[QUOTE="upsdawg, post: 82024, member: 2020"] Tie....I agree in that the rules are different for both UPS and Fdx. Fdx as the up and comer in the ground business gets a free ride right now. Time will tell, as you say. RPS/Fed-Ex Ground has some huge hurdles to cross with the outsourcing of their Independant Contractors---maybe when that catches up to them, Wall Street may look differently on them. Fed Ex does a wonderful job spinning their successes--used to be they would pump up the fact that their revenues were increasing, and never made much reference to their profit------kind of the same now---their new ground volume and revenue is increasing so they must be driving UPS out of business because they are stealing marketshare!! The fact that UPS profit for 4th Qtr 2005 was >$1 billion (Monte--what was Fed Ex for their last qtr ending?) should make Wall Street take notice but is doesn't! Time will tell and I will put my money on UPS----UPS Freight is the right way to go--so is Menlo--so Is SCS---I say let Fed Ex have some ground (low revenue--high cost to serve)volume and we will focus on Int'l growth and being the Supply Chain Solutions leader in the industry---a $300 Billion market!!
