FedEx is guiding for a major profit acceleration, but on its latest earnings call, analysts pressed hard on whether the growth is real or just a story of well-timed costs.

Amazon.com muscled into the less-than-truckload (LTL) freight business on Wednesday, driving S&P 500 members FedEx Freight and Old Dominion Freight Lines into a pothole. However, the freight stocks bounced back off early lows as investors saw a relatively modest near-term threat.

Old Dominion, Saia, and XPO each fell 5% or more after Amazon opened its less-than-truckload service to all U.S. businesses

Amazon Broadens Freight Offering Across the United StatesShares of Saia (NASDAQ:SAIA), Old Dominion Freight Line (NASDAQ:ODFL) and FedEx Freight (NYSE:FDXF) came under pressure in premarket trading after Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) unveiled a significant expansion of its less-than-truckload (LTL) freight business.

Jim Cramer says newly public FedEx Freight could become a “true winner” as Wall Street bets the trucking giant’s spinoff from FedEx will finally unlock the premium valuation.

As North America's largest pure-play LTL carrier, the newly spun-off company faces a shrunken market, skeptical analysts and a long road to its own margin targets.

FedEx Freight began trading as an independent company this week, but analysts say stronger margins and operating performance are needed before they become more bullish on the stock.

Instead, FedEx’s spinoff—FedEx Freight trades under the symbol FDXF—is complete. FedEx was at $333 in late-morning trading, down about 1% from its Friday close north of $411. FedEx Freight shares were trading for $164, up about 2.5% from its late Friday price of about $160.

The long-awaited spinoff of FedEx Freight is just about done, and shares of the newly independent less-than-truckload business start trading on Monday, June 1. Old Dominion Freight Line and XPO are LTL shippers. The reason for FedEx’s separation of its LTL business is relatively obvious.
