Deep Dive Into United Parcel Service Stock: Analyst Perspectives (11 Ratings)

United Parcel Service (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UPS#NYSE">UPS</a>) is strategically navigating a challenging economic landscape, focusing intensely on internal efficiencies and cost reduction to bolster profitability and deliver higher returns for investors.
Bank of America analyst Ken Hoexter reiterated the Buy rating on United Parcel Service on Wednesday, with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/UPS/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">a price forecast of $115</a>.
Hoexter described United Parcel Service as one of the three global integrators offering exposure to e-commerce growth, historically trading at mid-to-upper teens Price-to-Earnings (PE) multiples (previously low 20s), supported by mid-20s Return on Invested Capital (ROIC) levels, though recent pressure has emerged.
Also Read:&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46032308/alibaba-expands-ai-cloud-footprint-in-south-korea-with-new-data-hub-launching-in-june" rel="noreferrer noopener">Alibaba Expands AI Cloud Footprint In South Korea With New Data Hub Launching In June</a>
This particular target multiple reflects several key positive developments: the company is anticipated to have moved beyond its trough EPS, is actively concentrating on divesting low-margin operations, and is aggressively implementing measures to reduce its structural costs.
With its emphasis on pricing, e-commerce, and global sourcing, and its tendency to move in line with the broader economy, the analyst maintained a Buy rating, citing the company&#8217;s strong focus on cost and revenue management.
Despite this, Hoexter reduced second quarter of 2025, 2025, and 2026 EPS projections by 5%-8% to $1.52, $7.00, and $7.70, respectively, citing margin pressure from lost de minimis international express volumes, the phased removal of Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) revenues by mid-2026, and a slow macro recovery.
Per Hoexter, United Parcel Service stock has stayed near the lower end of its 15x–21x historical range amid tariff impacts and Amazon volume declines, though the company continues cutting structural costs.
International margin forecast was lowered to 14.2% from 16%, as US-China volumes dropped more than expected; while other routes are helping, the lost lane was among the most profitable.
The removal of the de minimis rule and April tariff hikes drove a major volume drop.
Domestic margin was slightly adjusted to 7.3% from 7.4%, still in line with United Parcel Service&#8217;s view, reflecting mild operating leverage. Hoexter added that the broader demand environment remains subdued.
Hoexter noted that BofA&#8217;s Truck Shipper Survey Demand Indicator, closely correlated with ISM Manufacturing, remains near freight recession levels, with the latest reading at 54.9, just above the 54.2 average of past downturns in 2012, 2015, and 2019, and still below the 60 growth threshold.
The analyst highlighted that since the freight recession began in April 2022, the company&#8217;s shares have lagged, dropping 45%, compared to a 38% gain in the S&amp;P 500 and a 17% rise in FedEx.
Price Action: UPS shares are trading higher by 0.59% to $105.09 at last check Wednesday.

FedEx Stock Is Trading Lower Wednesday: What's Going On?

Logistics and transportation giant FedEx Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FDX#NYSE">FDX</a>) could provide a snapshot of the sector&#8217;s performance when it reports fourth-quarter financial results after the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings">market closes on Tuesday</a>.
Here's a look at the earnings estimates, what experts are saying ahead of the report, and key items to watch.
Earnings Estimates: Analysts expect FedEx to report fourth-quarter revenue of $21.84 billion, down from $22.1 billion in last year's fourth quarter, according to data<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/register?utm_adType=bzprocontent&amp;utm_campaign=14daytrial&amp;utm_ad=0623"> from Benzinga Pro.</a>
The company has beaten analyst estimates for revenue in two straight quarters, while missing estimates in seven of the last 10 quarters overall.
Analysts expect FedEx to report fourth-quarter earnings per share of $5.87, up from $5.41 in last year's fourth quarter. The company has missed analyst estimates for earnings per share in three straight quarters, while beating estimates in six of the last 10 quarters overall.

