Highlights

Uber is expanding into premium chauffeur and autonomous vehicle markets through acquisitions and strategic partnerships, including a $1.25 billion deal with Rivian.
The company is broadening revenue streams via commercial robotaxi launches in Europe and exclusive U.S. digital retail promotions with Ibotta.
Technical signals indicate persistent selling pressure, with Uber trading in a $70.37 to $73.02 range and further downside risk favored in the near term.

Strategic partnerships and buybacks as selling pressure persists

Uber was reported to be close to acquiring Blacklane as part of its move into the premium chauffeur segment. The company launched a commercial robotaxi service in Zagreb, Croatia, through partnerships with Pony.ai and Verne, and entered a multi-year exclusive deal with Ibotta to deliver digital grocery and retail promotions in the US. Uber also announced a partnership with Rivian linking up to $1.25 billion in investment for autonomous vehicle deployment, and recent activities included share buybacks and management of debt and free cash flow, though price action has remained under broader selling pressure.

Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, notes Uber’s technical setup remains weak with the stock trading under key moving averages. He highlights that even news of strategic partnerships and share buybacks failed to reverse prevailing selling pressure. Fundamental drivers like new investments and acquisitions are not yet translating into renewed investor confidence. All major momentum and oscillator indicators point toward oversold and bearish conditions. "Despite bold news on expansion, current dynamics show little room for optimism — further declines remain likely until buyers step in."

Viktoras Karapetjanc, expert at Traders Union, sees Uber’s recent deals and investments as building long-term value and market leadership. He believes macro trends in mobility and digitalization work in Uber’s favor, especially with moves into autonomous vehicles and premium services. Recent news bolsters the company’s structural growth story, offering multiple setups for patient investors. "Despite short-term headwinds, the underlying bullish structure remains intact and I expect further growth as new initiatives gain traction."

Parshwa Turakhiya, analyst, observes strong bearish sentiment with Uber closing sharply lower and technicals painting an oversold picture. He sees short-term volatility persisting, with limited signs that buyers are reclaiming control. The current setup may offer tactical opportunities for nimble traders, especially if oversold levels trigger a reaction. "In this scenario, I’d watch carefully for a bounce near support at $70.37, but risk remains skewed to the downside for now."

Momentum and oversold signals align as sellers dominate action

Uber trades below its 20-day ($74.80), 50-day ($76.41), and 200-day ($87.37) moving averages, indicating persistent pressure from sellers across short-, medium-, and long-term timeframes. The nearest dynamic resistance is the Ichimoku Kijun level at $74.59. Momentum indicators show a firmly negative bias, with the MACD favoring further declines and the Average Directional Index (ADX) signaling weak directional strength. Both the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and Commodity Channel Index (CCI) point to oversold conditions, and the Stochastic RSI signals the stock is deeply oversold across multiple timeframes. Bull/Bear Power (BBP) is negative, confirming that sellers dominate intraday momentum and flagging the stock as oversold. Uber opened with a downside gap of roughly $0.77, then slipped 2.26% to $71.43, trading near the low end of today’s range as intraday volatility stands at 1.48%. The intraday tone is one of continued selling pressure after the open. Most momentum and oscillator signals align in signaling downside risk, with no material divergence observed.

Earlier, analysts noted that Uber shares remained under consistent selling pressure despite strategic advances in autonomous technology partnerships. The latest broader weakness and oversold signals reinforce a bearish outlook, making a breakdown below $70.37 the key downside risk to watch for an accelerated move lower.
