Morgan Stanley lowered its price target on Uber's stock to $110 from $115, although it maintained its "Overweight" rating.

Shares of financial advisory firm Lazard (NYSE:LAZ) fell 3% in the afternoon session after the company reported that its preliminary assets under management (AUM) for November fell to approximately $250.8 billion, a 6.3% decrease from the previous month.

This event was particularly concerning for investors because the company had previously expected this withdrawal to occur in 2026 or later.
