United Parcel Service, Inc. (NYSE:UPS)

Brown can do great things for your portfolio.

Superior margin for the industry, which the company chooses to give the investor as a superior dividend.

as economy grows, so will this stock

As the U.S. Postal Service raises prices and pulls back on service, UPS is perfectly positioned to benefit. It's cheaper than FedEx and more reliable than USPS, plus it's Amazon's carrier of choice.

With USPS cutting back and raising prices, will be a virtual monopoly with UPS in a few years.

Better than FedEx!

improving economy

Americans will have to turn to companies like UPS and Fed Ex to pick up the slack left by the hefty cuts being made by the United States Postal Service.

Right before I saw the FedEx video on YouTube of the guy hurling the monitor over the fence I received terrible service at the local FedEx Kinkos. The dude there then tried to charge me $140 for a 2 day package until I told him I had a corporate account which made it $53. Seems like they have been headed down a bad road and when you combine that with even crummier service to come by the USPS I am going to hitch my cart to UPS.

Not as cheap as FDX on paper but real Solid ROI and much better yield. Gimme some UPS for the long haul for this volatile market.

Shift to online shopping benefits shipping companies.

As more people cyber-shop, more stuff's gotta get shipped, and UPS has got a wide moat.

Solid brand. Plenty tough union made as the Waco Brothers' song goes. Combined with FedEx this is part of a Monopoly Play for my Monsters of Greatness Fund.

Great value here. I actually bought it at a higher level, but I'm comfortable because UPS is well-run, has good margins, and pays a great dividend. It's current malaise is due to fears of recession and, paradoxically, high fuel prices. Fuel prices are now falling, business is expanding, and UPS will fly us to the moon.

Amazon stock is booming. The post office is dying. And yet UPS stock is tanking? Looks like a buying opportunity to me.

What can brown do for you… my dad was watching a documentary on how UPS worked on the Discovery channel, and it sparked my thinking… they’re basically the dominant company in a high capital business! The more efficient they get, the more retailers will get disrupted… and the more we can get to the “buy all non-perishables on-line” model (subject to a later blog). They pay a 3.2% dividend as of today, which makes sense for the business they are.

Over 3% dividend paying stock

UPS is well-positioned to benefit from the increase in online shopping. UPS is often the default mode of shipping from online retailers.

plastic trucks! I dont know how soon this is going to help cut back their fuel costs but i like where their heads at. http://bit.ly/mywpLK
