Keywords: investor day expectation gap, Uber reducing holdings, high interest rates

1. On September 23, during its investor day, the company stated its goal to operate over 30,000 autonomous trucks and generate revenue above $5 billion by 2030. However, by the end of 2026, it only plans to reach around 200 trucks. The timeline for achieving commercial scale and revenue is lengthy and does not meet market expectations for near-term growth.

2. On September 23, Uber sold a large portion of its Aurora holdings, increasing the supply pressure on the stock.

3. On September 23, the U.S. September composite PMI preliminary reading rose to 58.4, driving U.S. Treasury yields higher and putting pressure on valuations of highly valued, yet-to-be-profitable growth stocks.

4. On June 30, the company’s sales and administrative expenses in the second fiscal quarter of 2026 increased by 39% year-on-year to $50 million. Changes in the fair value of derivative liabilities generated $16 million in expenses; operating losses and cash burn remain at elevated levels.
