Quick Glance: UPS replaces FedEx as U.S. Postal Service's primary air cargo provider
  • United Parcel Service (UPS) will become the United States Postal Service's (USPS) primary air cargo provider after rival FedEx walked away pressing for a better contract.

  • UPS shares rose 1.4% while FedEx's stock fell 1.6% as financial terms of the contract were not disclosed.

  • FedEx will not extend its contract with USPS, resulting in nearly $2 billion annual business loss but pushing the company to reduce its air capacity.

  • USPS has reduced payments to FedEx since 2020 when letters and packages were shifted from planes to more economical trucks.
