- 2012 DJSI Review Results Announced - 20 September 2012
- Weak Global Economy Reflected in FedEx Earnings - 6 September 2012
Launched in 1999, and managed jointly by the Dow Jones Indexes and Sustainable Asset Management, the Dow Jones Sustainability Indexes (DJSI) offer a benchmark for measuring the sustainability performance of 2,500 companies listed on the Dow Jones. As the longest running index of its kind, the DJSI has become a vital reference used by companies and investors in making sustainability investing decisions. Ethical consumers may also look to the DJSI for direction on which companies to support, an issue which is gaining momentum as members of the public become increasingly aware of the need to make changes to save the environment. To be included in the DJSI, companies are assessed on their long-term social, economic and environmental asset management plans. Companies are monitored throughout the year and indexes are updated annually in September.
News on Wall Street on Wednesday included the earnings forecast cut by FedEx, causing the company’s stock to fall $2.54 to $85 – a drop of 2.9 percent. As the world's second-largest package courier company, FedEx has long been relied on for its overnight international shipments, but the company has cited the weak global economy as negatively impacting its profits, noting that customers around the world appear to be making use of slower, but less expensive, delivery options. As FedEx's first fiscal quarter ends on August 31, the company anticipates earning between $1.37 and $1.43 per share as opposed to previous forecasts of $1.45 to $1.60 per share.
