Yeah, JB Hunt is uh under pressure on the move this morning, down more than 11% and this is off the back of a rare warning here. They're expecting uh third quarter earnings to decline 5 to 10% which would from the second quarter.
They warned about u rapid uh pressure from fuel prices. They're expected to create a roughly $10 million headwind compared to the second quarter. Um they also talked about labor costs, right?
Driver related costs are expected to increase and could add another 25 million in sequential costs.
So, the first one I want to discuss here is JB Hunt. And this one's kind of a little bit of an earthquake in the near term, but it's kind of very been predictable. So, JB Hunt falls 10% pre-market after they announced an earnings miss coming up.
They pre-announced their earnings are in about a month, but they pre-announced saying that they're going to miss last quarter earnings by 10 almost 10%.
