FedEx Cuts Earnings Guidance

I don’t need to say much here.  The global economy has slowed and profit margins have likely peaked.  As expected, the corporate profits picture is becoming VERY murky.  Here’s the release from FedEx:

FedEx Corp. (FDX) today announced that earnings for the first quarter ended August 31, 2012 are expected to be in the range of $1.37 to $1.43 per diluted share, compared to $1.46 per diluted share last year. The company’s original first quarter forecast was for earnings of $1.45 to $1.60 per diluted share.

Earnings during the quarter were lower than originally forecast, as weakness in the global economy constrained revenue growth at FedEx Express more than expected in the earlier guidance.
