What are Wall Street analysts saying about United Parcel Service stock?

Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about United Parcel Service stock:
  • 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "UPS delivered better-than-expected revenues as well as earnings per share for second-quarter 2020. Moreover, both the top and the bottom line improved year over year owing to a significant increase in home deliveries amid the prevalent coronavirus pandemic. Demand for residential delivery soared, leading to a 65.2% jump in business-to-consumer shipments. Notably, the need for door-to-door delivery of essentials during this crisis is rising. Moreover, adjusted free cash flow generation of $3.9 billion in first-half 2020 was up 77.2% year over year. The fact that the Zacks Consensus Estimate for current-year earnings has been revised 13.9% upward over the past 30 days reflects the positivity surrounding the stock. We are, however, concerned about the second-quarter decline in operating profit at the Supply Chain & Freight segment." (8/5/2020)

JPMorgan Chase & Co. analysts commented, "NEW YORK (dpa-AFX Analyser) – Die US-Bank JPMorgan hat das Kursziel fur UPS von 127 auf 113 US-Dollar gesenkt, aber die Einstufung auf Neutral" belassen.
