Is higher despite downgrades today. They spun off GXO and RXO. It now trades at 6x EBITDA vs. peers of 10x or 18x, so it's trading at a discount. XPO gained market share last quarter. Shares ran up 32% year to date before earnings, but expectations were so high, so shares fell back after the report. Still, it's cheap vs. peers and run by superior management.
(A Top Pick May 14/21, Down 42%) Last year has been tough on company with market selloff.
Consumer spending slowing on shipping logistics.
Has sold shares.
It's economically sensitive. A tremendous value creator. Has always been a dirt-cheap stock that he once owned, and will own again, just not now. The money will go more towards FedEx and UPS, though.
It's isn't cheap now, but it is compared to peers like Old Dominion. Management is super, correcting previous problems. This stock is okay here to hold, but wouldn't buy more given the economic backdrop.
Is up 105% this year. She took some profits in September. They're taking market share and trade at 8.5x EBITDA vs. Old Dominion's 18x. That's a huge gap they can close. UPS's struggles worry her, though they are slightly different companies. Is a little nervous ahead of earnings.
The whole freight sector has been terrible for a while, then TFI recently reported a lousy quarter. XPO is -15% in one week, despite reporting okay earnings earlier this month.
