    Benchmark analyst Christopher Kuhn has revised the price target for Hub Group (HUBG, Financial), reducing it from $49 to $40, while maintaining a Buy rating on the stock. This adjustment comes as the firm notes that the first quarter performance of Hub Group aligns with its initial projections. However, the slow pace of recovery in intermodal rates, as confirmed by J.B. Hunt (JBHT) through preliminary insights, has led the firm to lower its financial estimates for fiscal years 2025 and 2026.

    The analyst's decision underscores concerns about the rate recovery trajectory in the intermodal sector, which is not meeting previous expectations. Despite these challenges, the continued Buy rating indicates confidence in Hub Group's long-term potential once the sector recovers.
