Raymond James analyst Patrick Tyler Brown lowered his price target for FedEx to $200 from $215, while reiterating an Outperform rating on the shares. While the analyst appreciates that the specter of slowing economic growth in Europe and Asia could continue to drive volume headwinds over coming quarters, he continues to believe that FedEx garners a "strong and highly idiosyncratic long-term growth profile," driven, in part, by his view that the TNT acquisition will eventually prove accretive. Moreover, on the Domestic front, Brown remains optimistic in the long-term earnings power of Ground and believes Freight, underpinned by the company's dominant terminal network can continue to drive earnings growth over freight cycles.
