Life is Like a Box of Rideshares...

Mama always said life is like a box of chocolates you never know what you're gonna get. Well this Goldman Sachs fella Eric Sheridan he's saying Lyft is like one of them fancy chocolate boxes now. He thinks their stock is gonna go up up up! Like when Jenny and I watched them birds fly over the ocean. He upgraded it which sounds important and says it could go up by a whole lot more than half! Now I ain't no financial genius like that Apple fella but even I can see that's a good thing.

EBITDA? Sounds Like a Fancy Shrimp Dish!

They had some fancy numbers something called EBITDA. Sounds like a new kind of shrimp Bubba woulda cooked up maybe with some lemon and butter. Anyway they did better than everyone thought they would and their bookings went up. Mr. Sheridan says it's 'cause they're doing new things with their rides and more drivers are showin' up. It's like when I started running and then more and more people started runnin' with me!

Run Lyft Run! (Towards More Money)

Lyft's expectin' even more people to be bookin' rides in the next few months. And they're gonna buy back some of their shares whatever that means. Seems like they're usin' the money to get more money kind of like when I invested in that fruit company. It made me rich! Maybe this Lyft thing will too. I could buy Jenny a whole boatload of shrimp!

Autonomous Vehicles? Sounds Like Some Kind of Space Shuttle!

This Mr. Sheridan is talkin' about autonomous vehicles which sounds like somethin' out of Star Trek. He thinks Lyft will play a big part in them somehow even though they ain't got no drivers. I reckon it's like when I was playin' ping pong with the Army. Even if you don't know what you're doin' you can still win!

Duopoly? Sounds Like a Board Game!

He also mentioned somethin' called a 'duopoly'. Sounds like one of them fancy board games but apparently it means there's only two big companies doin' the rideshare thing. He thinks they'll be nice to each other which I reckon is a good thing. Mama always said 'If you don't have anything nice to say don't say nothin' at all.'

Hold On Tight Folks! It Might Be a Bumpy Ride!

Now not everyone agrees with Mr. Sheridan. Most folks are just sittin' on the fence waitin' to see what happens. But me? I reckon if Goldman Sachs is sayin' good things it's probably worth a shot. Just like when I started runnin'. You never know where it might take you. So buckle up buttercups! This Lyft ride might just take us all the way to the moon!
