“And this is exciting because we were waiting for this. . .Raj Subramaniam has been about as good as you could be. He knew there was going to be a freight recession, he knew we were coming out of it. I do like the spinoff. I think it would be good. But I think the FedEx actual is fantastic. And I salute Raj for really figuring out the best way to follow up on the late Fred Smith and the amazing work that Fred Smith did when he created this company. And Raj would agree. This is an amazing company. Fred built it, Raj is doing a terrific job succeeding it.”
