Have JB Hunt Transport Services's shares ever split?
JB Hunt Transport Services's shares were split on a 2:1 basis on 24 May 2005. So if you had owned 1 share the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 2 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your JB Hunt Transport Services shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 50% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for JB Hunt Transport Services shares which in turn could have impacted JB Hunt Transport Services's share price.
JB Hunt Transport Services share price volatility
Over the last 12 months, JB Hunt Transport Services's shares have ranged in value from as little as $152.5197 up to $199.7377. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".
