Shares of Grubhub owner Just Eat Takeaway.com NV were recently
down 7%, to $17.51, after the New York City Council voted Thursday
to make current regulations for food-delivery apps permanent,
including a cap on fees.
Other parts of the bill include licensing requirements and a
prohibition against listing restaurants without their approval. In
2020, the council passed legislation temporarily prohibiting
third-party services from charging restaurants more than 15% per
delivery order. Grubhub has said a permanent cap would cause
"unprecedented, damaging and long-term consequences" for
restaurants, workers and customers.
DoorDash Inc. was down 1%, to $188.30. Uber Eats owner Uber
Technologies Inc. rose 0.5%, to $40.83.
