FedEx founder Fred Smith, a Marine Corps veteran who revolutionized package delivery, dies at 80
Fred Smith, the FedEx Corp. founder who revolutionized the express delivery industry, has died, the company said. He was 80. FedEx started operating in 1973, delivering small parcels and documents more quickly than the postal service. Over the next half-century, Smith, a Marine Corps veteran, oversaw the growth of a company that became something of an economic bellwether because so many other companies rely on it. Memphis, Tennessee-based FedEx became a global transportation and logistics company that averages 17 million shipments per business day. Smith stepped down as CEO in 2022 but remained executive chairman. Smith, a 1966 graduate of Yale University, used a business theory he came up with in college to create a delivery system based on coordinated air cargo flights centered on a main hub, a 'hub and spokes' system, as it became known. The company also played a major role in the shift by American business and industry to a greater use of time-sensitive deliveries and less dependence on large inventories and warehouses. Smith once told The Associated Press that he came up with the name Federal Express because he wanted the company to sound big and important when in fact it was a start-up operation with a future far from assured. At the time, Smith was trying to land a major shipping contract with the Federal Reserve Bank that didn't work out. In the beginning, Federal Express had 14 small aircraft operating out of the Memphis International Airport flying packages to 25 U.S. cities. Smith's father, also named Frederick, built a small fortune in Memphis with a regional bus line and other business ventures. Following college, Smith joined the U.S. Marines and was commissioned a second lieutenant. He left the military as a captain in 1969 after two tours in Vietnam where he was decorated for bravery and wounds received in combat. He told The Associated Press in a 2023 interview that everything he did running FedEx came from his experience in the Marines, not what he learned at Yale. Getting Federal Express started was no easy task. Overnight shipments were new to American business and the company had to have a fleet of planes and a system of interconnecting air routes in place from the get-go. Former President George W. Bush released a statement in which he praised Smith as 'one of the finest Americans of our generation' and FedEx as an 'innovative company that helped supercharge our economy.' Smith was a minority owner of the Washington Commanders NFL team until 2021, when owner Daniel Snyder and his family bought out the shares held by Smith, Dwight Schar and Bob Rothman. His son Arthur was a head coach with the Atlanta Falcons for three seasons and is currently the offensive coordinator for the Pittsburgh Steelers. Though one of Memphis' best-known and most prominent citizens, Smith generally avoided the public spotlight, devoting his energies to work and family. Despite his low profile, Smith made a cameo appearance in the 2000 movie 'Castaway' starring Tom Hanks. The movie was about a FedEx employee stranded on an island. 'Memphis has lost its most important citizen, Fred Smith,' said U.S. Rep. Steve Cohen of Tennessee, citing Smith's support for everything from the University of Memphis to the city's zoo. 'FedEx is the engine of our economy, and Fred Smith was its visionary founder. But more than that, he was a dedicated citizen who cared deeply about our city.' Smith rarely publicized the donations he and his family made, but he agreed to speak with AP in 2023 about a gift to the Marine Corps Scholarship Foundation to endow a new scholarship fund for the children of Navy service members pursuing studies in STEM. 'The thing that's interested me are the institutions and the causes not the naming or the recognition,' Smith said at the time. Asked what it means to contribute to the public good, he replied: 'America is the most generous country in the world. It's amazing the charitable contributions that Americans make every year. Everything from the smallest things to these massive health care initiatives and the Gates Foundation and everything in between,' he said. 'I think if you've done well in this country, it's pretty churlish for you not to at least be willing to give a pretty good portion of that back to the public interest. And all this is in the great tradition of American philanthropy.'

Jilted Conservatives Whose Mail Vanished Sue Airbnb Over Proxies
Airbnb Inc. is the epitome of digital, frictionless, the-world-at-your-fingertips capitalism — unless you want to file a shareholder proposal. Then it's all about paper, shipping labels and who's manning the mailroom. That's the central complaint from two Airbnb investors who filed a joint lawsuit earlier this month accusing the short-term rental company of pulling a vanishing act with both of their shareholder proposals. Conservative activist investors the Heritage Foundation, the think tank behind Project 2025, and American Conservative Values ETF (ticker ACVF) say they separately mailed physical copies of proposals — as required by company bylaws — to Airbnb headquarters in December and have FedEx receipts showing someone signed for them. But Airbnb said it never received them, and blamed FedEx for fudging the receipts. And so started the saga of the mailroom mystery.

