The renewed deal builds on a 20-year collaboration and includes a modernization of two warehouses in France, covering 39,000 square meters. The upgraded facilities will support distribution to 160 countries and feature automation and advanced systems to handle highly regulated medical products.
"This next phase continues our shared commitment to innovation and efficiency," said Vincent Ricci, GXO's managing director in France. He noted the partnership began in 2004 and has evolved through continuous improvements to bioMérieux's supply chain.

The new setup includes six temperature zones and a unified warehouse management system. GXO will oversee inbound and outbound logistics, while bioMérieux manages direct fulfillment and fast-moving storage operations.
The enhanced logistics model is designed to improve order accuracy, increase visibility, and ensure compliance with healthcare regulations. GXO's broader healthcare services also include emergency deliveries and inventory management across Europe and the U.S.
In France, GXO operates more than 65 logistics sites and employs nearly 10,000 people. It ranks as the country's second-largest logistics provider, serving clients in e-commerce, retail, consumer goods, and tech.
Recently, GXO Logistics was <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/05/g45514088/toolstation-selects-gxo-as-its-logistics-partner-in-the-netherlands" rel="noreferrer noopener">selected</a> by Toolstation to manage its logistics operations in the Netherlands—marking the first time the fast-growing retailer has outsourced logistics in the country.

Experts in banking and financial systems, analysts specialize in reporting for specific stocks or defined sectors. Their comprehensive research involves attending company conference calls and meetings, analyzing financial statements, and engaging with insiders to generate what are known as analyst ratings for stocks. Typically, analysts assess and rate each stock once per quarter.
Some analysts publish their predictions for metrics such as growth estimates, earnings, and revenue to provide additional guidance with their ratings. When using analyst ratings, it is important to keep in mind that stock and sector analysts are also human and are only offering their opinions to investors.

The Analyst Verdict: FedEx In The Eyes Of 20 Experts

Bank of America Securities analyst Ken Hoexter reiterated the Buy rating on FedEx Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FDX#NYSE">FDX</a>), <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/FDX/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">lowering the price forecast from $272 to $270.</a>
Hoexter noted that FedEx is progressing steadily on its structural cost initiatives, including Network 2.0, DRIVE, and Tri-Color.
However, international B2B volumes in F4Q25 faced headwinds.
Also Read:<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/03/37783932/amazon-and-fedex-rekindle-talks-reportedly-explored-new-collaborative-opportunities" rel="noreferrer noopener"> Amazon And FedEx Rekindle Talks? Reportedly Explored New Collaborative Opportunities</a>
While March volumes were stable, April weakened and May saw sharp Trans-Pacific declines as customers relied on existing inventories and waited for tariff relief, the analyst writes.
Following the 90-day U.S.-China reprieve, FedEx estimates the de minimis tariff on Chinese retailers has dropped to ~50% from 168%, though reporting complexity has increased, and FedEx is now prioritizing capacity utilization over pricing.
Hoexter highlighted that FedEx has partnered with Amazon.com, Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) to handle select large and heavy parcels, offering a cost advantage over UPS.
The deal will be financially beneficial for FedEx, with higher-than-average yields and weights in its domestic Ground segment.
The arrangement utilizes FedEx's nationwide capabilities for difficult deliveries, though Amazon will remain a smaller customer, the analyst writes.
The analyst lowered estimated EPS for 4Q25, FY25, and FY26 by 9%, 3%, and 1%, respectively, now projecting $5.55, $17.70, and $20.75. These were previously expected at $6.10, $18.25, and $20.90.
The price target now sits near the low end of the 12.5x–18.5x range due to macroeconomic pressures.
Price Action: FedEx shares are trading lower by 0.49% to $231.81 at last check Tuesday.

In total, that's more than 50 different stocks bought and disclosed by Greene in the latest filing. Based on the purchase range of $1,001 to $15,000, this would make the transaction range over $50,000 and up to more than $800,000.

