Let me summarize the risks section of Uber's 10K for you:
- We don't turn a profit and we might never. In fact our cash burn rate is just as bad as the day we started.
- If we want to actually turn a profit we'll have to somehow convince our customers to pay significantly more for the exact same undifferentiated ride experience our competitors offer.
- If we can't convince our customers to pay more for the exact same service, we'll need to become the world's greatest operations gurus and realize efficiencies that don't and might never exist.
- People who aren't our employees are suing us because the want to be our employees and this is bad because if our not-employees are become actual employees then the cost of benefits we'll have to pay will bankrupt us.

...because the absolute share price is significant in any way
Because I knew that more than half the people who read the post were going to pull up google, and search the share price prior to posting a response... saved people a step in the process, that’s all.
I have put Uber at limit buy @ $36
I rest my case :)
I assume markets are pretty efficient, and pricing is about fair. Active management increases variance, and you’re likely to falsely attribute upside to genius and downside to bad luck.
Uber has built an amazing company / cash burning machine....
