Truck Transportation Stocks Surge 15% in One Day

Schneider National Inc. (SNDR), a U.S. trucking and logistics firm, closed at $33.51 on the New York Stock Exchange on the 13th, up 14.9%. Trading volume exceeded 1.61 million shares, and the company’s market capitalization swelled to about $3.1 billion (roughly KRW 4.3 trillion), adding nearly $540 million (around KRW 700 billion) in a single day.

Investors reacted positively after Schneider’s first-quarter results, announced in late April, showed revenue of approximately $1.4 billion and adjusted earnings of $0.12 per share—slightly above market expectations—while the company maintained its full-year earnings guidance of $0.70 to $1.00 per share. This combination of solid performance and confident guidance spurred a re-evaluation of the stock’s value.

Bank of America reinforced that outlook by raising its price target from $28 to $35 immediately following the earnings release, further fueling short-term momentum.

Headquartered in Green Bay, Wisconsin, Schneider National is one of North America’s largest trucking and logistics providers, offering truckload, intermodal and third-party logistics services. Founded as a trucking company in the 1940s and having developed a nationwide transportation network, Schneider went public on the New York Stock Exchange in 2017 and is now recognized as a leading listed logistics name among traditional carriers.
