J.B. Hunt Transport Services, Inc. shares fall 1.51% after-hours as consumer spending shifts and trade tariffs weigh on markets.

J.B. Hunt Transport Services, Inc. fell 1.51% in after-hours trading. The decline aligns with the broader market sentiment as the Nasdaq tumbled due to jitters from the Jackson Hole conference and concerns over the impact of U.S. tariffs on consumer spending and corporate forecasts. Additionally, the shift in consumer spending towards stopgap items rather than long-term investments, as indicated by Home Depot's sales trends, suggests a cautious economic outlook that may negatively affect logistics and transportation stocks.
