Spanish mobility company Cabify is driving a strategy based on the mobility-as-a-service (MaaS) model in order to fend off competition in Brazil posed by market leaders Uber and DiDi Chuxing-owned firm 99.

The MaaS market is expected to grow significantly in the next few years, reaching approximately $253.16 billion by 2023, according to Market Research Future. This is true particularly in mature markets such as the US and Europe owing to early adoption of the model, but developing countries are catching up fast, Brazil being particularly attractive due to its significant market size.

Cabify is confident that the MaaS model is the ideal approach for the Iberian and Latin markets in which it operates, including Brazil.

die Rakuten da investiert hat, das kann sich rächen wenn der von ihnen thematisierte "Schweinezyklus" zu Ende geht.

Zudem sind ja all diese neuen Mobilitätsdienste ständig von Regulerungen bedroht, da laufen in diversen Ländern entsprechende gesetzliche Initiativen.
Und ich denke auch zurecht.

Birgt eben schon ein hohes Risiko.

natürlich.

Derartiges publizieren würde, würde m.E. gleich von einer Milliarden-Bewertung geredet werden, während das bei Rakuten als Risiko gesehen wird. Meines Erachtens sind das ideale Voraussetzungem für einem Einstieg oder Zukauf von Rakuten-Aktien.

in einer Phase der Börsen Hausse wäre ich mit Aussagen vom idealen Einstiegspunkt aber mehr als vorsichtig, was der markt bislang als Risiken in die Bewertung einfliessen läßt verschwindet ja nicht in einer Zeit möglicher Gesamtwirtschaftlicher Abschwächung sondern verstärkt sich im gegenteil Hebelartig.

Vor solch schwachen Aktien wie Rakuten muß man also eher warnen, nicht zum Kauf locken.

Die Zahlen oben sprechen ja auch nicht dafür das sich die hohen Investitionen und Riesensummen die in neue Projekte und Unternehmen gesteckt wurden so schnell rechnen werden.

Ganz egal, ob man das Non-GAAP Operating Income von 161.1 Billionen Yen oder das IFRS Operating Income von  170.4 Billionen Yen nimmt, stellt das für ein Unternehmen mit nur  ca. 10 Milliarden Dollar Marktkapitalisierung einen gigantischen Wert dar.

Selbst wenn wir den niedrigeren Wert von 161.1 Billionen Yen nehmen, sind das bei 1 Yen = 0,0092 Dollar immerhin 1,482 Milliarden US-Dollar und ein KGV von knapp unter 7.

Rakuten's Annual Revenues Top One T. Yen for 1st TimeMajor Japanese online shopping mall operator Rakuten Inc. <4755> said Tuesday that its annual revenues exceeded one trillion yen for the first time in the business year through December 2018. Rakuten posted consolidated revenues of 1,101,480 million yen, up 16.6 pct from the previous year, supported by strong banking, credit card and other financial operations. The group's operating and net profits grew 14.1 pct to 170,425 million yen and 28.7 pct to 142,282 million yen, respectively. Both figures marked record highs. The earnings were partly pushed up by a profit of 23.5 billion yen from the sale of matchmaking service unit O-net Inc. Rakuten, which is slated to become a fourth mobile phone carrier in Japan in October, also announced an agreement to form a strategic capital and business tie-up with U.S. mobile technology firm Altiostar Networks Inc.

sehen je nach Seite anders aus, eigene Berechnungen von ihnen wirken ja immer etwas seltsam.

So günstig wie sie immer behaupten ist Rakuten beileibe nicht.

Uber Technologies Inc. and Lyft Inc. have received initial feedback from the Securities and Exchange Commission about their confidential IPO filings, according to people familiar with the matter.

The two ride-hailing companies filed confidentially with the regulator in December. Barring another shutdown, Lyft continues to target a March or April listing, a person familiar with the matter said. Bloomberg has previously reported that the company was considering that timing.

das Rakuten weder mit AMAZON noch mit Alibaba wird mithalten können, um nur 2 Beispiele zu nennen.
Raku kauft wild um sich um ein eigenes Ökosystem zu etablieren und hat in jedem Bereich übermächtige Konkurrenten vor der Nase die das Rennen machen werden.
Und insofern war Rakuten sicherlich mal sehr gut, weil neu und innovativ. Aber das war eben einmal,du hast die beste Phase längst verpasst und investierst dein Geld Jahre zu spät.
Denn tatsächlich bewegt sich im Leben alles in Zyklen.
