FedEx Corp (FDX)

[qineqt]

In the long run, FedEx (FDX) is a story of growing revenues, profitability, and margins both in the U.S. and across the globe. However, in the short run the mild economic situation in the U.S., the troubled European economy, soft demand from emerging economies, and a slashed outlook from one of its peers do not reflect optimism for FDX investors.

Companies like FDX and UPS are bellwethers of the economy. Falling growth rates and volumes for FDX segments show the conditions that the economy is going through. FDX's return has underperformed the S&P 500 since the last three months.
