We recently published a list of Analysts Identify 10 Least Risky Internet Stocks To Invest In. In this article, we are going to take a look at where Uber Technologies, Inc. (NYSE:UBER) stands against other least risky internet stocks to invest in.

Investors usually do not waste any time reminding everyone of the dot-com bubble whenever the market takes a turn for the worse. With a recession imminent, some sectors have already corrected by so much that they are in bear market territory. Internet stocks belong to the same group.

Analysts at Evercore believe most of the internet stocks have very limited exposure to tariffs but still get hammered every time the market crashes on tariff developments. This means these stocks now present a favorable risk-to-reward ratio for investors.

We therefore decided to dig into the details of each of these internet stocks. To come up with our list of the 10 least risky internet stocks, we used the list compiled by Evercore’s analysts and ranked them by risk, with the least risky stock taking the number one spot.

Uber Technologies, Inc. (NYSE:UBER)

Uber Technologies, Inc. (NYSE:UBER) is an operator and developer of proprietary technology applications. The company operates in the Delivery, Freight, and Mobility segments.

The firm announced an expansion of its grocery delivery service last month through a partnership with a leading online fresh food grocer, FreshDirect. It will provide Uber customers access to prepared meals, high-quality fresh groceries, and pantry staples through the Uber Eats platform. This collaboration brings together FreshDirect’s focus on freshness and quality along with Uber’s reliable delivery network.

At the start of this month, Uber Technologies (NYSE:UBER) entered into an agreement with Dubai’s Road and Transport Authority to introduce autonomous vehicles in Dubai. Under this partnership, Uber will work with the city’s road transport authority on pilot programs, utilizing its technology to connect riders with AVs.

Moreover, the company plans to launch commercial robotaxi services in Atlanta under its collaboration with Waymo. As part of this partnership, the firm will handle charging, vehicle maintenance, and access management through its app. Despite concerns regarding Tesla’s entry into the Robotaxis market, Uber Technologies (NYSE:UBER) stands out with its solid operations.

Overall, UBER ranks 3rd on our list of least risky internet stocks to invest in. While we acknowledge the potential of UBER as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns, and doing so within a shorter time frame.
