FedEx Slumps After Disappointing Earnings, Dragging US Futures Lower

US stock futures took a tumble this morning, with the Nasdaq futures falling over 80 points. The decline was fueled by a disappointing earnings report from FedEx Corporation (FDX), which sent the company’s shares plummeting in pre-market trading.

FedEx’s first-quarter results for fiscal 2025 fell short of analyst expectations, prompting the company to lower its full-year guidance. Revenue for the quarter reached $21.6 billion, missing estimates of $21.955 billion. Adjusted earnings per share came in at $3.60, below the projected $4.80. This news resulted in a steep 13.1% drop in FedEx shares, pushing them down to $260.92 in pre-market trading.

Joining FedEx in the pre-market decline were several other notable stocks:
