Nice Stock Gain

[scratch]

UPS Stock is up to $196.06 as I write this. Largely due to US taxpayers having to take the burden from the company to pay for the Central States Pension Plan.

When it gets this high doesn't it usually split?

When it gets this high doesn't it usually split?

UPS hasn't had a stock split since it went public in 1999. While having twice the shares sounds nice, the dividends per share would just be cut in half. Being off the hook for $6.4B propping up the failing Central States Fund is seen as the biggest factor plus increased revenue from the pandemic. I think there are too many shares for a stock split. I have a measly 144 shares I bought for $25 apiece in the IPO in one of my IRAs.

At one time I had 2000 shares. I sold them all when UPS hit 80 bucks a share. Shortly after that it fell to around 40 bucks a share so I thought I had made the right move. I had paid like 27 bucks a share for them. Now I kind of wish I had hung on to at least half of them. Then again what would I do with even more money ?

Best contract ever.....

Cheaper labor, more work, record company profits, forced to work premium days for less pay


But they got pension money to coat their pockets with.

And don't forget about not making service on the air savers. There's no excuse for that right now

It's good buisness.

The pandemic profitability boost will be over the day contract negotiations begin. Can't give the union a justification for any real gains.
