FedEx Corp. (FDX) as well as other Logistics Companies have been one of the major beneficiaries during these recent economic conditions caused by the Coronavirus.
In looking at the Candlestick chart, we see the shares bottomed in Mid March from the Pandemic induced market bottom at approximately $100 share and have been one of the stronger names to recover since that time. After a very brief pullback in October, the shares have regained traction and have made even higher highs.
With the Christmas season upon us many of these Logistics Companies anticipate a very busy month with more consumers shopping online and having their packages shipped. It will be interesting to see going forward if this theme can continue and the shares remain strong going forward.
