I’m tracking FedEx more closely now (see today’s touts), since the firm’s shares have held up relatively well over the last couple of weeks.  FDX’s out-of-synch quarterly earnings are due out in December, but until then it will be interesting to see whether the stock is predicting a strong holiday shopping season or merely bucking the bearish tide until such time as it turns even stronger.
