미국의 소비자들과 소규모 기업들은 도널드 트럼프 대통령이 중국산 저가 수입품에 대한 $800 면세 한도를 없애는 새로운 관세를 부과한 직후부터 그 영향을 즉각적으로 느끼고 있다. 이 변경이 시행된 며칠 후, 쉬인(Shein), 테무(Temu) 및 I.Am.Gia(아이엠지아) 같은 웹사이트들에서 주문한 고객들은 유나이티드 파슬 서비스(NYSE: UPS)와 DHL과 같은 배송업체들로부터 예상치 못한 수입세 통지서를 받기 시작했다. 이 통지서의 금액은 종종 상품 가격과 거의 맞먹는 수준이었다.

U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) disclosed buying stock in a handful of public companies including Palantir Technologies (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NYSE">PLTR</a>). The latest purchase disclosed Friday could lead to more scrutiny of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/congress-trading">Congress Trading activity.</a>
What Happened: Greene is one of the most well-known members of Congress and her close relationship with President Donald Trump and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/25/02/43452092/musk-doge-partner-marjorie-taylor-green-goes-after-npr-pbs-is-the-department-of-education-next">growing relationship with </a>billionaire Elon Musk, leader of the so-called Department of Government Efficiency, could give her an inside track on how the White House administration will delegate new and existing deals.
The congresswoman went several years without disclosing new stock purchases before unveiling a handful in May 2024. That disclosure has been followed up with trades <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42747345/marjorie-taylor-green-went-christmas-shopping-for-stocks-heres-what-she-bought-before-holiday">every month or two</a>, including the most recent trades made in February 2025, as reported by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/gov-trades/members/marjorie-taylor-greene">Benzinga's Government Trades page.</a>
Here are the latest stocks bought by Greene, with each transaction totaling $1,000 to $15,000 in size.

<li>United Parcel Service (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UPS#NYSE">UPS</a>)</li>
</ul>
Several of the trades made by Greene could raise red flags as conflicts of interest given her congressional committee assignments. Greene is a member of the following committees:
<ul>
<li>House Committee on Oversight and Accountability: Chairwoman, Subcommittee on Delivering on Government Efficiency (D.O.G.E.)</li>
<li>House Committee on Homeland Security: Subcommittee on Counterterrorism and Intelligence, Subcommittee on Oversight, Investigations, and Accountability</li>
</ul>
Greene has made trades in technology stocks before, which could influence her role in the subcommittee on counterterrorism and intelligence.
Benzinga contacted Greene for comment on this story and she had not responded at the time of publication. 
One of the newest trades could represent the largest potential conflict of interest: Palantir Technologies is a company that regularly lands government contracts. As a member of the House Committee on Homeland Security, Greene could have an inside track on upcoming contracts with Palantir.

</ul>
Why It's Important: Greene is not the only member of Congress betting on Palantir Technologies stock. Three other members of Congress have bought the stock in recent weeks.
Here are the other members of Congress who disclosed buying Palantir stock, with each purchase valued at $1,000 to $15,000 according to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/gov-trades/securities/PLTR">Benzinga's Government Trades data.</a>
<ul>
<li>Gilbert Ray Cisneros (D-Calif.)</li>
<li>James Comer (R-Ky.)</li>
<li>Julie Johnson (D-Texas)</li>
</ul>
Palantir has ties to the Trump administration, with multiple founders of the company supporting the president, including Peter Thiel, who served as a venture capital mentor to Vice President J.D. Vance.
Several Palantir co-founders have been supportive of the work being done by D.O.G.E. and Musk, which could lead to the company receiving deals to help improve efficiency and government spending in the future.
Greene ranked 23rd among members of Congress with a 30.2% trading return in 2024 according to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42860759/10-best-stock-traders-in-congress-in-2024-where-do-nancy-pelosi-pete-sessions-susan-collins-marjorie-taylor-greene-rank">an annual report</a> from Unusual Whales.
Calls to ban members of Congress from buying and selling stocks have risen in recent years, but no public congressional vote has taken place on the measure.
PLTR Price Action: Palantir Technologies stock is up 3.44% to $123.26 on Tuesday. The stock hit a new all-time high of $125 earlier in Tuesday's trading session. Palantir stock is up over 420% in the last year.

