Core Viewpoint - Uber Technologies and DoorDash are the leading players in the U.S. food delivery market, with DoorDash holding a significant market share, but Uber's diversified revenue streams and growth potential in ridesharing and autonomous driving present compelling investment opportunities [1][2]. Company Analysis Uber Technologies - Uber's revenue in 2024 reached $44 billion, growing by 18% year-over-year, with ridesharing accounting for 57% of its revenue and holding a 76% market share compared to Lyft's 24% [5][3]. - The company is exploring autonomous driving through partnerships with Waymo and GM's Cruise, which could enhance its value proposition [4]. - Uber's operating income increased from $1.1 billion in 2023 to $2.8 billion in 2024, and its forward P/E ratio of 22 suggests it is undervalued, making it an attractive buy [5][10].
