The British food delivery service Deliveroo $ROO (-0.48%) has officially confirmed that a takeover bid from US competitor DoorDash $DASH (+1.11%) is on the table. This rumor had been floating around since last year, when earlier talks about a potential purchase stalled due to differing views on the company's valuation. Negotiations were broken off in May 2022, but the current offer could breathe new life into the discussions. A merger between these two heavyweights in the food delivery industry could not only shake up market shares, but also set new standards in the delivery services industry. The question remains as to how the two companies will react to their previous differences and whether they can now develop a common vision for the future.

In the USA, Volkswagen $VOW3 (+2.74%)-CEO Oliver Blume caused a stir by questioning the planned end of new combustion cars in 2035. In a revealing interview, Blume expressed his approval of a proposal from the EU Commission that envisages a three-year compensation mechanism for the CO₂ fleet targets from 2025 to 2027. This concept could give manufacturers more leeway to achieve their CO₂ targets without losing valuable savings. Blume emphasized that politicians urgently need to provide more support in order to really master the challenges associated with the upcoming milestones. Given the changing framework conditions in the automotive industry and the focus on sustainability, how these discussions develop and what role the company will play in them could be crucial for Volkswagen.

While some of the food delivery providers have delivered decently in recent weeks, others are still in the midst of a correction.

Of course, you should also get something from us. Therefore, a small but fine location determination of the mentioned stocks based on the technical 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗹𝘆𝘀𝗲 (in the weekly chart) 𝗳ü𝗿 𝗹ä𝗻𝗴𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗿𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗴 𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗲𝗿𝘁𝗲 𝗔𝗻𝗹𝗲𝗴𝗲𝗿.

We hope that these will support you in your decisions.

𝗗𝗲𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗼 (𝗪𝗞𝗡 𝗔𝟮𝗘𝟰𝗞𝟰)

The share has been in an extended correction since January, during which a support zone around ~100 euros was formed in recent months. It is interesting that the EMA50 in the weekly chart could always be defended so far and could now be tested again. This may again offer good opportunities for longer-term investors.

𝗛𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗼𝗙𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗵 (𝗪𝗞𝗡 𝗔𝟭𝟲𝟭𝟰𝟬)

Here you really do not need to lose many words ;)

Of course, the share cannot be fully compared with the other providers, as it is a somewhat different business model. In any case, there is an intact upward trend on the chart. Open price targets are in the range around 100 euros.

𝗝𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗘𝗮𝘁 𝗧𝗮𝗸𝗲𝗮𝘄𝗮𝘆 (𝗪𝗞𝗡 𝗔𝟮𝗔𝗦𝗔𝗖)

Compared to the competition, the food supplier's share has already completed a longer correction and now shows tendencies of bottoming in the chart. If this is confirmed in the coming weeks, a continuation of the overriding upward movement could be imminent.

𝗗𝗲𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗼𝗼 (𝗪𝗞𝗡 𝗔𝟮𝗤𝗦𝗝𝗭)

Due to the lack of history in the chart, it is not possible to make a sound and serious assessment here. However, two possible price targets for the current upward movement result from the Elliot wave theory. These would be at 4.79 euros and 5.64 euros (Fibonacci intention).

Delivery Hero has built up a position in Deliveroo of just over 5%, buying into its rival. The German company probably had to put around £400 million on the table to buy the shares. 👌🏼

In 2020, Deliveroo was able to achieve sales of £2.1 billion (previous year: £2.5 billion) and thus grew significantly. However, as an online food delivery service, it has naturally benefited from the Corona crisis. 😁

There are no profits so far. £223.7 million loss in 2020 (previous year: £317 million), so significantly better than in 2019 🤝

Yesterday, Deliveroo shares then jumped significantly - in total, the company, which only went public this year, has a market value of around EUR 7 billion. Delivery Hero, on the other hand, fell slightly yesterday and has a market capitalization of around EUR 32 billion. 😎

Both are European "giants" in their field, Delivery Hero certainly more so (they are also invested in other competitors such as Glovo, Just Eat Takeaway, Rappi and Zomato). 👌🏼

Do you think Delivery Hero is exciting? 🧐
