That raises the pressure for Atlanta-based UPS, which is spending billions of dollars to modernize its network, to meet its targets during this year’s key winter holiday season. “There is pressure on management to execute at a high level during the peak,” Cowen and Co. analyst Helane Becker said in a client note.
