Zacks Investment Ideas feature highlights: Serve Robotics, Uber Technologies and Nvidia
Chicago, IL – June 6, 2025 – Today, Zacks Investment Ideas feature highlights Serve Robotics Inc. SERV, Uber Technologies UBER and Nvidia NVDA.
Few investors have even heard of Serve Robotics Inc., yet the coming weeks could push this micro-cap onto every AI and robotics watch-list. Spun out of Uber Technologies in 2021, the company's bright-blue sidewalk robots have already logged tens of thousands of autonomous deliveries, but the real inflection point is just ahead. Management has begun a nationwide roll-out with Uber Eats, most recently adding the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex, and is racing toward a contractual goal of deploying 2,000 units before year-end.
SERV stock has been on a rocky path over the last two years, marked by fits of big rallies, selloffs and high volatility. But now, it appears the catalysts are aligning. Along with the Uber rollout, Serve sales growth is expected to inflect significantly higher in the coming quarters, while the stock price is building powerful momentum.
With the robotics theme really grabbing attention in the last couple of weeks, and the technology suddenly gaining practical application, Serve Robotics Inc. stock may be about to take off.
Although Serve Robotics still operates at a loss, sales are expected to meaningfully pick up over the next year. Current year sales are forecast to come in around $5 million, while next year is expected to jump 670% to $41.2 million.
However, with the unprecedented opportunity ahead in the robotics industry, even those forecasts could be understated.
Notably, Serve Robotics is hosting an annual meeting on June 12th, which could mark a major announcement and add to the upside catalysts in the stock.
I began writing about the opportunities in robotics stocks just a couple of weeks ago as the theme is quickly picking up steam. While high-profile names like Nvidia are the obvious plays, lesser-known companies like Serve Robotics offer investors a non-consensus way to capture more asymmetric upside in this rapidly evolving space.
That said, Nvidia remains a core opportunity. The company has made its ambitions in robotics clear, aiming to dominate the category just as it has in artificial intelligence. Its expanding microprocessor platform is designed to power everything from warehouse bots to autonomous delivery systems, placing Nvidia at the center of the AI-robotics-automation nexus.
Meanwhile, Uber Technologies has quietly become one of the most forward-thinking players in automation. Through its partnership with Serve Robotics for sidewalk delivery and its growing relationship with Waymo on the ride-hailing front, Uber is leveraging cutting-edge technology to redefine logistics.
As I have noted, SERV stock has really begun to pick up steam in the last couple of months. After bottoming in early April, along with the broader market, the stock has gone on a quick 130% run.
Over the last few days, SERV has been forming a clear technical bull flag, highlighting a potentially opportune time to start buying the stock. If it can trade materially above the $12.30 level, it would signal a technical breakout, and could lead to another sustained bull run.
Serve Robotics Inc. isn't for the faint of heart. As a small-cap stock with limited liquidity and a short trading history, SERV has been prone to dramatic price swings.
However, for those who can stomach the ups and downs, SERV may represent one of the most compelling high-risk, high-reward opportunities in the AI and robotics space. The company is targeting a real, tangible use case, last-mile delivery, and is executing alongside a blue-chip partner in Uber Technologies. Sales growth is accelerating, momentum is building, and investor awareness is only just beginning to catch up.
In a market hungry for the next big breakthrough, Serve Robotics offers something rare: early-stage exposure to a real-world robotics deployment with massive scaling potential. For speculative investors looking to ride the next wave of automation, this stock may be worth a serious look.
Since 2000, our top stock-picking strategies have blown away the S&P's +7.7% average gain per year. Amazingly, they soared with average gains of +48.4%, +50.2% and +56.7% per year.

Another bit of news during the reveal is the confirmation that the Hollow Knight follow-up, Silksong, will be available when the ROG Xbox Ally is released. Details about pricing and release date weren't revealed during the show, but if it's priced similarly to the ROG Ally when it launched, you can expect a price around $600 and a release date around the holidays later this year.

Snag the Roku Ultra 4K Streaming Device for a Near Record Low Price
Whether you're ready to binge some new shows or you're focused on baseball season, these days the options for streaming to your TV seem nearly endless. Roku is a tried and true brand and the maker of some of our favorite streaming devices. Roku offers a number of products, but right now you can pick up the 2024 Roku Ultra for just $1 more than the lowest price we've seen. Currently down to just $80 on Amazon, that saves you $20 on this remote and streaming box combo. The Roku Ultra is at the top end of Roku's lineup and has all the features you're likely to need from a streaming device. Those features include support for 4K streaming, not to mention HDR with Dolby Vision. There's also support for Dolby Atmos for those with compatible audio systems. Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money. That isn't all. This Roku Ultra comes with a rechargeable Roku Voice Remote Pro which does more than let you control what you're watching. Plug in the included earbuds to watch your favorite shows without disturbing others, making the Roku Ultra the perfect solution for late-night bedroom TV viewing. The remote also includes quick-launch buttons for popular streaming services like Netflix, Apple TV Plus, Prime Video and Paramount Plus. This deal is unlikely to stick around for long -- be sure to factor that into your buying decision before the price goes back up. Why this deal matters Regularly priced at $100, saving 20% on the cost of this combo streaming device is a decent savings. In his review of the Roku Ultra, editor Ty Pendlebury noted that this version has some upgrades over the previous model, most of them focused on the remote. At full price he found it a bit spendy, but at $80 it becomes much more of a contender. Last year during Black Friday sales, we saw the price dip to $79 -- a record low. If you don't want to wait it out to save a dollar, now is as good a time as any to upgrade. Looking for new content to enjoy on your new Roku Ultra?