What Experts Are Saying: Investors are closely watching FedEx, which previously missed EPS estimates and provided weak guidance.
"The combination of the earnings shortfall and downgraded guidance spooked investors, dragging shares down over 10% in the days following the release," Freedom Capital Markets Chief Global Strategist Jay Woods said in a weekly <a href="https://jaywoods.substack.com/">newsletter</a>.
Woods said the loss of a USPS contract contributed to weakened demand and the slashed full-year outlook. Shares also fell after April 2, with concerns on tariffs impacting global shipping volumes.
"The company continues to take steps via cost cuts and segment spinoffs to streamline and turn the stock around. How quickly they execute on this plan and any positive forward guidance will be critical to drive any sustained rebound."
Woods cautions on investors trying to time the stock's moves after earnings with an average post-earnings move of +/- 5.6%.
"Playing this stock into earnings has been a fool's game. Wait for the dust to settle."
FedEx&#8217;s cost initiatives led Bank of America Securities analyst Ken Hoexter to reiterate a Buy rating on the stock ahead of earnings <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/05/45388892/fedex-risks-mount-amid-tariff-pressure-volume-declines-analyst-warns">last month.</a> Hoexter lowered the price target on the stock from $272 to $270.
Hoexter was positive about the company's progress on its cost initiative. However, he&#8217;s cautious about B2B volumes and the impact of tariffs.
Key Items to Watch: FedEx has seen a shift in its financial results. It recently posted several consecutive revenue beats after missing estimates in seven of the prior 10 quarters. The company struggles on earnings, missing EPS estimates in recent quarters despite beating six out of the last 10 overall.
A double beat could provide investors with optimism. The company has struggled to meet or beat estimates for both figures in recent quarters.
United Parcel Service (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UPS#NYSE">UPS</a>), a FedEx rival, posted mixed results. It beat analyst estimates for earnings per share in six of the last 10 quarters, while missing revenue estimates in nine of the last quarters. 
UPS will report second-quarter financial results in late July, with FedEx's report serving as a potential catalyst for UPS shareholders on what's to come.
More important for investors and analysts will be an update on guidance going forward. The company <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/03/44425552/fedex-shares-fall-after-q3-earnings-miss-lower-fy25-revenue-forecast">previously said</a> it expected 2025 revenue to be flat or slightly down year-over-year after a previous guidance of being flat.
The company may choose not to provide forward guidance, which could also decrease shares.
One potential positive for the company could be providing more commentary on a recent partnership with Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>). FedEx will provide shipping help for Amazon on some package deliveries, including in rural areas.
This partnership comes after a large deal between the two companies previously ended. UPS scaled back its relationship with Amazon.
Price Action: FedEx stock is up 0.7% to $226.20 on Monday versus a 52-week trading range of $194.30 to $313.84. FedEx stock is down 17.5% year-to-date and down 11.8% over the last year.
UPS has also seen its stock price fall. Shares are down 19.9% year-to-date in 2025 and down 28.4% over the last year.

Can FedEx Deliver? Q4 Earnings Put Turnaround Hopes To The Test As Market Strategist Looks For 'Any Sustained Rebound'

Frederick Smith, founder and executive chairman of FedEx Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FDX#NYSE">FDX</a>), died from natural causes on Saturday in Memphis, Tennessee. He was 80.
What Happened: Smith&#8217;s death marks the end of an era for the $84 billion global logistics giant he built from a Yale economics thesis into the world&#8217;s largest express transportation company. 
The Mississippi-born entrepreneur launched Federal Express in 1973 with 14 Dassault Falcon jets and $4 million in family inheritance. That first night, the company delivered 186 packages to 25 cities. Today, FedEx moves $2 trillion in goods annually across 220 countries, employing over 500,000 workers and processing 17 million daily shipments.
Smith&#8217;s military background shaped his leadership philosophy. The Marine Corps veteran served two Vietnam tours as a rifle platoon leader and company commander, earning the Silver Star, Bronze Star, and two Purple Hearts. He often credited the Marines with providing his &#8220;business degree.&#8221;
His overnight delivery concept, conceived at Yale in the 1960s, revolutionized global commerce by enabling just-in-time manufacturing and e-commerce growth. The integrated air-ground network model became the industry standard.
Smith stepped down as CEO in 2022 after serving as one of the longest-tenured Fortune 100 leaders, transitioning to executive chairman while maintaining strategic oversight. Current CEO Raj Subramaniam called Smith a &#8220;pioneer who connected the world and shaped global commerce.&#8221;

