Uber of Middle East joins Uber, huh.
Careem is dominant in the Middle East. I am curious if this will be a precedence for how Uber will attempt to handle 99, Didi, Ola, Grab, etc.
Uber spends so much time trying to dominate the world that they are not realizing that Lyft is seriously gaining on them in the US. In the end they may lose out both domestically and internationally as they just tried to bite off way more than they can chew.
Makes sense. Uber cleaning up their balance sheet. Time to consolidate, streamline, cut the fat, etc. Gotta look pretty.
Uber's world dominance sure did fizzle fast.
