Do you guys ever discuss UPS or what
I'm actually kind of wondering... what is going on with UPS? I've seen many people try to prompt discussion, but no responses, so I'm almost wondering about why it went down today.
ACN. Somehow caught it at $138 a few days ago. I waffled between ACN and IBM and went ACN. One of those accidentally high dividend situation like TGT and UPS from a while ago.
Has there been any UPS Discussion? I've seen some people say there should be, and I think those people are correct.
You guys refuse to talk about UPS. Why are you all being so coy about this equity?
I'm almost wondering why UPS Stock is down. Could you guys tell me?

UPS Earnings were good. That's pretty neat. Good for them. Shipping is a cool business.
What are we thinking about UPS earnings tomorrow morning?
I have in the past liked UPS. I will buy two shares.
I have purchased a singluar share of UPS. Why? I like the stock.
UPS will probably do well. Anything requiring gas/transportation right now is expensive, and at the same time indispensable. And then it will tank right after earnings. Tale as old as time.

Chatting it up with my UPS guy yesterday, and he told me they're starting to put A/C in select trucks for some of the high-seniority drivers. This is some bullshit. They're supposed to be maximizing shareholder value, and we already give them shorts. This is probably going to shave a penny off of my quarterly dividends.

I like UPS and PFE, both solid balance sheets with a 6% yield. A little higher risk is BGS with a double digit dividend. XOM at about 4% also worth a look.
They are the only delivery service that can't manage to deliver packages to my house. Every time it ends up at the neighbors. I even created an account to provide instructions to their dumb asses and they still can't get it right. Amazon, USPS, UPS, no problem ever. Fuck em!

Specialized Industrial to build said energy sources Also, Solar & Battery are the fastest to run up. Battery x2 as I bet the UPS systems are insane-o sized - they may just go Lead-acid to cut costs / LiFePO4 if they care about safety. If not Solar, large infrastructure for power takes YEARS to do. Even if AI data center build outs hits a cliff / scale backs, these guys will still be locked in for a decade with contracts.
Maybe if the UPS Store is on its fifth owner and they pay you to take over the business? Otherwise no.
I appreciate your help, I agree with your suggestion in considering option #2 because of its real estate value. Though #2 will cost twice as much as an UPS store, I’m sure the shopping center will sell quicker compared to an UPS. Thank you so much.
Maybe paraphrasing as I understand it. Option #1: Start and run a UPS store as a franchisee Option #2: Buy a shopping center (strip mall?), and manage store rentals Personally, I prefer Option #2 because it is real estate asset. That does not make the shopping mall easy or successful to run, but the asset will be recognized by banks, etc. I don't have any operational experience for either of the options, but can add Option #2 is multi-unit real estate approach and for me, a better risk profile. For Option #2, suggest learning about commercial real estate, and maybe even take a class in the community college which will be a 3-month investment
>returning amazon orders. Literally the only reason I step foot in a UPS store.
Working as a UPS store franchisee is not working for UPS. UPS (small package delivery) is a union job. Everything else is corporate.
A shopping center is a collection of stores. You might find a UPS store inside of a shopping center. If you own a shopping center your direct customers are going to be other business owners.
Thank you for sharing your experience. It helps me to get an idea of what it’s like to work for UPS.
I now firmly believe you have no idea what you're talking about Like I originally said, managing a single UPS store vs an entire shopping center are completely different things that require different sets of skills, vastly different amounts of capital, and specialized knowledge - unless you're just planning on buying then outsourcing everything, which you said you weren't going to do. If you can't even focus on being more specific with what you're trying to accomplish then just open a lemonade stand and work your way up.
Apologies for not providing a direct context. I’m interested in investing in either an UPS store or a shopping center. I as an owner will be working long hours with 2-3 employees. Any expertise based on my context will be appreciated. Thanks.