FedEx, Nike and Micron are part of Zacks Earnings Preview
Chicago, IL – June 23, 2025 – releases the list of companies likely to issue earnings surprises. This week's list includes FedEx FDX, Nike NKE and Micron MU. The expectation is for Q2 earnings to increase by +5% from the same period last year on +3.9% higher revenues. This will be a material deceleration from the growth trend of recent quarters. In the unlikely event that actual Q2 earnings growth for the S&P 500 index turns out to be +5% as currently expected, this will be the lowest earnings growth pace for the index since the +4.3% growth rate in 2023 Q3. We have been regularly flagging in recent weeks that 2025 Q2 earnings estimates have been steadily coming down. The magnitude of cuts to 2025 Q2 estimates since the start of the period is larger and more widespread than what we have become accustomed to seeing in the post-COVID period. Since the start of April, Q2 estimates have declined for 14 of the 16 Zacks sectors (Aerospace and Utilities are the only sectors whose estimates have gone up), with the biggest cuts to Conglomerates, Autos, Transportation, Energy, Basic Materials, and Construction sectors. Estimates for the Tech and Finance sectors, the largest earnings contributors to the S&P 500 index, accounting for more than 50% of all index earnings, have also been cut since the quarter got underway. But as we have been pointing out recently, the revisions trend for the Tech sector has notably stabilized in recent weeks. We see this same trend at play in annual estimates as well. A likely explanation for this stabilization in the revisions trend is the easing in the tariff uncertainty after the more punitive version of the tariff regime was delayed. Analysts started revising their estimates lower in the immediate aftermath of the early April tariff announcements, but appear to have since concluded that those punitive tariff levels are unlikely to get levied, helping stabilize the revisions trend. In terms of S&P 500 index 'EPS,' these growth rates approximate to $253.84 for 2025 and $286.87 for 2026. The June-quarter reporting cycle will really get going when the big banks come out with their results on July 15th. But we will have officially counted almost two dozen quarterly reports from S&P 500 members by then. All of those reports will be from companies with fiscal quarters ending in May, which we and other research organizations count as part of the June-quarter tally. We have seen such fiscal May-quarter results from 9 S&P 500 members already and are on track to see another 8 index members come out with results this week. The notable companies reporting this week include FedEx,Nike, Micron and others. FedEx shares were down big in response to the March 20th quarterly release when it missed estimates. But the stock has been struggling for the last couple of years, with the onset of uncertainty around international trade adding to muted demand trends in the industrial sector. FedEx has been actively working to reduce its cost base and lower the business's capital intensity. The board's announcement to spin off the LTL business (less-than-truckload business) is part of that repositioning. FedEx is scheduled to report after the market's close on Tuesday, June 24th. The company is expected to earn $5.94 per share on $21.7 billion in revenues, representing year-over-year changes of +9.8% and -1.9%, respectively. Estimates for the period have steadily come down, with the current $5.94 per share estimate down from $5.98 a month back and $6.32 three months ago. FedEx shares have lost roughly a fifth of their value this year, roughly in line with UPS's performance, but materially below the S&P 500 index's +1.2% gain. The stock is down -2.1% over the last three years, while the S&P 500 index has gained +60.3%. Just like FedEx, Nike is another bellwether that has been struggling lately, with the stock down -21.1% this year when the market as a whole is up +1.2%. Expectations for Nike's quarterly release after the market's close on Thursday, June 26th, remain low, with EPS and revenues expected to decline -89.1% and -15.4% from the same period last year, respectively The headwinds facing Nike include perceptions of a stale product line that has been weighing on demand and the resulting inventory build that needs to be rightsized. The inventory overhang is expected to persist for a few more quarters, but the market will eagerly seek incremental information on the reception of new products and updates on the product pipeline. The margin squeeze is primarily a result of clearing stale inventory, but also reflects the new management team's renewed focus on the wholesale business, which had been neglected in recent years. Micron Technology shares have literally been on fire lately, up +46.2% in the year-to-date period, handily outperforming the Zacks Tech sector's +1.5% gain and the S&P 500 index's +1.2% gain. Driving the stock's impressive momentum is Micron's leadership position in the high-bandwidth memory (HBM) space, a mission-critical input for high-performance computing (HPC) and artificial intelligence (AI) applications. The combination of stable demand trends in legacy products like DRAM and continued strength in HBM is expected to result in strong numbers when Micron reports results after the market's close on Wednesday, June 25th. The expectation is that Micron will report $1.57 per share in earnings on $8.81 billion in revenues, representing year-over-year changes of +153.2% and +29.3%, respectively. Estimates for the fiscal May quarter have remained unchanged over the last three months, although they have increased modestly for the August period and for next year as well. As noted earlier, we have already seen fiscal May-quarter results from 9 S&P 500 members, which we count as part of our Q2 tally. Total earnings for these 9 index members that have reported results are up +2.4% from the same period last year on +7.9% revenue gains, with 77.8% of the companies beating EPS estimates and all of them beating revenue estimates. We are not drawing any conclusions from these results, given the small sample size at this stage. But we nevertheless wanted to put these early results in a historical context.
