JB Hunt Transport & Schneider National - Mega Deal Merger Potential

Swift and Knight Transportation merger has set a precedent for large deal speculation.

A mega deal between JB Hunt and Schneider would improve intermodal capacity management and provide better bargaining power against rail purchased transportation.

Additionally, it would combine strong dedicated, specialized and last-mile services.

There are multiple complications, but this type of deal would be viewed as an even stronger combined entity than the recent Swift-Knight merger.
