Less Amazon, more profit: UPS raises forecast after cutting millions of lower-yield deliveriesA UPS truck makes its way through downtown Seattle. The “glide-down” caps an 18-month UPS strategy initiated in early 2025 to scale back low-margin e-commerce shipments for Amazon. By shedding roughly 2 million lower-margin Amazon packages per day, UPS says it freed up critical capacity across its ground and air networks. UPS posted second-quarter revenue of $22.8 billion — a 7.6% increase year-over-year that topped Wall Street estimates. Amazon reports its second-quarter earnings on Thursday.
