Jim Cramer Recommends Uber Technologies Amid Economic Challenges

Uber Technologies is gaining investor confidence due to its unique service-based, asset-light business model, which shields it from tariffs and supply chain disruptions affecting other tech companies. The company operates in over 70 countries, giving it geographic diversification and a buffer against economic downturns in any single market. Uber's growing digital advertising business and strong free cash flow—$6.9 billion in 2024—are fueling its profitability, with analysts projecting further increases in the coming years. Despite robust financials and margin improvements, Uber’s stock remains attractively valued, trading at a lower multiple than many tech peers. While some insiders have recently sold shares and analysts have mixed ratings, the overall outlook remains positive, with potential for future share buybacks. Jim Cramer has also expressed a favorable view of Uber as an investment opportunity.
