The AI's read

Uber disclosed it sold its entire stake in Serve Robotics and the startup says it was caught off guard. That suggests Uber is dialing back on its autonomous delivery experiment. Shares dropped about 4% after the filing, so the market has already priced some of the hit. RSI near 63 is not extreme, leaving room for follow-through if sentiment worsens. We lean bearish on the autonomy narrative, not on Uber's core ride and delivery business. This is a company-specific hit that trims optionality and raises execution risk for the AV roadmap.
