Tigress Financial analyst Ivan Feinseth has maintained a Buy rating on Uber Technologies and raised the price target to $115 from $110. The adjustment reflects an updated outlook on the company's stock performance.

Rating and Price Target

The analyst's decision to retain the Buy rating accompanies a revised price target, signaling continued confidence in Uber Technologies' market position.

Uber Technologies Inc has filed a lawsuit against New York City to stop the enforcement of Local Law 52 of 2026, a rule that limits when large ride-hailing platforms can remove drivers. The company argues the measure raises safety risks, compromises rider privacy, and causes immediate harm to its brand. The lawsuit, filed in a federal court in Manhattan, marks a significant escalation in the ongoing dispute between ride-sharing platforms and city regulators over labor protections.

The City Council approved the legislation by a 46-5 vote in January, and it is scheduled to take effect on July 28. Uber contends the law makes it difficult to take action against drivers it deems unsafe or engaged in misconduct. The rule permits driver removal only for specific conduct, including account sharing, fraud, violence, sexual harassment, assault, and discrimination.

Key Legal Challenges

Uber specifically challenged a requirement to provide 14 days' notice before deactivation. The company stated this delay could expose riders to retaliation and force it to revisit older cases dating back to 2019. Furthermore, Uber argued the law could compromise rider privacy by requiring the disclosure of complaints to the driver accused of abuse.

The outcome of this legal challenge could have broader implications for how cities across the United States approach the regulation of ride-sharing services and driver welfare. New York City has often set precedents in regulating the gig economy that other municipalities follow.
