<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

(JBHT) - Analyzing JB Hunt Transport Servs's Short Interest

Looking into the current session, JB Hunt Transport Servs Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JBHT#NASDAQ">JBHT</a>) shares are trading at $175.08, after a 0.57% spike. Moreover, over the past month, the stock increased by 1.84%, but in the past year, fell by 13.52%. Shareholders might be interested in knowing whether the stock is undervalued, even if the company is performing up to par in the current session.

<h3>Comparing JB Hunt Transport Servs P/E Against Its Peers</h3>
The P/E ratio measures the current share price to the company's EPS. It is used by long-term investors to analyze the company's current performance against it's past earnings, historical data and aggregate market data for the industry or the indices, such as S&amp;P 500. A higher P/E indicates that investors expect the company to perform better in the future, and the stock is probably overvalued, but not necessarily. It also could indicate that investors are willing to pay a higher share price currently, because they expect the company to perform better in the upcoming quarters. This leads investors to also remain optimistic about rising dividends in the future. 
Compared to the aggregate P/E ratio of the 279.83 in the Ground Transportation industry, JB Hunt Transport Servs Inc. has a lower P/E ratio of 31.31. Shareholders might be inclined to think that the stock might perform worse than it's industry peers. It's also possible that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1738083608_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In summary, while the price-to-earnings ratio is a valuable tool for investors to evaluate a company's market performance, it should be used with caution. A low P/E ratio can be an indication of undervaluation, but it can also suggest weak growth prospects or financial instability. Moreover, the P/E ratio is just one of many metrics that investors should consider when making investment decisions, and it should be evaluated alongside other financial ratios, industry trends, and qualitative factors. By taking a comprehensive approach to analyzing a company's financial health, investors can make well-informed decisions that are more likely to lead to successful outcomes.

J.B. Hunt Transport Services, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JBHT#NASDAQ">JBHT</a>) shares dipped on Friday after Wells Fargo cut its price target on the stock <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/jbht/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">from $200 to $190</a>.
Yesterday, the company reported fourth-quarter EPS&nbsp;of $1.53, which missed the consensus of $1.63, while sales&nbsp;of $3.15 billion were in<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/01/b43040470/j-b-hunt-transport-services-inc-reports-u-s-gaap-revenues-net-earnings-and-earnings-per-share-for-" rel="noreferrer noopener"> line with the street view</a>.
Operating revenue fell 5% year over year to $3.15 billion due to a 3% and 2% decline in revenue per load excluding fuel surcharge revenue in Intermodal and Truckload segments, respectively, a 4% reduction in average trucks in Dedicated Contract Services and a 22% decrease in load volume in <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings" rel="noreferrer noopener">Integrated Capacity Solutions</a>.
Also, JP Morgan cut the price forecast to $200 from $205, while reiterating an Overweight rating.
Evercore ISI Group trimmed the price forecast to $202 from $207, reaffirming an Outperform rating.
Meanwhile, Stifel analyst J. Bruce Chan raised the price forecast to $174 from $161 <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/jbht/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">while maintaining a Hold Rating</a>.
The analyst notes an unexpected $16 million intangible impairment charge, translating to about $0.10 per share.
Intermodal ended 2024 with record volumes, but residual contract pricing from earlier in the year weighed on revenue. The analyst adds that it is expected to remain a headwind until the third quarter of FY25, with only gradual improvement.
The analyst says the Dedicated segment continues to experience fleet contraction, likely persisting into the second quarter of FY25.
Chan writes that management guided first-quarter FY25 margins lower, citing a disconnect between optimistic Street estimates and expectations of inventory pull-forward, projecting a 20% &#8211; 25% sequential decline in operating income.
Overall, the analyst says this quarter had positives but raised concerns about near-term earnings and stock performance.
Chan lowered the first-quarter EPS estimates from $1.46 to $1.15, 2025 from $7.00 to $6.55, and set a 2026 EPS estimate of $8.10.
Benchmark analyst Christopher Kuhn writes that excluding an impairment charge in ICS from the BNSF acquisition, fourth-quarter EPS of $1.66 exceeded expectations owing to slightly better operating income than he expected. The analyst adds that first-quarter guidance is a disappointment.
The analyst says that he continues to consider JBHT&#8217;s diversified model and secular growth in Intermodal and Dedicated could support long-term EPS growth. However, patience may wane as estimates are revised down and mid-cycle earnings continue to get pushed out.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Investors can gain exposure to the stock via ProShares Trust ProShares Supply Chain Logistics ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SUPL#NYSE">SUPL</a>) and SPDR S&amp;P Transportation ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XTN#NYSE">XTN</a>).
Price Action: JBHT shares are down 6.24% at $174.58 at the last check Friday.
