FedEx (FDX, Financial) added 302 basis points to the Fund's return, as its shares soared from $140.22 to $251.52 for a total return of 79.9%. The company reported a 60% increase in quarterly earnings, far exceeding investor expectations. Their domestic ground transportation division shifted into high gear during the quarter and delivered record revenues as the pandemic-induced surge in e-commerce shopping led to a sharp increase in parcel shipments. FedEx also operates the world's largest airfreight network and profits surged as its planes filled and pricing rose.
