Uber stock rose 7% following its announcement of a $10 billion investment in robotaxi technology, aiming to lead the autonomous vehicle platform market. The company reported strong Q4 2025 financials, including 20% revenue growth and a $20 billion share buyback program. Lyft also gained 7%, boosted by a $1 billion share repurchase plan and expanding autonomous vehicle partnerships, despite some concerns about slowing U.S. growth. Both companies' moves reflect growing investor confidence in the future of autonomous ridesharing, with market watchers keen on upcoming updates about Uber's robotaxi plans and Lyft's partnerships.
