The downward movement on Hub Group's share is bringing it back to interesting prices.
Fundamentally, the company displays qualitative Surperformance ratings. Sales are expected to rise by 7% this year at USD 3.6 billion. The EV/Revenue ratio at 0.47 for 2014 suggests interesting valuation levels. The consensus is unanimously buyer and the average target price at USD 51.7 offers a 12% progression potential.
Following a bullish wave, the stock now shows a slight decline that should lead it toward its USD 45.4 midterm support. At this level, which also represents the 100 days moving average, a re-boost of buyers would enable an upturn in the medium and long term. Weekly moving averages are still well-oriented and militate for this idea.
In presence of this pattern, a decrease seems unavoidable in the USD 45.4 area. Investors could take a buyer position on this level in order to benefit from an interesting entry point with a stop below the medium term support. The goal will be fixed at USD 48.5.
