#3 - Stamps.com (NASDAQ:STMP)
Stamps.com (NASDAQ: STMP) - If you’re looking at a company that partners with the U.S. Postal Service having political risk, it would be fair to look at Amazon. The Trump administration certainly seems to be. However, to be brutally honest, Amazon will be just fine. Stamps.com on the other endured a year that saw its stock fall than rise on potential USPS reform. It’s easy to dismiss any concerns about STMP as being a question of perception being greater than reality, but the likelihood is that something has to give when it comes to the USPS. Recommendations released in 2018 suggested that the relationship (and business model) between the USPS and Stamps.com should continue to be business as usual. However, it’s becoming clear that there is growing movement at least in the Executive branch of the government to make meaningful postal service reforms. STMP’s stock has been surging in the first month of 2019 after losing almost 50% of its price in the latter half of 2018. However, future action by Congress could mean the stock is still not out of the woods.