10 Industrials Stocks Whale Activity In Today's Session

United Parcel Service's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UPS#NYSE">UPS</a>) short percent of float has risen 35.5% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 16.73 million shares sold short, which is 2.29% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 1.93 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<h3>United Parcel Service Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1739390413_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for United Parcel Service has grown since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to fall in the near-term but traders should be aware that more shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing United Parcel Service's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, United Parcel Service's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 3.12%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze/">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

A few days after the change was implemented, customers who ordered from websites like Shein, Temu, and I.Am.Gia started receiving unexpected import duty notices from shipping firms, including United Parcel Service (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UPS#NYSE">UPS</a>) and DHL, often totaling nearly as much as the items themselves.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Surprise Fees on Low-Cost Orders</h2>
Many shoppers who were used to buying inexpensive clothing and household items from Chinese retailers are now being asked to pay additional duties and handling fees before receiving their packages. Some of these charges range from $20 to over $50, with DHL and UPS requiring payment within days or threatening to return the packages to the sender.

For instance, <a href="https://www.reuters.com/business/retail-consumer/trumps-tariffs-china-bite-us-bargain-hunting-online-shoppers-2025-02-06/">Reuters reported</a> that a college student who ordered a $65 top from Australian brand I.Am.Gia was shocked to find a $45 import duty notice from DHL. Her father initially suspected it was a scam before realizing the fees were real. Another shopper was told to pay nearly $40 in additional fees for a $197 Shein order. Many others have shared similar experiences on social media, according to news outlets.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Small Businesses Hit Hard</h2>
<a href="https://www.wired.com/story/tariffs-china-prices-fees-shein-temu/">According to Wired</a>, the tariffs have also created chaos for small businesses that rely on Chinese suppliers or ship products across borders. Leslie Brown, who runs a secondhand clothing business in Canada, said she's stuck with $30,000 worth of inventory she can't move across the U.S. border due to the sudden tariff hike. Similarly, Miguel Schraeder, who sells board game accessories, saw his U.S. customers slapped with unexpected import duties, sometimes exceeding the value of the products themselves.

Some small business owners have temporarily halted U.S. sales, unable to absorb or pass on the costs to customers. Meanwhile, logistics carriers like DHL Hong Kong and the Hongkong Post have announced they will stop accepting individual packages bound for the U.S. due to the new trade rules, according to media reports.&nbsp;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Shipping Companies Slow to Clarify Policies</h2>
Because of the abrupt enforcement of the tariffs, major couriers have been slow to provide clear policies on fees and procedures. The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/02/43504848/usps-resumes-accepting-china-shipments-amid-new-tariffs">U.S. Postal Service briefly suspended</a> all package deliveries from China and Hong Kong before reversing course. UPS has warned of potential delays and removed its service guarantee for packages coming from China, while FedEx (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FDX#NYSE">FDX</a>) has not made a public statement on new fees or delays.
Some retailers, like Qwertykeys, have paused their shipments altogether, as DHL is now requiring a 50% tariff deposit plus a $21 processing fee per package.

U.S. Shoppers And Businesses Shocked By High UPS And DHL Import Duty Fees As China Tariffs Kick In

Global

HongKong Post Says Continue To Suspend Postal Service For Items Containing Goods To The U.S.; HK Govt Spokesperson Says HongKong Post Has Begun Communication With U.S. Postal Service To Clarify Matters Including U.S. Imposing Tariff; Hong Kong Government Reiterated Its Strong Dissatisfaction Against U.S.'s Imposing Additional Tariffs On HK Products

The U.S. Postal Service has resumed accepting packages from China after a brief pause. While the suspension was short-lived, it came in the midst of broader trade tensions, including new <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43493607/chinese-stocks-sink-as-trump-eyes-more-tariffs-and-tougher-trade-restrictions">tariffs</a> that could have ripple effects on companies like United Parcel Service, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UPS#NYSE">UPS</a>) and FedEx Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FDX#NYSE">FDX</a>).
What To Know: The Postal Service halted accepting parcels from China amid President Donald Trump&#8217;s implementation of an additional 10% tariff on Chinese imports. The Trump administration also closed a loophole that let companies avoid tariffs on packages worth less than $800 when shipped directly to U.S. consumers, according to <a href="https://www.wsj.com/business/logistics/u-s-postal-service-suspends-shipments-of-china-parcels-bf6239f3?mod=hp_lead_pos10">The Wall Street Journal</a>.
Use of the loophole has surged in recent years as orders from companies such as Shein and Temu have grown in popularity. In the 2024 fiscal year alone, approximately 1.36 billion shipments entered the U.S. through this exemption.
The Postal Service stated on Wednesday that it is collaborating with Customs and Border Protection to develop &#8220;an efficient collection mechanism for the new China tariffs&#8221; to minimize disruptions to package deliveries.
Now that USPS has resumed accepting packages from China, investors might anticipate less business shifting to UPS and FedEx. However, the ongoing trade tensions and tariff changes may still impact investor sentiment regarding logistics-tied stocks.

