The tide has turned in UPS’ global business.

Earnings at the world’s largest package delivery company are now being powered by an economic “uplift” in the United States, while growth in the formerly red-hot international division has slowed. United Parcel Service Inc. earned $725 million, or 74 cents per share, compared with $1.3 billion, or $1.02 per share a year earlier.

Revenue rose 6 percent to $14.17 billion. UPS said the holiday season was its busiest ever. It shipped 480 million packages between Thanksgiving and Christmas.
