what loss? Looks like Softbank is already making small (by the tech standards) profit (if they had the stomach to make through the trough of course) - $7.6B invested for 220 million shares at the current stock price is more than $8.6B :
". The Japanese conglomerate spent about $6.6 billion to buy just over 200 million shares from existing investors, including former CEO Travis Kalanick, at around $32.87 a piece. It provided another $1.05 billion in fresh capital to Uber, buying 21.45 million shares at about $48.77 each."
