United Parcel Service has significantly outperformed the market since my initial recommendation. Despite recent gains, UPS remains heavily undervalued and continues to offer a high dividend yield.

UPS (UPS) reported earnings 30 days ago. What's next for the stock?
Recently, Zacks.com users have been paying close attention to UPS (UPS). This makes it worthwhile to examine what the stock has in store.
United Parcel wins court approval for $150K driver buyouts amid plans to cut 30,000 jobs and reduce Amazon volumes as it pushes cost cuts and network reshaping.
UPS may be out of the woods regarding a dividend cut, but a 5.6% yield with little to no growth potential isn't ideal. The company expects a recovery in the second half of this year and beyond, but the valuation isn't low enough to get me interested in a turnaround story. UPS Delivered $3.5 billion in cost savings last year through network reconfiguration and Efficiency Reimagined initiatives. Another $3 billion in savings are expected this year.
United Parcel Service is positioned for a multi-year, margin-focused turnaround, shifting from volume growth to operational efficiency and higher-value segments. UPS targets 68% U.S. volume automation by FY2026 and $20B in healthcare revenue, driving structurally lower OPEX and improved profitability metrics. Despite near-term margin headwinds from restructuring and Amazon volume reduction, I expect sequential revenue and high single-digit operating profit growth post-1H 2026.
FDX or UPS: Which delivery giant stands out now? From cost cuts to valuation and growth outlook, the gap between the two is widening.
