Interesting comment in this article from Uber's Chief Technology Officer.

https://edition.cnn.com/2019/07/09/tech ... index.html

"If people invest in Uber, they should be long-term investments," said Pham. "We're not in this business for the profit in the next year or two, we're thinking about changing the landscape of transportation."

"That's going to take years if not decades to fully realize," he said.

Still down about 2.5% since IPO.

But the first real test will be in September when existing share holders can sell their shares.

I suspect many will bail out and the share price will drop significantly.

the money in stocks/shares is in the trading not always in the actual price... long term it will do fine, and brokers will make millions

That's not likely to affect Uber's European ops too much as they are already regulated as a transport provider in most of Europe.

As for their share price a post IPO drop of 2-3% is nothing. IPOs are there for the early investors to get their cash out, it's not necessarily an indication of market confidence. For example Facebook shares dropped 40% from their IPO price over the 2 months following their IPO. They were at double the IPO price by the end of the year and are now 8x that price.
