Forbes Gives Bad News For UPS

Amazon spends a quarter of UPS's total gross revenue on shipping. Extremely naive to think they can't build a full delivery network themselves....as long as they have wall streets backing. This isn't a DHL type issue. DHL had to stir up business. Amazon is their own best customer. As long as the post office and UPS handles whatever volume they get, Amazon can continue to build the network and let UPS/USPS pick up the over flow. Exactly what they did with cloud service. Look up cloud computing and Amazon.

We are helping them and giving them the ability to build their delivery network. Once the system is large enough and efficient enough, say goodbye to amazon boxes and other companies packages....amazon will be delivering it.

FEDEX made the right call. Take the pain now and cut them off. UPS, as we all know only cares about today, not tomorrow. UPS worried about this quarter only.

Do you need an air compressor or tire gauge

I drive.
In the history of retail there are always rivals that come along and disrupt the disruptors. I don't believe Amazon will take over the world. Although it feels like they just might.
