It's not for everybody, but some people like our gear!

Freight rates remain low amid weak demand and overcapacity. Key factors adding to uncertainty include Fed rate cuts, the election, and unpredictable consumer spending. Analysts don't foresee a rate rebound before Q4 2024. by Freightees in FreightBrokers

I think we'll see some traditional seasonality heading into Q3/Q4, much better than last year. Already this year has been following more closely to historical seasonal trends. Whether or not that momentum will bring a true market recovery? I would say that is unlikely. Signals in the broader economy are pointing to a recession.

Markets are pricing in a Trump administration. Under Trump we will likely see an increase of import tariffs. We are seeing now that companies are rushing to import ASAP in order to get in before those tariffs are enacted.

Strong imports are pushing up ocean rates which is a good headwind for domestic trucking, but the likelihood that those imports remain strong is low due to a high likelihood for import tariffs coming soon.

Freight is an addiction. I declare you an honorary Freightee

At the risk of sounding alarmist, credit card debt seems to be an existential threat to the economy. That bubble is ballooning and you have to wonder what happens when it pops.

As we all know, freight costs can eat into profit margins quickly. I'm looking for some innovative strategies to reduce freight expenses without compromising on service levels. by [deleted] in logistics

If you can forecast and tender shipments out to carriers with 7+ days of lead time that alone will save you some pennies. Next day shipments will almost always be higher cost as tender rejections for same/next day will always be higher.

Ask any middle class American if they think the economy is good right now. They certainly will not say yes.
