CAPS Rating:
**

The Company is a full-load and multi-modal transportation service company in North America.

Rating a stock in CAPS consists of three components:

Your call - Will this stock outperform or underperform the S&P 500? Successful picks are measured in terms of whether or not you were correct and by how many percentage points.

Your time frame - A guideline for other members to see whether your thinking is short or long-term. Time frame is also used to calculate the stock rating, but is not used in the scoring of your pick.

Your pitch - Here's your chance to offer more detailed thoughts, analysis, concerns, or the rationale behind your call. The pitch is optional and may be added later.

Each time you rate a stock, CAPS updates the community intelligence for the company, which may or may not change its CAPS rating. For more information, visit the Help tab at the top of the page.

betting a good earnings report. Smaller companies are getting squeezed out in favor of larger ones. Be interesting to see if JB is elbowing out the competition.

Fuel prices expected to decline into 2009 - this company is expected to have improved profits. Estimates of nearly 100K trucks were forced off the road by high operating costs meaning decreased copetition.

Their price chart and revenue growth look great considering where gas prices have been. Net income has held up well as well. The price multiples do not look quite as attractive, however with the gas situation it seems that management of this company must be excellent to maintain this kind of revenue and price appreciation. With gas prices finally beginning to ease I say this is a cautious buy.

I love high gas prices. This drives small truckers out of biz, and gives greater market share to JBHT. JBHT has an ace in the hole - yes it is trucking, but it is also knee-deep in railways. If gas goes down, great that help too. It wins both ways.