Investors began questioning the need to allocate capital to higher-cost AI-related companies, sending shares of top chipmakers and data <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/01/43267966/deepseeks-low-cost-model-reshapes-ai-landscape-experts-predict-shift-to-application-layer">centers into a tailspin.</a>
Yet resilient quarterly earnings reports and a significantly less hawkish Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell compared to his stance in December gave bulls the confidence to buy the dip.
As widely expected, the Federal Reserve left interest rates <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43316048/fed-holds-interest-rates-steady-halts-streak-of-consecutive-cuts-as-inflation-remains-elevated">unchanged at 4.25%–4.5%.</a> Surprisingly, Powell instilled greater hopes for potential rate cuts in the future, stating that monetary <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/01/43318325/a-different-powell-emerges-fed-chair-softens-hawkish-tone-on-interest-rates-bitcoin">policy remains "meaningfully restrictive."</a>
The scars remained visible for Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>), which lost about 15% in a week, with the chipmaker falling again on Friday following reports that U.S. plans to levy a 10% tariff on China.
Risk sentiment deteriorated during Friday afternoon trading in New York amid escalating tariff concerns.
President Donald Trump said again he plans to introduce 25% tariffs on imports from Mexico and Canada, though reports differed on when it would go into effect. 
On Friday, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said tariffs are coming Saturday.
&#8220;The President will implement 25% [tariffs] on Mexico, Canada and 10% on China,&#8221; Leavitt stated. 
Analysts warn that such a measure could cause significant economic disruptions in North America, with the U.S. automotive industry<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/01/43398182/trumps-25-tariffs-could-slaughter-canada-mexico-economies-hit-us-auto-industry-analysts-warn"> among the most affected.</a>

United Parcel Service Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UPS#NYSE">UPS</a>) was one of the worst laggards, plunging about 15% — its worst week since September 2008 — after the parcel service agreed with Amazon.com Inc.

United Parcel Service, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UPS#NYSE">UPS</a>) reported its fourth-quarter results on Thursday and announced a plan to reduce its Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) package volume by more than 50% by the second half of 2026. The announcement comes as part of a set of strategic initiatives UPS launched to drive approximately $1 billion in savings <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/01/b43330139/ups-releases-4q-2024-earnings-and-provides-2025-guidance">by reconfiguring its U.S. network. </a>
The Details: UPS executives laid out additional details during the company's earnings call with analysts. 
CEO Carol Tome said the shift away from Amazon would benefit the company and its shareholders &#8220;because if we take no action, it will likely result in diminishing returns.&#8221; 
"Amazon is our largest customer but it&#8217;s not our most profitable customer," Tome said.

Amazon made up 11.8% of UPS's total company revenue in<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/01/43335015/ups-q4-earnings-major-customer-volume-cut-raises-jitters-stock-tanks"> fiscal 2024</a>, however, the margin on Amazon packages is "very dilutive" to its U.S. domestic business, the CEO disclosed on the call. 
She said the company's contract with Amazon was up this year and UPS needed to reassess the relationship. The result of reduced Amazon volumes will be "an improved customer mix at a significantly higher revenue per piece,&#8221; Tome said.&nbsp;
BofA Securities analysts highlighted UPS&#8217;s margin outlook points to an increase of 120 basis points to 8.8% in 2025 with the reduction in Amazon volume. The firm reiterated its Buy rating on UPS shares but lowered the price from $150 to $133.
According to <a href="https://www.supplychaindive.com/news/ups-amazon-volume-reduction-q4-2024-earnings/738749/">a report </a>from Supply Chain Dive, Amazon had offered to increase UPS's volumes, not reduce them.&nbsp;
"Due to their operational needs, UPS requested a reduction in volume and we certainly respect their decision," Amazon spokesperson Kelly Nantel told Supply Chain Dive. "We'll continue to partner with them and many other carriers to serve our customers."
Tome confirmed on the earnings call that the "accelerated glide down" of Amazon volumes was initiated by UPS.&nbsp;
"This was not their ask. This was us. This was UPS taking control of our destiny," the CEO said.&nbsp;
UPS Price Action: After a volatile morning, UPS stock is flat at $114.85 at time of publication Friday, according to data from <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/?gspk=YWRhbWVja2VydDUzMzY&amp;gsxid=zBMR4PKmcgBw">Benzinga Pro</a>.
