Kirby Corporation is likely to show no change in revenue growth compared to last year, but a 24% rise in earnings per share (EPS). Although analysts have lowered their EPS predictions, Kirby has a history of exceeding earnings forecasts, which could lead to a positive surprise. The "drill, baby, drill" approach during Trump's presidency might increase the need for Kirby's transportation services, but the overall effects on oil prices and inflation are still unclear.
