Should Tesla Buy This Ride-Sharing Giant To Supercharge Robotaxi Dreams? Analyst Explains Why It Makes Sense
Portfolio Pulse from Shanthi Rexaline
Gary Black from Future Fund suggests that Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) should consider buying Uber Technologies, Inc. (NYSE:UBER) to capitalize on its Robotaxi service. This acquisition would provide Tesla with access to Uber's 137 million consumers and their data. However, some critics argue that Tesla's data is superior to Uber's. Furthermore, Tesla would need to sell shares or raise debt financing to afford Uber's $95 billion market. Tesla's stock closed down 2.67% at $254.11, while Uber's stock rose 0.66% to $46.96.
