Non-Tech : FedEx (FDX) -- Ignore unavailable to you. Want to Upgrade?

My feeling is that FDX may be stuck in a trading range (46 - 52) until some external event breaks it free - hopefully to the upside. I recently bought in for the following reasons:

1. Dominant position in the overnight delivery market.

2. P/E ratio near its historical low - current 12 vs. 11 historical.

3. While the Asian situation has taken its toll, FDX seems to have offset a large portion of the decline in business through cost cutting and other businesses (North America).

4. Mid to long term, FDX is further positioning themselves for new acquisition WHEN appropriate.

I think FDX may have made its lows around 45.75 but there is still a lot of risk in the stock. The appealing part is that the potential rewards seems greater.

Good Luck,

Tony D.

Does anyone know if there was a conference call? If so, does anyone have additional info from it.

Thanks,
