[Derby City Daily logo]( February 6, 2024 [Why Weâre Not Gobbling up DoorDash Just Yet]( By Andy Swan With high-profile events like the Super Bowl and Q4 earnings on the horizon, DoorDash (DASH) expectations are mounting... DoorDash wants to make sure you know itâs not just a food delivery service anymore â and itâs leveraging the single-biggest TV broadcast of the year to do it. An estimated 115 million folks tuned into last yearâs Super Bowl faceoff between the Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles, making it one of the most-watched broadcasts of all time â second only to the Apollo 11 Moon landing. (Fair enough.) But with high-profile megastar Taylor Swift on the roster, this weekendâs Super Bowl LVIII in Las Vegas could easily surpass that record. (And that could spell great news for our favorite [$2 AI moonshot]( DoorDash is taking full advantage of that captive audience with a savvy new promotion: From Popeyes to âall the vehicles,â the company promised to deliver âall the adsâ to a lucky winner who can crack a hidden code revealed in this yearâs Super Bowl commercials. DoorDash is looking to bring awareness to its expanded offerings: The company recently evolved from a food delivery service to a âjust-about-anythingâ delivery service with a massive update to its platform in June. Users can now search categories like alcohol, flowers, pets, health, retail, beauty, and more. The companyâs long-term goal, according to head of product Rajat Shroff, is âbringing the entire city to the consumersâ fingertips.â For consumers, convenience is still king, says DoorDash. And it capitalized on that demand in the third quarter of 2023. RECOMMENDED LINK [Election Shock on August 19th?](

The company also saw a substantial reduction in losses, narrowing to $75 million from $296 million in the same quarter of the previous year. The market gobbled up the results: DASH shares soared more than 15% higher immediately following the report and has sustained that momentum ever since. But as we gear up for DoorDashâs Q4 earnings (due next Thursday, February 15), LikeFolio data suggests reason for caution... DoorDash: Not so Fast Several critical consumer metrics point to a potential slowdown in growth and engagement for DoorDash that Wall Street might not see coming. The company's mention volume has slipped by 9% year over year on a 30-day moving average, worsening from a 5% dip on a 90-day view. This trend is mirrored by consumer web traffic analysis, which indicates [Uber (UBER)]( is capturing some of DoorDash's market share. While DoorDash's web traffic has posted a slight one-point decrease year over year, Uber Eats has seen a five-point increase in traffic: GrubHub remains significantly behind its competitors in this metric.
