HOLD

It just reported. Is up 35% over 6 months. Reported a nice earnings beat, mostly from cost cuts, but small revenue miss. EPS grew 24% YOY. However, JB didn't indicate if the freight market is making a comeback and their outlook for 2026 is disappointing, "fragile". When the freight market turns around, JB should make a fortune, but we're not there yet. It trades at 27x PE, too high.

DON'T BUY

It reports Thursday. He doesn't like the trucking business now, except FedEx.

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly JBHT recently released results, which resulted in a retracement in the rapid rise in the share price it had enjoyed in since end-September. The shipping company is benefitting from the e-commerce sales rebound, but the company has been temporarily impacted by a shortage of drivers and rising wage costs. Metrics on shipping were all supportive in the lasted earnings. We would trade this with a $110 stop-loss, looking to retract back up to recent highs of $142 – 15% upside. Yield 0.87%. (Analysts’ price target is $141.09)
