Uber Technologies Inc. has set up a waitlist for customers interested in riding in a robotaxi in London, ahead of a planned commercial debut in the UK this year. Customers in the UK can join an “interest list” in the Uber app starting Monday to indicate their preference and increase their chances of being matched with a Wayve Technologies Ltd. robotaxi when the service begins, Uber said in a statement. The ride-hailing company didn’t disclose a timeline for the launch. Like the Uber app in Austin and Atlanta, where the company works with Alphabet Inc.’s Waymo to offer driverless rides, customers in London will have the option to accept a driverless vehicle or switch to a human-driven ride. The autonomous vehicles, which are electric Ford Mustang Mach-E SUVs equipped with cameras, radar sensors and self-driving software developed by UK-based Wayve, will be initially supervised by a licensed operator behind the wheel. The operator won’t manually drive the vehicle unless an intervention is required, a spokesperson for Wayve said. Wayve requires additional regulatory approvals from the UK’s Department for Transport before offering unmanned passenger rides, according to the spokesperson. That also applies to competitors like Waymo and China’s Baidu Inc. , which are similarly planning to offer their robotaxi services in London this year. Read More: Waymo Reckons It’s Ready to Navigate London Streets: Hyperdrive While Waymo has been in the lead in expanding across the US, other companies are accelerating robotaxi rollouts globally. Uber has partnered with more than a dozen technology and vehicle partners, including China’s WeRide Inc. and Pony AI Inc. , to offer driverless rides on its app in the Middle East and parts of Europe . The upcoming launch would mark Wayve’s first passenger service after tests across Europe, North America and Japan in recent years. In February, it raised $1.5 billion from investors including Eclipse Ventures LLC, Balderton Capital, SoftBank Visio...
Investors in early-stage clean technologies in the US and Europe may be less diversified than they realize.

Investors in early-stage clean technologies in the US and Europe may be less diversified than they realize. An analysis by S2G Investments found that a handful of large venture funds dominate capital allocation in the sector, often backing the same companies. As a result, energy-transition investing is more concentrated, leaving investors exposed to many of the same risks. “From a limited partner’s point of view, even if you feel you’re being disciplined by diversifying allocation across three or four funds, if they are all large they are likely putting your money into the same companies so you may not be getting the diversification you thought you were,” Francis O’Sullivan , managing director of energy at S2G Investments, said in an interview. S2G oversees about $2.8 billion and focuses on late-stage venture and growth-stage businesses in sectors including energy and agriculture. The energy transition continues to draw record funding as the economics of clean technologies such as solar and batteries improve, even as political opposition to renewable power grows in some countries, particularly the US. Still, for investors looking to deploy capital in the sector, understanding the market structure remains critical. S2G found that just six funds, each with more than $1 billion in assets under management, accounted for about 26% of all new early-stage capital raised between 2021 and 2025. At the same time, 57 transactions of $100 million or more represented just 1.7% of all early-stage deals, yet they made up approximately 45% of all early-stage capital deployed during the period. Given the limited number of large opportunities, high levels of co-investment among the big funds is a resultant feature of the market, S2G said. A key drawback of having so much money controlled by a small number of large funds is that their investment focus is “narrower than what is optimal to support the full spectrum of early-stage energy innovation,” O’Sullivan said. “When you have a $1 ...

MF3d/E+ via Getty Images CrowdStrike ( CRWD ) is seeing material momentum for its AI-driven Falcon platform, which is critical for the cybersecurity company to escalate its annual recurring revenue/ARR growth in the years ahead. CrowdStrike also just beat estimates for both the top and the bottom line for its first fiscal quarter on June 3, 2026. Despite the strong double beat for the first quarter, as well as robust guidance for net new ARR in FY 2027, CrowdStrike's shares dipped as much as ~11% on Thursday, which was likely due to a desire for profit taking rather than serious concerns about CrowdStrike's business trajectory (CRWD ended the day only 4% lower, however). While I would not recommend buying shares at the current valuation level -- shares are trading at 25X forward revenues (not earnings!) -- CrowdStrike is a solid 'Hold' amid a strong ARR ramp and robust demand for its AI-driven cybersecurity services. Previous rating I recommended CrowdStrike as a 'Hold' in March, Unjustified SaaS Fears (Rating Upgrade) , because I felt that the market was overly pessimistic with respect to the impact of artificial intelligence on software businesses. While I have had issues with CrowdStrike's stretched valuation in the past, I do like the growth tailwind coming from its AI-supported Falcon platform that helps companies detect cybersecurity threats in real time. CrowdStrike beat estimates for Q1’27 CrowdStrike published better-than-expected top and bottom line results for the first fiscal quarter of FY 2027: the cybersecurity platform generated $1.10 per share in non-GAAP earnings vs. $1.07 per share expected. The top-line figure was published at $1.39B, beating the consensus estimate by $23M. Seeking Alpha Once again, key to CrowdStrike’s outperformance in the first fiscal quarter was strong adoption of its AI-supported cybersecurity platform Falcon, which offers consolidated protection across endpoints, cloud workloads, identity, and data. CrowdStrike's Falcon plat...

tupungato/iStock Editorial via Getty Images Anyone who follows the telecommunications industry knows that it can often be boiled down to a customer acquisition battle. The churn rate of customers is known to be a major concern for every telecommunications company, as many customers feel that the services are more or less interchangeable. The customer just wants to get the best plan at a price point that they can afford. A blog on IBM's website details why it is so critical that every telecom company work diligently to treat its customers well: The entire telecommunications industry is subject to potential churn if companies don’t treat their customers right. They need to provide exemplary network service and offer the latest technologies, but they also need to listen to their customers' needs. They can provide exemplary customer service by proactively communicating, listening to criticisms and complaints and providing simple-to-use tools to manage their accounts. Knowing this, the first question that I concerned myself with when examining T-Mobile ( TMUS ) as a stock was where the company stood in terms of customer acquisition and churn rates. Industry-Leading Customer Acquisition and Incredibly Low Churn Rates If you saw nothing else in the T-Mobile Q1 2026 earnings report , you would at least want to note that the company reported a net gain of 217,000 postpaid account additions. This was up 6% YoY, and the average revenue per postpaid account came in at $151.93 for a YoY increase of 3.9%. These figures meant that T-Mobile was once again the industry leader in postpaid net accounts added throughout the quarter. This distinction is certainly notable, but it was not the only good statistic to emerge from their earnings presentation. Rather, the company also noted a postpaid account churn rate of just 1.04% for the quarter as well. What I took from all of this is that many new customers are being enticed to open accounts with T-Mobile even if they may have previously...