Why It's Important: Members of Congress are allowed to buy and sell stocks as long as they properly disclose the transaction.
The process has drawn scrutiny from the public and retail investors as members of Congress could have inside information and time their trades accordingly. Committee assignments in particular, often draw red flags from investors.
Greene serves on the House Committee on Oversight and Accountability and the House Committee on Homeland Security with several subcommittee appointments. The congresswoman's past trade in technology and cybersecurity stocks has drawn attention with her role within Homeland Security.
Greene&#8217;s past trades of Palantir Technologies and a<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44255172/marjorie-taylor-greene-buys-more-bitcoin-etf-shares-ahead-of-trumps-strategic-reserve-executive-order"> Bitcoin ETF </a>have drawn criticism along with the timing of her trades, as she is a close ally to President Donald Trump. 
When asked previously about buying stocks earlier this year that soared days later after Trump announced a pause to tariffs, Greene<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/politics/25/04/44852406/marjorie-taylor-greene-brushes-off-stock-buying-criticism-says-portfolio-manager-bought-the-dip"> brushed aside the criticism.</a>
&#8220;I think that criticism is laughable. President Trump has been talking about tariffs for decades,&#8221; Greene told reporters when asked about the trades at a recent town hall event in Georgia in a clip <a href="https://x.com/unusual_whales/status/1912456434081480777" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">shared </a>by Unusual Whales. The congresswoman used the opportunity to boast about her stock performance, which ranked her as one of the top trading members of Congress in 2024.
&#8220;I don&#8217;t place my buys and sells," Greene said, citing an agreement she has with her portfolio manager, who handles all the buying and selling of stocks. &#8220;He did a great job. Guess what he did. He bought the dip. And that&#8217;s what anybody that has financial sense does."
Greene also said her portfolio manager did not have inside information, everything was public and a potential tariff pause wasn&#8217;t a secret.
Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) has reintroduced legislation that would ban members of Congress from trading or holding individual stocks.
The bill is known as the Preventing Elected Leaders from Owning Securities and Investments Act, or PELOSI Act based on the first letter of each of the main words. The name takes aim at the congresswoman and former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.).  
&#8220;Members of Congress should be fighting for the people they were elected to serve — not day trading at the expense of their constituents,&#8221; Hawley&nbsp;<a href="https://www.hawley.senate.gov/hawley-reintroduces-pelosi-act-to-ban-congress-from-trading-stocks/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">said</a>. &#8220;Americans have seen politician after politician turn a profit using information not available to the general public.&#8221;
Hawley said the bill will help &#8220;restore Americans&#8217; trust in our nation&#8217;s legislative body.&#8221;
Hawley&#8217;s bill is being reintroduced as President&nbsp;Donald Trump&nbsp;<a href="https://time.com/7280114/donald-trump-2025-interview-transcript/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">said&nbsp;</a>he would support such a ban.
&#8220;Well, I watched Nancy Pelosi get rich through insider information, and I would be okay with it. If they send it to me, I would do it,&#8221; Trump told TIME.
Trump said he would sign the ban if the bill passes Congress.
While Pelosi makes headlines for her trades, it&#8217;s important to remember that<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/politics/25/04/44852406/marjorie-taylor-greene-brushes-off-stock-buying-criticism-says-portfolio-manager-bought-the-dip" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">&nbsp;it is both Republican</a>&nbsp;and Democratic members of Congress who are profiting from buying and selling stocks and options while in office, with some trades coming with questionable timing or having a connection to committees they serve on.
In 2024, a list of the top-performing traders in Congress included six Republicans and four Democrats.

Unpacking the Latest Options Trading Trends in FedEx

FedEx's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FDX#NYSE">FDX</a>) short percent of float has fallen 3.37% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 3.78 million shares sold short, which is 1.72% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 1.51 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<h3>FedEx Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1746471625_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for FedEx has declined since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to rise in the near-term but traders should be aware that less shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing FedEx's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, FedEx's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 3.72%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">UPS in Talks to Introduce Humanoid Robots to Its Network</h2>
Figure AI was founded in 2022 by serial entrepreneur Brett Adcock, who previously launched Vettery and Archer Aviation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ACHR#NYSE">ACHR</a>). Adcock&#8217;s<a href="https://www.brettadcock.com/bio"> bio</a> says that his goal is to create a fully autonomous humanoid robot that can safely, efficiently, and intelligently perform a wide range of physical tasks that are currently repetitive, physically draining, or simply undesirable for human workers.
According to Bloomberg, the company's latest model, Figure 02, features integrated cabling, a torso battery, and real-time computing power using Nvidia RTX GPU-based modules. It's outfitted with 6 RGB cameras, directional microphones, speakers, and a custom-built conversational AI developed in collaboration with OpenAI. Figure 02 also boasts 16 degrees of freedom in its redesigned hands, which allow it to lift and maneuver up to 55 pounds. These capabilities are being actively tested in real-world settings, including on the factory floor at BMW.

While both UPS and rival FedEx (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FDX#NYSE">FDX</a>) have incorporated autonomous systems like sorting and ground robots into their operations, neither has implemented humanoid robots until now.
Bloomberg<a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-02-23/bezos-nvidia-join-openai-microsoft-in-funding-humanoid-robot-startup-figure-ai"> reported</a> last year that UPS and Figure AI began discussions in 2023 and resumed them in early 2025 as Figure&#8217;s latest model reached new performance milestones. If an agreement is finalized, UPS will become one of the first global logistics companies to pilot humanoid labor at an industrial scale.
This move comes as UPS is undergoing a significant restructuring in response to declining package volumes, particularly from major clients like Amazon (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>), and economic pressures stemming from international tariffs. According to<a href="https://www.reuters.com/markets/us/ups-reports-fall-first-quarter-revenue-2025-04-29/"> Reuters</a>, UPS plans to cut 20,000 jobs and close 73 facilities by June, aiming to save $3.5 billion through workforce reductions, automation, and asset sales. These measures are part of UPS's strategy to adapt to shifting market dynamics and enhance operational efficiency.

AI and robotics are the future, and I am grateful to have the support of investors and partners who believe in being at the forefront."
Figure's mission has always been about filling the gap where human labor is in short supply or at risk. The startup<a href="https://www.figure.ai/"> says</a> it is building toward a future where robots can work side-by-side with humans, or even independently, across warehouses, manufacturing floors, and homes.
Figure AI is not alone in the humanoid race since competitors like Optimus, created by Tesla (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>), and Agility Robotics' Digit are also vying to dominate this emerging sector. However, with backing from the world's top AI labs, chipmakers, and billionaires, Figure AI is showing that humanoid labor is no longer a sci-fi dream but a near-future solution to real-world industrial problems.

<h3>About FedEx</h3>
FedEx pioneered overnight delivery in 1973 and remains the world's largest express package provider. In its fiscal 2024, which ended in May, FedEx derived 47% of revenue from its express division, 37% from ground, and 10% from freight, its asset-based less-than-truckload shipping segment. The remainder came from other services, including FedEx Office, which provides document production/shipping, and FedEx Logistics, which provides global forwarding. FedEx acquired Dutch parcel delivery firm TNT Express in 2016, boosting its presence across Europe. TNT was previously the fourth-largest global parcel delivery provider.