Worked at a franchised UPS store. Don’t do it, owner tried getting rid of it for years, no takers, got so desperate she tried convincing a 19yo staff employee to get a loan and buy it. Margins are razor thin and you need tons of volume to succeed because 95% of customers are returning amazon orders.
What even is this question? I guess in context with this sub you are thinking about opening up a UPS store or straight up buying or investing into a shopping center, but those are like totally different things besides having walls and doors in common. I'm so confused, like what is even your goal? It's like when a person in r/whatcarshouldibuy asks if they should get a Honda Civic vs a Ford F250 with no context.
Of course man, get with movement man. Pump, Pimp, and blog the price up man. Tell everyone- your pastor, your UPS man, your barber, call aunt Louise in Florida don’t let her say no. See if the grandkids have any money stashed in a cookie jar. Then 4 hours after the IPO is rocking Don’t think, just smash that SELL button. Now you’re getting it.
I imagine that UPS will be taking more of FedEx's and USPS shipping for smaller parcel. They have a new small parcel shipping services that is decently beating USPS. On small parcel, half way across the country, for us it's 30% cheaper than priority mail and 24% cheaper than FedEx. FedEx is going to have to up their game.
Because I’ve got UPS stock
How do we get UPS syndrome?
People use UPS to rook the insurance, impossible shipments get destroyed, no worries
UPS? I contribute to a Roth 401(k) that is unmatched. If you have the same, UPS Prudential funds that I do. You can put it in a fund that's basically the NASDAQ. You don't have to do the target date funds.
UPS is a better company. I didn’t say more profitable but actually just better. Wish that meant something
Have you seen ho much they charge to ship? USPS is expensive, UPS is fucking expensive, FedEx if expensive as fucking fuck… They own 33% of the market, pay their employees less, charge more for shipping…
UPS service went to shit during Covid and jacked their prices up. Then they trashed their old timers like shit and things just got worse. FedEx took on more Amazon shipping during that time and has built up their business by being a little better than UPS in cost and dependability. When A sucks, you go with B even if A has better on time early AM delivery 2/3 of the time (with possibly a 1/3 of packages getting lost for 2+ days)
They pay their drivers like a third of what UPS does. How do you not see the profitability in that.
Did 10 years with UPS, they don’t know shit. FDX blows ass too.
i was eyeing netflix for months but foolishing bought last monday @ approx $79 per share then this monday bought it down to $74.93 & I didn't even do this well meaning was buying during the trading day like catching a falling knife & messed up. Am disappointed in myself because I bought UNH & UPS at lows & have gotten 47% & 18% on those. I feel like a idiot buying netflix last monday but good lesson to be more patient. I read where netflix could goto $69 so am a buyer around $70 or so.

