[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 3989442, member: 24302"] If you noticed, they're delivering 26% of their OWN freight, and FedEx total revenue is down 2%. So how much will FedEx revenue be down when they've grown enough to deliver all of their freight? How much will it be down when they decide to become a competitor for more than just their own freight? FedEx didn't destroy UPS. But both companies have demonstrated they can coexist and be profitable. Are you saying a well financed company that builds a comparable infrastructure, makes the right moves, can't come in and compete for those profits? And if they do, and are successful, how will FedEx respond to maintain profits? You can bet it'll take from it's employees at some point because they put profit above all else. Won't happen next year, but the way Amazon is growing don't be surprised if it's within the next 10. They may end up being to this industry and many others what Wal-Mart was to countless competitors.
