[QUOTE="AKCoverMan, post: 1563006, member: 17867"] It was an excellent quarter. The company was bright enough to spend money on making sure we had enough people and equipment to handle peak this year. The extra spending cut into the profits but we still made a three billion dollar profit in 2014. We could have not spent so much and fell on our keister again like last peak when Amazon opened the floodgates.. with no service guarantee in effect all the service failures are still money in the bank so we could have put a better profit number up by not spending as much. We chose not to and I think that was right thing to do. We handled a record number of packages in the quarter. Revenue is flowing into the company like mad. And average pieces per day keeps going up quarter after quarter. Every quarter. So the Wall Street sky-is-falling stories about our "disappointing" fourth quarter are just writers looking for something to write about and any big price dip in the stock is simply a good time to buy.
