leekris United Parcel Service ( UPS ) is on watch Monday after the package delivery stock was profiled favorably in Barron's over the weekend. The publication sees upside for UPS ( UPS ) because it believes the company is executing well and that the market is still underestimating the recovery potential. The expectation is that if UPS ( UPS ) keeps delivering on operations, shareholders could see about 30% gains over the next 12 months, with further upside beyond that. Barron’s pointed to signs that UPS ( UPS ) is managing through a difficult environment and that the current valuation does not fully reflect a better earnings outlook if operating performance continues to improve. Investors were noted to be focusing too much on near-term weakness and not enough on the company’s longer-term earnings power. The bottom line from Barron's is that UPS ( UPS ) screens as a high-quality, attractively valued logistics leader, supported by strong income quality and investment metrics, but constrained by weak growth, profitability momentum, and macro misalignment. Shares of UPS ( UPS ) edged 0.2% higher in premarket action on Monday. More on UPS UPS: Positioning Itself For Future Success United Parcel Service, Inc.

Gulf stock markets have diverged sharply since the Iran war began, and the region is now home to both the best-performing global bourse over the past month — and the worst. Dubai’s main stock index , which notched double-digit gains last year amid a continuing post-pandemic influx of capital, residents and tourists, is the world’s worst performer so far in March. Meanwhile, Oman’s benchmark surged to the top of global rankings, buoyed by firmer oil prices and what has so far been its relative insulation from the worst of the strikes. While some Omani energy sites have been attacked, the country has been struck less often than the United Arab Emirates, Qatar and Kuwait. It’s also benefiting from increased traffic at its ports on the Gulf of Oman coast as Iran brings shipping traffic through the Strait of Hormuz to a near standstill. The UAE has borne the brunt of Iran’s retaliation on Gulf countries following the US-Israeli offensive that began on Feb. 28, with strikes hitting airports and residential areas, though much of the country remains operational. The Dubai Financial Market is down about 16% in March, led by declines in property developers and airline stocks such as Air Arabia PJSC amid widespread travel disruptions. In contrast, Muscat’s benchmark is up about 10% this month and roughly 38% year-to-date, extending a rally that began in mid-2025 on hopes that the tiny bourse will get upgraded to emerging market status. So far, the war has barely registered, and gains are broad-based among shipping, energy and banking stocks. The S&P 500 sank to an August low at the end of last week and is down about 7% in March, while Brent crude is on track for a record monthly gain and is trading around $115 a barrel. “Oman remains relatively insulated from the conflict, particularly compared to other regional hotspots including the UAE, Qatar and Bahrain,” said Tahir Abbas, head of research at Ubhar Capital in Muscat. “While there have been limited disruptions, investors ap...