Why It Matters: Beyond business, Smith co-chaired the World War II Memorial project and National Museum of the Marine Corps campaign. His philanthropic efforts included substantial donations to St. Jude Children&#8217;s Research Hospital and Memphis community development.
Tech leaders mourned Smith&#8217;s passing. Microsoft Corporation CEO Satya Nadella praised his &#8220;vision and relentless drive to innovate.&#8221; Salesforce Inc. CEO Marc Benioff called him &#8220;a gentle, kind, and brilliant giant of business.&#8221;

Wall Street's Most Accurate Analysts Spotlight On 3 Industrials Stocks Delivering High-Dividend Yields

The global market for humanoid robots is set to soar, with a UBS report predicting a significant increase in their numbers by 2050. This forecast is expected to have a substantial impact on various industries.
What Happened: A recent report by UBS, led by analysts in China, suggests that the number of humanoid robots in operation will reach 2 million by 2035 and a staggering 300 million by 2050. This surge is anticipated to address labor shortages and cater to aging populations, <a href="https://www.marketwatch.com/story/300-million-humanoid-robots-are-coming-and-here-are-the-companies-that-will-benefit-04c36ae8?mod=home_ln">MarketWatch</a> reported.
The report projects the market could reach $30 billion to $50 billion by 2035, and soar to between $1.4 trillion and $1.7 trillion by 2050, encompassing expenditures on components, manufacturing, software, data, and services. 
By 2050, 86 million humanoid robots could add $400 billion to global automation revenue and $7 billion to rare-earth revenue, with costs expected to drop over 70% due to scale and supply chain gains.
UBS analyst Phyllis Wang emphasized the potential of humanoid robots for everyday use but noted that their widespread adoption could take over five years.
Several industries are expected to benefit from this projected surge in humanoid robots, including global automation, auto parts, semiconductor, battery companies, and rare-earth refiners. UBS has identified companies such as NVIDIA (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>), Honeywell (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HON#NASDAQ">HON</a>), TSMC (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSM#NASDAQ">TSM</a>), ]Cognex (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CGNX#NASDAQ">CGNX</a>), Amphenol NYSE: (APH) and several Chinese companies as potential beneficiaries.
Even Tesla (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>), which is not rated as a buy by UBS, is expected to benefit from this.

Why It Matters: This prediction aligns with recent developments in the robotics industry. In May 2025, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/05/45495742/nvidia-unveils-ai-tools-for-humanoid-robots-launches-next-tech-era">NVIDIA unveiled AI tools</a> to accelerate humanoid robot development, which were adopted by several robotics developers, while, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/topics/25/05/45710538/elon-musk-says-humanoid-robots-will-start-impacting-countries-gdps-in-4-to-5-years-robot-cars-even-sooner-in-just-1-to-2-years">Elon Musk predicted</a> that humanoid robots would start impacting countries&#8217; GDPs in 4 to 5 years.

Nvidia, Tesla, Honeywell Could Ride $1.7 Trillion Robot Wave As UBS Sees 300 Million Humanoids By 2050

