Consensus
Mixed
Valuation
Fair Value
WEAK BUY

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.

Transportation
DON'T BUY
Trades at 17x forward earnings.

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

Transportation
BUY

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.

Transportation
DON'T BUY

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. 

Transportation
DON'T BUY

He prefers FedEx which isn't doing that well now. UPS pays a 4.4% dividend, but that isn't enough reason to buy it. He needs to see real earnings momentum.

Transportation
SELL

Sold it because of the slowing economy, and the company suffers from higher costs and lower volumes.

Transportation
SELL

He just sold it. He was recommending this until their earnings report proved him wrong. Their margins were 8% vs. 13% historically. He's humbled. It will have to fall a lot before he considers buying it back.

Transportation
BUY ON WEAKNESS

She'd buy at $125. They've had to deal with a lot including the strike and inflation. Margins are under pressure from Amazon, but $125/share is the safe pre-pandemic PE and collecting a 5% dividend? She can live with that.

Transportation
BUY ON WEAKNESS

Loves it. The market is wrong. Maybe the numbers next week won't be great, but he would buy on any weakness.

Transportation
BUY

Reports next week and given how the consumer remains strong, that report should not disappoint. They enjoy a duopoly with FedEx.

Transportation
BUY

The labour agreement expires on July 31. He isn't concerned, but is concerned about the potential damage to the wider economy. We don't need this at this point in the recovery. UPS manages its balance sheet well, a better choice than FedEx.

Transportation
BUY
Fedex vs. UPS (FedEx just reported a strong quarter)

Owns UPS instead, and it's good that FedEx that both are focusing on profitability. She prefers UPS for having more density in its ground business and more tied to e-commerce which will remain strong. UPS is exposed to Amazon, which some feel is a risk, but she doesn't anymore, because Amazon can't invest more in infrastructure anymore.

COMMENT
Fedex vs. UPS (FedEx just reported a strong quarter)

How long can both keep cutting jobs until they can't cut anymore? FedEx retained pricing power with ground revenues up 7%. Interesting. How long can they maintain this edge as we enter a recession.

Transportation
DON'T BUY
It reports Tuesday. They have unionizing issues. If you believe e-commerce will re-accelerate, buy FedEx instead.
