- Uber (UBER) vs. DoorDash (DASH): Is Faster Growth Worth Paying More For?
Over the past six months, UBER returned -1% and DASH returned 22%, as of October 12. Uber says customers who use both ride-hailing and Uber Eats grow 1.5x faster than those who use only one service, while DoorDash is expanding into grocery, retail, advertising and merchant services. In Q2 2026, DoorDash orders rose 27% to 970 million and revenue rose 36% to $4.5 billion, or 24% excluding the Deliveroo acquisition. Uber posted gross bookings above $58 billion and trailing 12-month free cash flow above $10 billion. At 15.92x forward earnings for Uber versus 38.02x for DoorDash, the article notes that Uber's trailing P/E of 15.22x is affected by a roughly $1.6 billion pre-tax revaluation gain, and says Uber has the easier valuation case, while DoorDash must still prove its newer categories can become profitable.
- When Should You Buy DoorDash Stock?
DoorDash (DASH) shares are down 33.8% over the past twelve months against a 15.3% gain for the S&P 500, and sit 36.7% below their highest close of the past year. The stock trades at 5.0 times twelve-month sales, about half the 9.7 times recorded a year earlier, though the June-quarter operating margin fell to 3.5% from 5.0%. At the October 26 close it traded at 87.0 times earnings and 25.9 times operating cash flow, which the article says makes it look far more expensive on profit than on cash. Analysts expect third-quarter 2026 revenue of $4.66 billion, about 35% higher than a year earlier, and management guided adjusted EBITDA of $0.95 billion to $1.1 billion. The article says buying before the November report would not be too early if revenue meets forecasts and adjusted EBITDA falls within or above guidance, but would be early if either metric falls short.

BofA Securities says Uber Technologies (UBER) is positioned to meet its Q3 earnings forecasts amid competition from autonomous vehicles. The available text does not specify the risks Uber must also monitor.
- 3 Magnificent Stocks Trading Near Their 52-Week Lows
This article highlights three leading stocks trading near their 52-week lows: Netflix (NFLX), American Express (AXP) and Uber Technologies (UBER), even as the S&P 500 has continued to climb. Netflix is down more than 30% this year on concerns about slowing growth and intensifying competition, but it still forecasts 13% full-year revenue growth and trades at 18 times earnings. American Express has fallen over 15% despite adjusted net income of $3.2 billion in the third quarter, up 11% year over year, and trades at a price-to-earnings multiple of 19 versus the S&P 500 average of 23. Uber trades at less than 15 times trailing earnings after revenue rose 12% and bookings increased 24% in the June quarter. The author argues the market is wrong to see autonomous driving as a risk to Uber, which could instead complement its existing platform.
- Uber’s Woes Continue But This Wall Street Pro Says It’s Going to Double WIthin a Year
Uber shares trade at $69.31, 30% below their 52-week high, and the average analyst target of $100.86 implies 45.5% upside. Evercore ISI's Mark Mahaney holds the Street-high $150 target and expects the stock to more than double. Pressure came from third-quarter adjusted EPS guidance of 84 to 88 cents, below the 89 cents expected, plus plans to spend more than $10 billion on robotaxis amid reports Waymo may end its partnership. Mahaney's bull case rests on Uber becoming the orchestrator of autonomous fleets, delivery revenue growth of 28%, and trailing free cash flow above $10 billion for the first time, and the CEO has also bought 141,000 shares. The article calls the roughly $100 consensus target more realistic, and flags risks from AV spending hurting margins or Waymo walking away.

- What sets AMD data centers apart as Intel stock keeps sliding?
AMD beat Wall Street estimates for its third-quarter earnings, as AI data center revenue nearly doubled to $8.55 billion. Guests said Intel posted strong data center numbers but weak PC sales, and its stock plunged, while AMD's forward guidance, contracts, backlog and margins were seen as stronger. Revenue could grow 80% in 2027, up from an earlier estimate of 35%. They noted that higher memory prices and component costs were hurting PC demand, with 2027 PC shipments projected to fall by a double-digit percentage and gaming sales down 8% year-on-year. Commentators compared AMD's focus on data centers to Nvidia's shift from gaming chips to AI.
- Dow Jones futures surge 1,000 points after Democratic win, Trump makes surprising new move
Dow Jones futures jumped as much as 1,083 points, or 2.1%, after Democrats won majorities in both the House and Senate in the midterm elections and took several key governorships, including Texas. The result could curb President Trump's policies, which combined business tax cuts with tariffs and the war in Iran, contributing to higher inflation. S&P 500 futures rose 1.1%, while Nasdaq-100 gained only 0.4% as AI-linked stocks came under pressure. Trump told the New York Times he was “fully prepared” to accept the results and said he and Republican lawmakers would work with Democrats, while Walmart rose 2%, Bank of America 1.9%, UnitedHealth 1.4% and Molina Healthcare 6.3%. Investors remain wary of possible restrictions on data center construction, as Gina Hinojosa, who pledged to pause new data center projects, won the Texas governor's race.
- What i-80 Gold (IAU) Said on Its Q3 Earnings Call
i-80 Gold said the feasibility study for Granite Creek Underground is complete, outlining an 8.5-year mine life, while Archimedes is set to begin mining in Q4 2026. The Lone Tree refurbishment is on schedule for first gold in Q4 2027, with its $430 million capital estimate largely intact. The company expects production to rise from 40,000–50,000 ounces annually to 150,000–200,000 ounces from 2028, with 2026 output in the lower half of guidance. In Q3, Granite Creek produced about 9,100 ounces of gold, though processing lagged mining due to limited availability at a third-party processor. At quarter-end, the company held about $411 million in cash and could access up to roughly $350 million in additional liquidity over the next 18 months, subject to financing arrangements and approvals.
- CoreWeave, Nebius Slide As Blue Wave Clouds AI Boom
CoreWeave and Nebius shares fell as investors worried that the “blue wave” result in the midterm elections could slow the build-out of AI data centers.
- AI data center stocks dip as midterm elections shake up Wall Street
CNBC cited $173 million in General Election data center advertising, almost all negative, with $140 million from Democratic advertisers. An NBC exit poll found 56% of voters called AI and data centers a crucial or major factor in their vote. In Texas, Hinojosa defeated Abbott, and her platform includes a moratorium or new requirements for data centers in a state expected to account for a quarter of capacity by 2030. Panelists said investors are wary, pushing down neocloud stocks such as CoreWeave and Applied Digital, along with Tesla and SpaceX, while hyperscalers were holding up better. They also noted that public opposition to nearby data centers over noise, gas turbines, fumes and water use had grown.
- Why Cipher Digital Stock Lost 53.9% in October
Cipher Digital (CIFR) fell 53.9% in October, versus a 0.9% dip in the S&P 500, as AI infrastructure stocks came under pressure over heavy borrowing needs. The sell-off intensified after the company raised $850 million through 0% convertible notes due 2032, with a conversion price of $15.31 per share, and the stock dropped 12.8% and 12.4% as the deal priced. Other pressures included a $359 million investment in the Barber Lake campus where construction costs rose, a Barclays warning on AI financing, and a record $6.3 billion Binance hack that hit crypto stocks. Bitcoin mining still accounted for 78% of Q3 revenue. Cipher has $16.6 billion in contracted revenue and expects about $864 million in annual net operating income once three campuses stabilize, yet it owes about $6.7 billion and was worth about $3 billion at the end of October. The article says the key question is whether the company can sign leases that justify its borrowing.