Monopoly maker Hasbro Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HAS#NASDAQ">HAS</a>) announced that it has cut 3% of jobs amid higher tariffs on imports from China. Here&#8217;s a list of five other publicly traded companies that have either reduced their workforce or intend to do so due to the impact of tariffs.
What Happened: After announcing 900 job cuts in December 2023, the Hasbro management told Reuters that it laid off 150 employees or 3% of its workforce in its latest cost-cutting effort on June 18, 2025.
According to its fiscal 2024 annual filing, the company had roughly 4,985 employees globally. The company CEO, Chris Cocks had hinted the same during the first quarter earnings call stating that &#8220;Ultimately, tariffs translate into higher consumer prices, potential job losses as we adjust to absorb increased costs, and reduced profits for our shareholders.&#8221;
He had also said during the same call that the expanded rate on imports from China &#8220;is creating volatility and introducing a range of scenarios for how the year could unfold.&#8221;
Apart from Hasbro, other firms that have reduced their workforce due to tariffs include;
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Stellantis NV (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STLA#NYSE">STLA</a>): The automaker announced temporary layoffs of 900 workers across five U.S. facilities due to production pauses at its Canadian and Mexican plants, directly linked to tariffs announced in April 2025.</li>
</ul>
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Cleveland-Cliffs Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CLF#NYSE">CLF</a>): The steelmaker laid off 1,230 workers, with 600 job cuts at its Dearborn, Michigan, plant and 630 at two iron ore mines in Minnesota, citing falling automotive demand due to tariffs on steel and auto imports.</li>
</ul>
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>United Parcel Service Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UPS#NYSE">UPS</a>): UPS announced expected layoffs of approximately 20,000 workers in 2025, citing "current macro-economic uncertainty" and reduced shipping volumes due to tariffs.</li>
</ul>
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Volvo ADR (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VLVL#OTC">VLVL</a>): The company plans to lay off 550–800 workers at three U.S. facilities over three months, citing market uncertainty and reduced demand due to tariffs.</li>
</ul>
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Deere &amp; Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DE#NYSE">DE</a>): The tractor manufacturer laid off 9 workers at its Ankeny, Iowa, facility, as per a Nation of Change <a href="https://www.nationofchange.org/2025/04/07/over-4000-factory-workers-laid-off-as-trump-tariffs-spark-economic-chaos/">report</a>.

Why It Matters: President Donald Trump&#8216;s reciprocal tariffs are on pause till July 9 while the administration is trying to strike deals with its trading partners.
Trump declared a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/06/45882971/wall-street-eyes-record-highs-as-trump-seals-china-deal-soft-inflation-eases-tariff-jitters">sweeping new trade agreement</a> with China via Truth Social following two days of negotiations in London last week, suggesting major concessions from Beijing and lighter U.S. obligations. 
"Full magnets, and any necessary rare earths, will be supplied, up front, by China," Trump said, adding that the U.S. would reciprocate by allowing Chinese students access to U.S. colleges.
The deal includes a significant tariff shift. The U.S. will continue applying tariffs totaling 55% on selected Chinese imports, while China will impose a 10% tariff rate on U.S. goods.
Price Action: The SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) and Invesco QQQ Trust ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>), which track the S&amp;P 500 index and Nasdaq 100 index, respectively, fell on Tuesday. The SPY was down 0.85% at $597.53, while the QQQ declined 0.98% to $529.08, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a> data.

As the Trump administration&#8217;s tariff policies take effect, making foreign-manufactured goods more expensive for U.S. consumers, investors are keenly focused on Amazon&#8217;s upcoming shopping event. 
Prior reports indicate that Amazon has been proactively engaging its suppliers, urging them to offer significant low, double-digit discounts across a wide array of products, from homeware to consumer electronics. 
Goldman Sachs&nbsp;analysts <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/25/04/45086459/amazon-pressures-suppliers-for-discounts-may-show-tariff-related-costs-on-haul-site" rel="noreferrer noopener">told the Financial Times</a> that the tariffs would affect 6%-12% of Amazon&#8217;s operating margins in 2025.
Several logistics providers and analysts told the Financial Times that Amazon had brought forward shipments and had pivoted to purchasing goods from suppliers in the U.S.
Reportedly, Amazon CEO Andy Jassy <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/management/25/05/45551594/amazon-ceo-andy-jassy-no-slowdown-in-consumer-spending-amid-tariffs" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">did not note</a> any significant changes in consumer spending.
In 2024, JPMorgan analyst Doug Anmuth&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/07/39752347/amazon-prime-day-2024-innovations-set-to-overcome-economic-challenges-ramp-up-sales" rel="noreferrer noopener">projected a total GMV</a> of $12.4 billion for Prime Day, reflecting a 12% increase backed by total retail net sales of $7.9 billion, marking an 11% growth. Notably, $5.8 billion of these net sales are deemed incremental, representing a 13% rise compared to sales without Prime Day.&nbsp;
According to Anmuth, Prime Day&#8217;s financial impact extends beyond the two-day event. The analyst noted that Prime Day drives Prime Member acquisition.
Price Action: Amazon stock was down 0.92% at $214.11 premarket at last check Tuesday.

