Strong operator in frozen food trucking, which could be insulated from recessionary environment that is pressuring transportation stocks. Smaller players struggling with increased capex and regulation, positioning companies like KNX for share gains.… More

Low supply of freight coupled with high fuel prices do not lead to a sound bottom line. I'm shorting this until the dollar strengthens and fuel prices head back towards $2.50-$3/gal instead of $4-4.50.

I don't think this company has much upside at this point in the game. Regulations will bury the sector.

Just learned that Knight Transportation signed a consent decree with FMCSA to install EOBR's in all their trucks due to so many hours of service violations. My company was required to do the same thing and it cost tens of thousands of dollars and we have less than 12 trucks. It also cost us a lot of business as we were tied to that EOBR. This has become a slow death for my company and I'm sure it will result in the same for Knight. My boss just loves writing all the checks to Qualcomm for our EOBR link ups. Maybe we should find out what satellite company thye will be using and buy their stock because they'll be getting rich off of Knight.
