United Parcel Service Inc. said late Friday its board of directors increased the logistics company's quarterly dividend by 5.5% to $96 cents a share. The dividend is payable March 12 to shareholders of record on Feb. 26. UPS has either increased or maintained its dividend for nearly 50 years, the company said in a statement. Shares of UPS were flat in the extended session Friday after ending the regular trading day down 0.8%.

Shares of FedEx Corp. sank 3.0% and United Parcel Service Inc. shed 1.3% in midday trade Friday, bucking the gains seen in the broader market, after fellow transportation company XPO Logisitics Inc. said its largest customer is curtailing about two-thirds of its postal injection business. XPO declined to comment on who the customer was, but J.P. Morgan analyst Brian Ossenbeck said the loss of business is likely Amazon.com Inc. taking capacity in-house. Ossenbeck said he could see FedEx and UPS shares "react negatively on the implication that Amazon is reducing third party transportation exposure." The shares were the biggest decliners in the Dow Jones Transportation Average , which rose 0.3%, compared with the Dow Jones Industrial Average's 350-point, or 1.4% gain. Meanwhile, XPO's stock tumbled 16%.
The backing from Amazon will bolster Michigan-based Rivian’s plans to bring an electric truck to market in late 2020. Rivian remains in talks with General Motors Co. about the largest U.S. automaker making an investment or collaborating another way, people familiar with the matter said. Chief Executive Officer R.J. Scaringe said in his first interview since reports of Rivian’s talks with Amazon and GM surfaced earlier this week that he was seeking companies that could help the electric-vehicle maker grow.
As the shock begins to wear off following Monday's announcement of the impending demise of regional less-than-truckload (LTL) carrier New England Motor Freight, Inc., (NEMF), LTL carriers serving the country's most densely populated regions have begun to adjust to life without it. There is no shortage of carriers in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic that NEMF called home for nearly 42 years. At this time, one would be hard-pressed to find a carrier not being inundated with phone calls and e-mails from NEMF customers blindsided by the stunning disclosure that the carrier and 10 related entities would file for bankruptcy and wind down the business.
PwC has said this is a roughly $5 trillion annual market, which fits with Amazon’s love of attacking massive pools of spending. There have been developments in recent weeks that might be random data points or hints of Amazon’s master plan in transportation and logistics, if it has one. Amazon and General Motors Co. are discussing an investment in an electric truck company. Amazon was among a group of recent investors in autonomous vehicle startup Aurora Innovation Inc. Last month, Amazon said it would test package deliveries by small robots in a Seattle-area neighborhood.

United Parcel Service Inc. says it will ship 89 million flowers for the holiday this year. UPS transports them through the Miami International Airport to their recipients in less than two days. U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents inspect and sort the boxes for fast clearance before flower distributors pick them up and get them to delivery. According to the National Retail Federation, U.S. consumers are expected to spend a record $20.7 billion for Valentine’s Day this year, up from $19.6 billion a year ago.
Following the impressive performance of transports in Q4 and the subsequent dividend hikes, we believe stocks in the space should grace one's portfolio.
The projection, an increase of one million from the number of flowers delivered in 2018, means about nine million pounds of blooms will crisscross the globe in time for Cupid’s big day. To ensure these precious flowers arrive at peak freshness, UPS shepherds the shipments from colorful growing fields in Latin America through the Miami International Airport, where UPS is one of the largest air cargo carriers, to final recipients in less than two days.

Boeing's 747 jumbo jet, an aircraft that democratized global air travel in the 1970s but fell behind modern twin-engine passenger jets, has bounced back from near death to mark its 50-year flying anniversary on Saturday, thanks to a cargo market boom fueled by online shopping. Boeing's "Queen of the Skies" is the world's most easily recognized jetliner with its humped fuselage and four engines. It is now enjoying a second, perhaps less glamorous life, as a cargo mule for companies like United Parcel Service Inc.
