Why consensus could be wrong
The consensus may underestimate Uber's ability to leverage its delivery services for revenue growth, especially as consumer demand shifts post-pandemic.
Supporting evidence
Recent trends in consumer spending indicate a potential uptick in ride-hailing and delivery services.
The options market is pricing a larger move than historical averages, suggesting heightened volatility that may not align with consensus expectations.
