Jenny Harrington, CEO, Gilman Hill Asset Management United Parcel Services UPS-N BUY Dec 27, 2024

Not a good option. Turnarounds seldom work out. No growth or capital appreciation in business. High capital requirements. Not a great business model. Better options available for investors in the markets. 

She just bought it. Unlike last year, their labour negotiations are now out of the way, earnings will grow 15-20% into 2026 and trades at a low 14x PE. Even if earnings are only 10%, she'll take it at that PE. It pays a fine 4.8% dividend.

Guided down in a very competitive space. Down 34% over 3 years. Consumers are slowing down, and this may significantly hurt volumes. 

It is OK for a long term play and pays a dividend. Everyone uses it so it is a safe investment but not very exciting. What happens if the U.S. economy slows down.

It's gone down so much and there's more fear heading into the holiday season. You get the 5% dividend yield, but share remain too expensive.

Leans more domestic. Very profitable, historical 20% ROE. Very good dividend and historically stable, though payout ratio is getting uncomfortably high so be careful. Good growth. Lots of opportunity to enhance efficiencies.

Is -16% the past year, and yields 5%. After reading an article today about UPS, he'd rather buy FedEx.

He questions their strategy. Prefers FedEx.