Im thankful to have 3 ISP options in my neighborhood but one of them is AT&T and they burned me for the last time. Our first instance was we moved into an apartment with an contract with them, they shipped our router to the wrong address to begin with. Took a week to get a new one and it was missing the ethernet cable, which AT&T doesn't use the readily available at best buy, walmart, etc. RJ45 cable with standard pinout. Call them back they tell us, we can't use ship out just an ethernet cable. So they ship us another one, another week. Got the cable everything connected, the special port in the wall doesn't work. Takes several schedulings, several days off work, many phone calls to get a tech out to our apartment. They get it fixed, then they tried charging us for their equipment failure and the tech response. Took hours of phone calls to get that removed. Finally got the apartment settled. Took about an entire month of no internet though. Moved to a house, where AT&T had the best fiber prices, sure we will give that a go. We get our internet going pretty quick this time. For whatever reason our Fiber has a lot of drop outs and slowdowns and the essentially required router is a total POS with incredibly weak WIFI. We call and they can't resolve it, but we went through the AT&T fiasco before, so we just live with it. I am however due for a new phone and new phone plan so I figured just bundle with cable. Ohhhh nooo, apparently I am a scammer to them, and they block me from joining and getting on their phone and phone plan. That was it I had enough, if I am too much a scammer for them then I obviously cant use their internet. So I cancel that. I try to return the equipment to the AT&T store literally a block away, but no we have to ship it in. So we ship it in, UPS warns us to keep the receipt because they will try to charge us for not returning it. Lo and behold an entire year later we are getting bills for the router. Im not sure if we are in collections over it or not, but I certainly am never using that scam of a company again. Ill go to starlink, ,dark ages, whatever it takes. Never would I thought I would be begging for Comcast lol.
UPS follow these? What about dividends?
I need some advice... Maybe a dumb question, but I keep coming back to it. Does anyone actually find alpha in podcasts? Fund managers, founders, sell-side analysts all go on podcasts and say things they'd never put in a memo. Damodaran will run a live Tesla valuation on someone's show. Gurley talks his actual AI infra read on Invest Like the Best. The signal density is way higher than what shows up on the sell-side, because the format pulls them into specifics they wouldn't otherwise commit to in writing. My problem is scale. An hour-long episode might have 3 things worth writing down. Listening at 1.5x with a google doc open is fine for one show, but I cant do that across a dozen episodes a week. I've been doing a hacky workflow when I'm building out a thesis (right now I'm digging into last-mile logistics like Veho vs UPS/FedEx/Amazon), I pull every recent podcast where someone with a real opinion weighed in, write down worthwhile claims, and look for who's saying the same thing vs who's contradicting. I usually get the most out of this when two people disagree on the same thing. Honestly more useful than the standard sell-side note grind for finding non-consensus angles. But I genuinely don't know if it's generating alpha or just feels like it. Curious what others do: \- Do you actually act on what you hear on podcasts, or just use it for context? \- Anyone systematically transcribe / search across episodes, or is it pure listening? \- Best example where a specific podcast moved you on a position?
Leave your UPS alone. The UPS and S&P gives you ample cushion to make mistakes, gamble, and withstand misfortune. If your HYSA is better than UPS dividend, then you could sell and move it over there, but you'll pay some amount of taxes for whatever profit might be made. To answer your actual question; split the 35k up. Set aside 1/3rd of it ($11.6k) on the things that give you FOMO so you can get it out of your system. Dont pick just one thing. Recognize you have 38k in pretty conservative areas already. Keep doing research like you have been. I dont know if you're ready for a house; on account of your original post. I think you deep down want to play the stocks lotto and see if you win. The house quest is a lifestyle admission of "I'm going to be slow and steady with several 100,000s of dollars".
They're going to a UPS store by Jamba Juice for a Notary.
I don't know what you make, but let's say you make $100,000, take home $75,000 after taxes. Your $35,000 in cash is about right for your emergency fund, like if you get laid off or have a medical emergency, or whatever shit happens in life. That leaves your investments at $38,000 total, with 37% of that invested in a single stock of the company that is your employer. It would be foolish not to do something about that. Also, the UPS stock price is about the same as it was 10 years ago.
You are missing the point. The point is that you should be more diversified. Both your job and a huge part of your wealth all depend on the same single company. It doesn't matter how good UPS stock is if they are also your employer. If you had that UPS stock as $14,000 in cash right now, you would never (I hope) think it would make sense to buy a single stock with it that is the same as your employer. If something bad happened to UPS, you could get totally screwed. If you want to be financially vulnerable to something very predictable, it is your choice.
You should sell your UPS stock whenever you can. You don't want both your wealth and job all tied to the same company. Suppose the company has some bad finances, has to lay you off. Now you don't have a job and the stock plumets at the same time. Basically, too many eggs in one basket.
Amazon is a serious margin threat, but replacing UPS or FedEx is harder than adding delivery capacity. Their advantage is dense Amazon-originated volume, while the incumbents still handle broader shipper networks, international lanes, returns, regulated shipments, and ugly low-density routes. watch FedEx package volume, revenue per package, operating margin, customer concentration, and capex efficiency. The danger shows up when Amazon starts winning profitable third-party volume, not just moving more of its own boxes.
I would watch margin pressure more than headlines. Amazon entering more third-party logistics matters if it changes pricing power, utilization, and service mix for UPS/FDX. Useful metrics: package volume by segment, revenue per package, operating margin, capex intensity, free cash flow, large customer concentration, and whether management is cutting prices to defend share. The threat is not "Amazon replaces them overnight"; it is Amazon forcing lower returns on the most profitable lanes.
I think this is a bad comparison. They're not in the same space. Amazon delivers more than FedEx and UPS but they lose money for every package they deliver. But these losses are pennies compared to their core business. Amazon makes their money from AWS.
There are no longer use of the anti-trust [anti-monopoly] laws. So a lot of the biggest capitalist want Amazon to gobble up both FedEx and UPS. They all want to be trillionaires and they are willing to completely destroy the USA to achieve their objectives. It's what the people in the USA voted for.
Maybe! Who knows. They don’t really stop Monopolies anymore. I can see Amazon spinning off shipping as a different company and then I think UPS/Fedex would be in trouble.
And that’s part of my question above what metrics are you looking at when you decide that UPS is better than FedEx? Normal PE ratios and free cash flow don’t seem to tell the entire story.
