Google doing more layoffs, restructuring including country moves
if CA wants to pay more for rides, more power to’em
why u short it? up ~3% today
People who think CEOs should get paid similarly to workers are delusional
Uber will have another run of lay-off in the near future, and Lyft will has her first lay-off soon.
This is good for uber and will send the stock higher. Do you know what short means? Short means you think the value will decline.
Yepi do understand shorting. Why do you think stock price will go up??Uber has to put them under payroll and offers perks and paid holidays. This is added expense + drivers will be restricted to 40 hours per week( overtime at 1.5 unless they want to be sued for overworking their full time employees more than 5/40 hours without added compensation) restricted hours = restricted availability of Ubers .Also as a consumer I'll have to pay more so I'll prefer public transportation where it is available ( my mind set again others could be way different )
It’s a moat for them. Basically means there will be no new competition. Prices will go up a little but nobody else will ever try to get in.
If you want to short do it with Lyft, Uber has a huge market and California is a small piece of it that is if this bill would have an impact on Uber rather than the riders in terms of $ for rides
Too much on the left. This is not American way.
Where similar laws implemented the following happened: more expensive service, lower quality and considerable increase of unemployment of the population who needs the most. The idiots that approved this intend to create government dependency to keep getting votes. Dems thrive on the tragedy that is poverty, and to continue thriving, they propagate it. Bunch of f*cking parasites...
Curious what happens to all the TVCs that google/etc have who are basically just under payed coders..
Nothing as they are all employees of the contracting companies
Lol
