United Parcel Service, Inc. (UPS) stock has come under pressure after Amazon launched Amazon Supply Chain Services, a broad logistics offering aimed at the same freight, fulfillment, and parcel shipping customers UPS serves.

See our latest analysis for United Parcel Service.

At around US$100.10 per share, UPS has seen pressure build in recent months, with a 7 day share price return of about an 8% decline and a 90 day share price return of about a 15% decline. However, the 1 year total shareholder return remains positive at about 10%. Recent swings have been driven by weaker first quarter earnings, restructuring costs, higher fuel prices, and now Amazon’s push into third party logistics. These factors have sharpened investor focus on UPS’s execution and earnings resilience rather than short term volume trends.

With UPS trading near US$100 and showing weak recent returns but a positive 1 year total shareholder return, along with a screen-suggested intrinsic discount of about 40%, the real question is whether this sell off is a chance to buy or if the market is already pricing in whatever growth lies ahead.

Most Popular Narrative: 11.5% Undervalued

With UPS last closing at about $100.10 and the most followed narrative pointing to a fair value near $113.15, the current gap is hard to ignore as analysts frame the business around a long lived global logistics network and a multi year reset of its customer mix.

UPS is accelerating its transition away from low-margin Amazon volumes, aiming to reduce these deliveries by over 50% by June 2026, allowing the company to focus on more profitable segments, which should improve net margins and operating profit.
