Deutsche Bank analyst Amit Mehrotra downgraded United Parcel Service, Inc. UPS to Hold from Buy and lowered the price target to $221 (an upside of 7.63%) from $253.
- Mehrotra mentions, after the 120% increase in shares since the upgrade to Buy 21 months ago, the stock's risk/reward is better balanced.
- The analyst now prefers FedEx Corp FDX over UPS, given the former's "severe" underperformance year-to-date and UPS's upcoming renegotiation with its union.
- The upcoming contract negotiation between UPS and the Teamsters "has potential to be the most tumultuous since the 15-day UPS work stoppage in 1997," Mehrotra contends.
- In September 2021, Deutsche Bank lowered FedEx's price target to $280 from $375 and maintained a Buy rating on the shares.
