ups stock

At one time I owned 2,000 shares. I sold it when it hit $80. I now wish I would have kept maybe 500 shares but that's water over the dam. I think I paid $27 for it so I didn't do too bad. Its only money

Thrift plan rollover?

You obviously don't understand how the stock market works then.

I do not think you do either! You, (and 99.9% of stock owners) are not "buying a part of a company," or "ownership of a company." You are buying "something" that you think someone else (at a later date) will pay more for than what you paid! Please take a moment to think about what I just said!

The other .1% are dividend investors.

But the only way anyone pays more for it is if that company has success....so yeah you selling for higher depends on how the company does.

I've been saying it for 30 years. Think of the money we could make if upper management had a clue.

Don’t try to time the market, not with a 5% discount and generous dividend.

Different story if you’re close to retirement.

Management sick-out today. Operations slowing to a crawl. Management was sent home due to fast spreading mania illness. They were told to bathe in Benjamin's until it passes.

Down over $15 from its ATH just like that.

Driven down by people who don't realize that the capital expenditures that have them spooked will pay off in the long run

They just had another press release saying they bought some new planes. You would think it was a contract year or something.

They announced 12 billion in spending over the next few years.

Good thing they are getting a huge tax break.

The new planes have about two and half more times of cargo weight capacity that they are buying
