[QUOTE="freeloader, post: 264092, member: 12163"] I don't think there's any mishandling of profits going on. UPS reinvests in itself heavily and management makes it known their financial decisions are long term. However, the stock has been stale every since the IPO. Management won't exercise their options (to buy UPS stock at the price 5 yrs ago) because the price is the same as it was 5 years ago. Net income is higher than ever and at a steady 10-12% of revenue so the wealth is still being shared. Before the IPO is when management really made out on options because the stock price was manipulated. Then the IPO happened and everyone's stock doubled, and flat-lined from then on out. I only wish the employee thrift plan was still around. I was making 10-20% a year on my contributions, then UPS got rid of the thrift plan and converted it all into stock. Stock that has been stale since the IPO. Why UPS stock has been stale I haven't a clue. [/QUOTE]