Amazon Extends Prime Day In July As Tariff-Hit Shoppers Hunt Bargain Deals

United Parcel Service's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UPS#NYSE">UPS</a>) short percent of float has fallen 8.47% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 16.62 million shares sold short, which is 2.27% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 3.18 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.

As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for United Parcel Service 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 United Parcel Service'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>, United Parcel Service's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 3.81%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.

Decoding United Parcel Service's Options Activity: What's the Big Picture?

Stord, the logistics tech startup founded by former Thiel fellow Sean Henry, is stepping up its campaign to challenge Amazon's (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) grip on <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/partner/general/24/05/38962562/navigating-the-e-commerce-landscape-challenges-and-opportunities-on-the-horizon">e-commerce</a> by acquiring United Parcel Service (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UPS#NYSE">UPS</a>) subsidiary Ware2Go.
The deal,<a href="https://www.stord.com/newsroom/stord-acquires-ware2go-from-ups"> announced</a> Monday, brings an additional 2.5 million square feet of fulfillment space into Stord's network and according to<a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/05/19/e-commerce-logistics-stord.html"> CNBC</a>, it strengthens its growing footprint across the U.S., Canada, the U.K., and the Netherlands.

</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Founder Trained by Thiel and Backed by Titans</h2>
Sean Henry launched Stord at just 18 years old after dropping out of the Georgia Institute of Technology to join the Thiel Fellowship, CNBC says. The fellowship is a program offering ambitious young entrepreneurs $100,000 to pursue startups instead of college, according to the <a href="https://thielfellowship.org/">website</a>.
Stord is backed by a high-profile lineup of investors, including Kleiner Perkins, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/12/42366606/peter-thiel-is-a-stanford-grad-but-thinks-college-is-such-a-waste-that-he-offers-100000-to-students-who-quit-compares-education-to-santa">Peter Thiel</a>'s Founders Fund, Franklin Templeton, and Strike Capital. The firms are fueling the company's ambition to "level the playing field" for independent e-commerce brands that struggle to match Amazon's fulfillment speed, Henry told CNBC.
According to Henry, the core problem facing small and mid-size merchants is the lack of scale. Competing with Prime requires a dense, distributed logistics network that most independent brands simply can't afford to build, CNBC reports.
By integrating Ware2Go's third-party delivery services into its platform, Stord aims to offer exactly that: a robust infrastructure that brings fast, efficient shipping within reach for thousands of businesses, the company says.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Expansion Amid Disruption</h2>
Stord's growth strategy is calibrated to thrive in volatile conditions. Henry told CNBC that disruption, from trade policy uncertainty to global events like the pandemic, has historically driven merchants toward platforms like Stord that offer adaptability at scale.
According to the company&#8217;s announcement, the Ware2Go acquisition follows other strategic moves in recent years: the purchase of Pitney Bowes' (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PBI#NYSE">PBI</a>) e-commerce fulfillment division, freight platform ProPack and direct-to-consumer fulfillment provider Fulfillment Works. With each addition, Stord has expanded its capabilities across every stage of the fulfillment cycle, from warehouse storage to last-mile delivery.
Now, with more than 70 partner sites worldwide and a growing tech-integrated operations platform, according to CNBC, Stord is positioning itself as a full-cycle logistics alternative for merchants who want to retain brand control without sacrificing speed or reach.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Building a Defensible Edge Against Amazon</h2>
Stord focuses on more than warehousing, developing proprietary software designed to work in lockstep with its physical operations, CNBC says. This tight integration forms what Henry describes as a strong, defensible edge.
&#8220;If we are the one who's building our own technology in harmony with our operations, from every stage all the way through the cart… it's gonna be really hard for others to keep up,&#8221; he told CNBC.
As e-commerce continues to evolve, and more consumers demand fast, reliable shipping from independent brands, Stord's expanding network may prove to be the backbone that helps them compete. Backed by elite investors and driven by a founder with a blueprint for disruption, the company benefits from industry volatility, as brands increasingly turn to flexible platforms that can weather uncertainty and scale with demand.
