UBER: Jim Cramer Sees Multi-Year Upside — But $200M IPO Settlement Still in Play
Court: N.D. California
Case: 3:19-cv-06361
Uber UBER continues to attract bullish sentiment, with Jim Cramer declaring he has “great ambitions” for the stock. Speaking on air, Cramer noted that Uber’s strong fundamentals should allow it to break through the $100 mark and continue rallying over the next several years.
- “Uber is not going to be contained by $100.”
- Praised its free cash flow profile and multi-segment growth (rideshare, delivery, freight)
- Downplayed AV competition: “Especially with the setback of Elon.”
The stock is already up 41% YTD, and Cramer’s remarks reinforce growing institutional confidence, despite some investor rotation into AI-heavy names.
