“NEW YORK (dpa-AFX Analyser) – Die US-Bank JPMorgan hat das Kursziel fur UPS von 127 auf 113 US-Dollar gesenkt, aber die Einstufung auf “Neutral” belassen. Analyst Brian Ossenbeck passte seine Prognosen fur die nordamerikanischen Logistikkonzerne an die erwarteten Einbussen aus der Corona-Krise sowie an die niedrigeren Energiepreise an. Daraus resultierten fur UPS sinkende Umsatz- und Ergebnisschatzungen (bereinigtes Ebitda) fur die Jahre 2020 und 2021, schrieb er in einer am Donnerstag vorliegenden Studie./edh/fba
