Ride-share company Uber records a massive jump in revenue as drivers return and bookings soar

Uber has rocketed into the year.

The ride-share company’s revenue grew 29 per cent in the first quarter, as drivers return and bookings soar.

Uber recorded $8.8 billion in revenue, roughly in line with investor expectations.

The company had $31.4 billion in gross bookings — which is the amount of money paid by customers — a 19 per cent jump from a year ago.

Uber says it is on track to generate a quarterly profit from the strength of its business operations sometime this year — continuing on the road to overall profitability.

“With our global scale and deeper local density, we are increasingly separating from smaller regional competitors both on driver preference and on the breadth of mobility products we offer consumers,” Dara Khosrowshahi, Uber’s chief executive, said in a statement.

Shares of Uber ended the day nearly 12 percent higher, with the company reporting several other figures that beat investor expectations.

Is Bitcoin’s rally here to stay or just another bubble?

Published

on

A combination of institutional interest, economic uncertainty, growing acceptance, and technological progress is driving Bitcoin’s surge.

 
Many factors contribute to Bitcoin’s upward momentum. First and foremost, increasing institutional adoption plays a pivotal role. Major companies and financial institutions are showing growing interest in Bitcoin as an asset class, pouring significant investments into it. This legitimizes the cryptocurrency in the eyes of traditional investors.

Additionally, global economic uncertainty and inflation concerns are pushing individuals to seek alternative investments. Bitcoin, with its limited supply and decentralized nature, is emerging as a store of value and a hedge against economic turbulence.

Moreover, growing mainstream acceptance and awareness are fueling demand. More merchants are accepting Bitcoin as a form of payment, making it increasingly accessible to consumers.

Furthermore, technological advancements, such as the Lightning Network, are improving Bitcoin’s scalability and usability, enhancing its attractiveness as a digital currency. #featured #bitcoin
