So what are your thoughts? Mine are its strange that you have a 2 week period to sign up, then they collect until Sept 30th and then your stock is purchased on Sept 30th. Holding our money? Why?

I didn't know that was how it works. Is it administered through T.Rowe Price?

I know the Roth I.R.A. option that was added is not exactly the clearest thing in the world.
 
Quarterly earnings report .

No, it's through Morgan Stanley. It's not a retirement plan. And I am not putting a dime into this P.O.S.
Also, the 401k change is just that you can do Roth (after tax) contributions to your 401k. A Roth IRA is something that you can do outside of work on your own. They both have the same benefit of having your money grow tax free.

The reason, I think, is because you must buy whole shares of stock. With what I read in the terms you might be better off going outside and buying it on your own. This is setup for those that live paycheck to paycheck and can have the company hold money then buy stock after a time frame. As of this post XPO stock was $104.27 if its that price on 30 Sept then the company will buy it for you at 95% of its value or for about $99.05 per share and then you must follow the terms of the sell. My opinion would be to put 1% or more in a roth IRA. Also if I buy stocks I don't want any special term I must follow. If the stock jumps or dives in a week I want the choice to dump it when I want.
 
5% discount is not enough to warrant loss of control. Get any company stock you want through a broker. There are many to chose from.
 
If my memory serves me correctly Top Dog FedEx Frieght doesn't give a discount of any kind to their underlings.

5% isn't much of a discount, but it is something. I believe it's pretty typical to pool the money in brokerage account than invest in the actual stock at the end of each quarter.
 
If you really think the company is going to be sold, you’d be wise to buy stock. You’ll most likely make about 25% when it’s sold.
 
If you recall, he forced a conversion of all the XPO stock in our 401k's because he felt it was a distraction. It was claimed people were too concerned with watching the stock price while at work.

Now that it's overpriced, he wants us to buy in.
Most people that work at XPO Logistics have invested too much for what they have received already.

Time. Blood. Sweat.

I didn't think they gave use XPO stock for our Conway shares that we had in our 401k. I heard Xpo just bought it out and put cash in there
 
I got in when the talk of Home Depot was going on at almost $89 a share. Now it's trading it $104 and I'm feeling pretty good. I used Robinhood to make my purchase. No brokerage fees whatsoever. Quick and easy to set up easy to sell easy to buy.
And please info the crowd what restrictions you have on a wait period to sell your shares
