UPS is currently valued at its lowest earnings multiple since it went public. Recent earnings have disappointed because fuel prices have risen and they have a lag in their fuel surcharges, so thus, they didn't recoup the cost. Now, fuel prices have declined, at least for the short term. That works in UPS' FAVOR, which means a positive earnings surprise next quarter.
