According to reports from The Information and Bloomberg, the grocery delivery platform has held acquisition discussions with DoorDash and previously entered talks with Uber, though Uber reportedly declined to proceed. The move comes as Instacart maintains a market capitalization exceeding $13 billion and has seen its stock price rise 25% year-to-date. While these discussions are in early stages and may not lead to an acquisition, the news triggered immediate market volatility, sending Instacart shares up over 9% while competitors DoorDash and Uber saw declines.
