3-Month Forecast: Based on current technical and fundamental data, Hub Groups stock is expected to face headwinds in the near term. The stock is trading below its 20-day and 50-day moving averages (SMA 20: 33.29, SMA 50: 36.78), indicating bearish momentum. The average true range (ATR) of 1.49 suggests moderate volatility. On the fundamental side, while the forward P/E of 14.62 indicates potential undervaluation, the current P/E of 18.91 and P/S ratio of 0.52 reflect a mixed outlook. The companys return on equity (RoE) of 6.32% is below industry averages, which may weigh on investor sentiment.
