1 Magnificent S&P 500 Dividend Stock Down 24% to Buy and Hold Forever
UPS shares are down 24% over the past six months, boosting the dividend yield to record highs. The company is focusing on higher-margin business and trimming low-profit contracts, especially with leading client Amazon. UPS is taking smart steps to position itself for the next economic upswing. 10 stocks we like better than United Parcel Service › Shares of freight service veteran UPS (NYSE: UPS) are diving these days. The stock is down 24% in the last six months, building on a longer downturn that started in the inflation panic of 2022. The steep price drop brought two investor-friendly qualities to UPS. First, this world-class company is hanging out in Wall Street's bargain bin at the moment. Second, the same stock price pressure drove UPS' dividend yield to record-breaking levels. Read on to see why you should consider buying some UPS stock on the cheap in June 2025, locking in a great purchase price and a fantastic dividend payout. It's fair to say that UPS has experienced some financial trouble recently. The pandemic e-commerce boom faded out. The inflation crisis accelerated the package-shipping slowdown. More recently, trade tensions between Washington and Beijing pose new threats to the shipping industry. UPS thrives on high consumer confidence and healthy global trade trends. The company suffers when those market qualities are headed in the wrong direction, as they are in 2025. So yes, UPS is having some trouble. However, it is well equipped to handle these challenges. Even in a painful downswing, UPS remains a very profitable business. The company generated $5.9 billion of net income over the last four quarters, converting 92% of the paper profits into free cash flows. UPS spent all of the cash profits on dividend checks. That's hardly ideal, and the company doesn't have much room for dividend increases in this economy. At the same time, UPS has $5.1 billion in cash reserves and a rock-solid credit rating. The dividend looks safe from cash-preserving cuts in the foreseeable future. And UPS isn't resting on its laurels. The company plans to boost its profitability over the next year by taking on a smaller number of low-margin shipments. The long-standing partnership with Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) is the main target for this cost-cutting effort, with shipments under the contract halving by the summer of 2026. The move will let UPS close 73 shipping centers and reduce its annual operating time by 25 million hours. "Amazon is our largest customer but it's not our most profitable customer," CEO Carol Tom said in January's fourth-quarter earnings call. "Our contract with Amazon came up this year. And so we said it's time to step back for a moment and reassess our relationship. Because if we take no action, it will likely result in diminishing returns." In other words, UPS is taking action to solidify its bottom-line profits. The helpful moves it makes in this challenging economy should translate into stronger earnings in the next macroeconomic upswing. Investing is a marathon, not a sprint. UPS stock is cheap right now for short-sighted reasons. The company should thrive in the long run, equipped with a world-class shipment system and a proactive management team. By focusing on more profitable services, UPS could get back to generous dividend increases in 2026 and beyond. And in the meantime, the dividend yield stands at an eye-popping 6.7%. It's nearly an all-time record for UPS, and one of the 10 most lucrative yields found in the S&P 500 (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC) index. Furthermore, UPS shares are valued at just 14.3 times trailing earnings and 0.9 times sales. These multiples are about half of their long-term averages and nearly equal to the all-time lows seen in the subprime mortgage meltdown of 2008. Taken together, the rich dividend yield and affordable stock price add up to a great long-term investment. The UPS shares you buy in this temporary dip can help you build wealth in the long run.

UPS suddenly closing more stores amid chaotic new change, layoffs
It may not exactly seem like your routine errands are the backbone of modern civilization. And for the most part, that is a bit of an exaggeration. Related: Popular local Dairy Queen rival suddenly closing, no bankruptcy It's not like your weekly trip to Publix or Walgreens is holding up society like some kind of house of cards, and if you miss a week, it will all come crumbling down. But every one of us does our part. And that means our weekly runs to the grocery store, drugstore, dry cleaners, restaurant, or gas station do have an impact on both the local and broader economy. Which is part of the reason consumer spending matters. It's also why many economists bellyache over prices; a small percentage point up or down can have outsized impact on how the average consumer approaches shopping. Take eggs, for instance. As prices steadily climbed and supply dwindled over the past several months, some customers hoarded eggs for fear of a shortage. In turn, many supermarkets sold out of eggs entirely or put a limit on how many cases per customer were permitted for purchase. And prices continued to climb. It's a small way to represent just how much consumer spending matters — even if a lot of those changes take place in the margins. Consumer spending habits have changed Of course, changes in customer behavior goes both ways. In some cases, increased popularity and spending spike prices, squeezing supply. But in many cases, especially recently, a decrease in interest or shifts in routine have turned prices (and profits) ever-downward. More closings: Popular local Dairy Queen rival suddenly closing, no bankruptcyAnother big Mexican chain closing down restaurant, no bankruptcyPopular fast-food burger chain closes all restaurants in key area This is what has happened on many Main Streets across the U.S. As more of us shop online for our everyday needs, small mom-and-pop shops that cater to niche specialties — like carpets, auto parts, upholstery, crafts, or party supplies — suffer. Profits get smaller, and many stores have had to make the difficult decision to either scale down operations significantly to make ends meet — or shut down entirely. UPS makes a hard decision And sometimes, it's not just mom-and-pop shops that suffer. UPS (UPS) , a juggernaut in the U.S. shipping and fulfillment space, has weathered many changes over the past several years. The company used to work hand-in-glove with Amazon to get packages to their final destinations, but it has agreed to reduce its partnership and cut shipments by about 50% by mid-2026. Related: Subway owner makes major billion-dollar fast food acquisition It's also in the midst of modernizing its operations; it plans to close about 200 facilities around the U.S. by 2028, and intends to cut up to 20,000 jobs by the end of 2025. And now, UPS is closing three stores owned by one franchise in Pennsylvania. The UPS stores are located in: 62 Dallas Shopping Center, Dallas, Penn.1330 Main St., Dickson City, Penn.1114 Texas Palmyra Highway, Honesdale, Penn. A spokesperson said the closures are not related to the broader restructuring efforts. Rather, franchisee Dave McQueen said he was unable to sell his UPS stores and would be shuttering them in the next several weeks. A UPS store spokesperson added that the closures are 'due to the expiration of the franchise agreements, and the franchisee has elected not to renew.'
