What are Wall Street analysts saying about LYFT stock?

Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about LYFT stock:

1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Lyft, Inc. is a ride-share company operating a transportation platform that connects passengers with drivers in the US and Canada. Their offerings include an expanded set of transportation modes, such as access to a network of shared bikes and scooters for shorter rides and first-mile and last-mile legs of multimodal trips. They have also added information about nearby public transit routes in select cities to offer riders a robust view of transportation options. Their multimodal platform enables TaaS, which they believe offers a viable alternative to car ownership. " (8/7/2019)
2. SunTrust Banks, Inc. analysts commented, "We believe Lyft is benefiting from favorable secular and demographic trends affecting the emerging TaaS market. These are driven by the ubiquity and sophistication of personal mobile devices, and the ever-advancing set of consumer preferences, applied to the massive and highly inefficient $1.2T transportation market. We believe these trends are translating into robust, sustained growth for Lyft for years to come, and in time attractive profitability, making the stock a compelling “pure play” on this emerging segment in NA. Big Differentiator. Unlike Uber (Buy), which is more diversified and global, Lyft’s focus on personal mobility-only and on North America should allow it to continue to move faster, lead the industry in innovation and service, in our view."
