| Comment | 65.100 | Philip Doyle | Very profitable company with a strong franchise. Global distribution network is very hard for competition to replicate. Highly cyclical and depends on the level of shipments, which is dependent on the economy. | 2010-08-20 | |
| WEAK BUY | 67.480 | David Baskin | FedEx (FEX-N) and United Parcel Service (UPS-N) are both viewed as barometers for the general economy. He prefers FedEx of the two. Gross margins and expense ratios indicate they are better run company. | 2010-05-10 | |
| SELL | 51.430 | Norman Levine | A reflection of the US economy because they ship the goods. Thinks the recovery has been ahead of itself. If you have made some money he would take some profits. | 2009-06-08 | |
| PARTIAL BUY | 47.630 | Jim Huang | Great company and is run very efficiently and stock is not very expensive. Very much tied to the US economy. Unfortunately, there will be more bad news over the next few quarters. Be patient and spread your purchases. | 2009-01-22 | |
| PAST TOP PICK | 63.080 | John O'Connell, CFA | (A Top Pick July 31/07. Down 14.9%.) Down partly due to fuel prices and a slowing economy. Strong balance sheet. | 2008-07-31 | |
| PAST TOP PICK | 70.610 | John O'Connell, CFA | (A Top Pick Mar 30/07. Up 3% including dividends.) Great balance sheet and continues to grow its revenues very well. Passing on higher fuel costs to customers. Likes its global platform and the play on global trade. Long-term hold. | 2008-03-03 | |
| PARTIAL BUY | 75.520 | Pat Naccarato | An outstanding franchise. There are only 2 global companies, FedEx (FDX-N) and UPS that dominate the movement of goods. These are companies that you want to continually buy on a regular basis. | 2007-07-17 | |
| DON'T BUY | 70.650 | Brian Acker, CA | Has always been overvalued to him. Probably one of the most well run companies that there is. His model price is $65.01, an 8% negative differential. | 2007-05-24 | |
| DON'T BUY | 71.930 | David Burrows | Very high quality and well-run business, but is not participating in the strong market. If looking for transportation, look at Canadian Pacific (CP-T), which benefits from international trade. | 2007-04-24 | |
| TOP PICK | 70.100 | John O'Connell, CFA | Struggling because about 65% of revenues come from North American local shipping, which is economically sensitive. Trades at around 16 X earnings. Earnings are growing fantastically. Good price. Business is growing very rapidly. | 2007-03-30 | |
| DON'T BUY | 73.630 | David Baskin | Prefers FedEx. | 2007-01-10 | |
| TOP PICK | 78.270 | John O'Connell, CFA | A play on global trade as well as increased online shopping. Long-term hold. | 2006-11-27 | |
| BUY on WEAKNESS | 75.270 | David Driscoll | Is a little rich right now, but not too bad if you are interested in buying at $72. | 2006-02-23 | |
| DON'T BUY | 66.860 | Norman Levine | The biggest problem for them has been energy prices which has been hurting them quite a bit. The ability to raise prices and put on surcharges is somewhat limited because it is a very competitive business. Long term they are the best package business in the air and on the ground. | 2005-09-20 | |
| TOP PICK | 71.410 | Francis Gannon | Has a AAA rated balance sheet. A great way to play China. 70% of their sales were in China. | 2004-07-23 | |
| WEAK BUY | 61.650 | Brad Willock | Excellent company. High margins. Stock has basically moved sideways for the last year. Higher fuel costs, union issues. Could be a good buy if economy turns higher. | 2003-05-23 | |
| WAIT | 54.438 | Richard Stone | Premium built on expected on-line sales. Didn't happen | 2000-12-20 |
