9:40 a.m. ET -- FedEx is one of the most mentioned companies in the U.S. across all news items in the last 12 hours, according to Factiva data. FedEx reported higher profit in its second quarter as weaker demand continued to pressure revenue.

Analysts polled by FactSet expected per-share earnings of $3.97. Stripping out certain one-time items, adjusted per-share earnings came to $3.99, below the $4.19 forecast by analysts, according to FactSet. Revenue fell to $22.2 billion from $22.8 billion a year earlier, missing the $22.36 billion expected by analysts polled by FactSet. Dow Jones & Co. owns Factiva. (chris.wack@wsj.com)
