FedEx Corp. (FDX) needs no introduction. It’s the third-largest package courier in the world with a 17% global market share, behind only DHL (39%) and UPS (24%).

The SPDR Retail ETF (XRT) is down 3.8% year-to-date, and consumer discretionary as a whole has been the worst performing of the 11 major S&P sectors. But most of the hard data still points to a healthy US economy. I like Carnival Corp. (CCL), writes Chris Preston, chief analyst at Cabot Value Investor.
