[QUOTE="tieguy, post: 75233, member: 1912"] I am surprised that we appear to have two different fdx employees here who seem to be oblivious to all the volume they have lost to UPS this year. This past peak I picked up approximately 5000 pieces of air a day from two large shippers who shipped all their air with fdx last year. When I say a day I mean 7 days a week since both shippers worked evey weekend in december prior to peak. We have a large fdx building in hagerstown maryland that has been open for approximately 9 months and can't touch any of the large shippers in that area. In fact we did a service lane enhancement for the entire hagerstown, frederick, chambersburg , harrisburg area that has resulted in a significant increase in volume for the entire area. coward I quoted press releases from wednesday of last week that stated fdx grew its overall volume by 3 percent for the quarter primarily driven by an increase in international volume. Domestic volume growth was listed as 1 percent. Last year and the year before you were hitting domestic growth results of 10 to 20 percent per quarter. This growth was the catalyst for your stocks growth last year. Your latest earnings report sounds like the kind UPS put out last year that was getting yawns from investors. Record profits , good international growth, little domestic growth. [/QUOTE]
