I hope they've already put the muzzle on scotty so he doesn't say stupid stuff on the conference call and make the stock drop $12 like he did last july.

This is the guy who is being prepped as the next CEO! This company has so much potential could you imagine where we would be if we had a real leader from the outside come in, change the culture to take us to the next level! We could be the Exxon of the transportation sector....Well, maybe I am dreaming a little
!!!Anyway - as I post this the stock is up $1.32...I will take it

Given the business Exxon is in (and the fact most regular people place them pretty high on their hitlists lol) they're not doing anything revolutionary, just rolling in money due to their ridiculous prices. I'm not sure we'd survive being the Exxon of the transportation sector, do you realize how much we'd have to raise our rates?

No kidding. I realize UPS raised a lot of cash going public, but we did so much better when we were private.

No kidding. I realize senior and/or high level management raised a lot of cash going public, but we did so much better when we were private.

This subject was debated several months ago but I really think UPS will go private again. It won't happen until it can be done without spending 20+ billion dollars but that having been said, when the time is right, UPS will be a privately held entity once again IMHO. Rocky

Yes and no. UPS may have been trying to prop up the share price by doing so, or so a poster a few months ago thought when this topic was debated. Companies buy back shares all the time but for different purposes. UPS has defied logic and/or explanation from where I sit a number of times. I couldn't begin to guess if this is the start of going private again or not. You're talking to an Arts and Humanities student lol. -Rocky
