FedEx beats earnings and says profits will keep growing this year — ride the mom

Created

Thesis

While everyone is panicking about AI and tech stocks, FedEx just proved that traditional businesses with solid cost controls are still making money. When one sector of the market gets hammered, money often rotates into companies posting quiet, steady wins. FedEx's optimistic profit outlook gives investors a safe place to park their money away from the tech chaos.

Strategy approach

Build a momentum strategy on FDX on the Daily timeframe. Enter long if the stock closes above its 10-day simple moving average and the 14-day ATR shows expanding volatility. Exit if the stock closes below the 20-day simple moving average. Hold for a maximum of 15 trading days.
