FedEx profit falls 18% on higher costs

Delivery: Barrels of oil on wheels. Pfftttt.....

Our business is in the shitter but in other news:

FedEx said it would buy MultiPack, a Mexican domestic express-delivery firm.

-------------------------

Whatever happened to: All this extra business down the tubes absorbed by the leaders.

DHL has lost nearly $10 billion in the U.S. in the five years since it purchased Airborne Express in an attempt to challenge FedEx (FDX) and United Parcel Service (UPS).
