A Meme Stock’s Meta Phase; Uber CEO on Surges & Safety; Driving Climate Solutions with Pete Buttigieg

Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi is prioritizing his customers’ experiences, investing in driver acquisition to alleviate price surging and wait times as ride hailing gets back on track. Khosrowshahi also defends his decision not to mandate vaccines for all riders and drivers. The meme stock mania continues with the company that started it all: Robinhood. Now a meme stock itself, Robinhood has announced a stock sale as the retail “apes” push its price higher. In an effort to combat climate change, the White House announced a target for the country’s cars: by 2030, half of all American vehicle sales will be electric. U.S. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg explains the collaboration between the Biden administration and automakers, including voluntary corporate commitments and corresponding federal funding expectations. Plus, an Elon Musk biography is underway, and earnings season is sending issuer stock prices on the market’s roller coaster. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
