raj subramaniam said, yes, when asked if we're nearing a global recession. >> asia is the center of manufacturing in the world when you see these things happen, i feel it's a leading indicator of something more profound the u.s. has been insulated because the u.s. dollar is the currency of choice for the world. there's some insulation there. i do see the u.s. slowing down, too. >> the huge eps miss is raising a lot of questions about execution issues as opposed to macro issues express, where fedex gets about half of its revenue, that was flat ground and freight were up the profit outlook for q2 about half of current stimates back in june, fedex raised its dividend by 53%. i spoke with raj in previous weeks. they said they are cutting hours and they won't be having a hiring push this year, just a much smaller hiring effort >> what do you think, frank? what are the analysts on this stock telling you? is it more of a fedex problem? u.p.s. is down 5% in sympathy. was it just too much capacity during covid for fedex and they're giving some back or is this really a wake-up call that we're heading into
