Well, IMHO, Mr. Smith is showing his age. Certainly on top of the topic of the day, but seems, .....tired. I've seem him look better. We're all getting older, and FS is no exception, but this was the first time it was as obvious to me.

With Fred getting old will someone buy FedEx? Private equity has been rumored to be interested, and possibly even Deutsche Post (DHL). It would be a great way for DHL to get a credible foothold in the US. We better hope that the union is keeping an open mind and considering ALL future options an associated implications.

Cashcow,
Please report to the collection site, as soon as you land.
Smith owns less than 5% of FDX.
He is the Chairman, President and CEO. Not, the owner. As many, still seem to believe. However, we still are required to speak of him as "Master Fred". Yassum, Sir.
