FedEx Corp. plans to scale back Sunday delivery service in far-flung areas of the US, the latest evidence that the e-commerce surge spurred by Covid-19 is ending.

“As economic conditions have shifted, we are making operational adjustments to suspend Sunday delivery operations in certain low-density, rural markets,” FedEx said late Thursday.
