[QUOTE="moreluck, post: 82518, member: 1246"] Hilary Kramer's Daily Picks & Pans <TT>Go Brown to Go Global ([URL="http://finance.aol.com/usw/quotes/charts?dr=999&sym=ups&exch=USA&state=default)"][COLOR=#0000ff]http://finance.aol.com/usw/quotes/charts?dr=999&sym=ups&exch=USA&state=default)[/COLOR][/URL] I am constantly asked about _UPS_ ([URL="http://finance.aol.com/usw/quotes/quotesandnews?sym=ups&exch=USA)"][COLOR=#0000ff]http://finance.aol.com/usw/quotes/quotesandnews?sym=ups&exch=USA)[/COLOR][/URL] . I think it's because you see UPS everywhere especially the men and women in brown and so we wonder how much money all those deliveries must be bringing in each day. Or maybe it's that we are all buying more on-line than ever before and those packages are delivered by UPS. All of those observations point to a growing enterprise and a profitable company. In 2005, UPS made $6.1 billion in operating profit and delivered 3.75 billion packages. But the real reason I'm emphatically recommending UPS is that the company is a bulls-eye way to play China. You don't have to buy a Chinese stock to benefit from the growing Chinese market and UPS is emerging as a leader in exporting to China. The company even has an "intra-China express service" that serves cities within China. UPS was smart to develop an international trade division that includes freight forwarding, customs brokerage, and consulting services. But the company was even smarter in directing these services into the exploding Chinese market. UPS must remain focused on growing internationally. Domestically, it has to continue dominating ground traffic as well as fighting FedEx for a share of the overnight market. With domestic profits providing a base and international profits driving growth, we're going to see UPS's profits continue to expand and benefit its shareholders. Remember, just as you and I see UPS trucks everywhere and experience their quality service, UPS is replicating this model all over the world, expanding those truck fleets seemingly exponentially. And for those of you that like to invest in green companies, UPS just announced that it has placed an order for 50 new-generation hybrid electric delivery trucks and will also acquire 4,100 low-emission conventional vehicles this year. Type of stock: Even if fuel prices start to rise again, UPS is still well positioned to achieve increasing growth because consumers shop online, and because UPS is entrenched in the Asian business and consumer market. Not much risk here -- and the upside is a stock that will climb higher each year whileyou enjoy a 2 percent annual dividend. Price target: By the end of 2007, I think UPS should be a $100 stock. Yes, that's $25 higher than today. </TT> [/QUOTE]
