves, Uber has expanded its grocery delivery service, adding regional supermarket chains like Big Y and King Kullen to its platform. This taps into rising demand for convenience and positions Uber as a key player in the delivery space.

Moreover, Uber launched self-driving rides in Atlanta through its partnership with Waymo, marking its second major autonomous market after Austin. This rollout reflects Uber’s commitment to autonomous mobility, while Waymo continues to scale its fleet and expand into new cities.

Is UBER Stock a Buy?

Turning to Wall Street, UBER stock has a Strong Buy consensus rating based on 30 Buys and four Holds assigned in the last three months. At $99.81, the average Uber price target implies a 3.24% upside potential.
