[QUOTE="FAVREFAN, post: 465944, member: 13078"] Not going to check all your numbers, I lived it, don't care now. But one correction right off the bat my friend.....Day one close was $76 7/8(UPS)....that was before the decimal system if you can remember. Fedex was chump change per share back then.....around $40....so if you go from November '99 'till now......it's not even a contest....they're up around 45% and we're down around 37%. November '99 'till now. Just the facts. I love what UPS does for me, provides much for me, but our stock was a horrible investment even before this economic downturn. I was lucky to be in before it hit the street, because those guys got killed unless they got out on that spurt up to the mid-upper 80's for that very short time. You got it right on the dividend though, comes close to covering inflation over the long haul. [/QUOTE]
