Midyear Trucking Report: The Second-Half Outlook
Partner
Trucking’s crystal ball isn’t just cloudy, it’s been cracked by a high level of economic uncertainty and the volatile events of 2023. A major strike or the loss of a large carrier could flip the market just as shippers prepare for the fall shipping season and overstocked inventories give way to replenishment. But shippers and carriers also could continue mapping the market bottom they reached in the second quarter. How much of a surge in demand should we expect for trucking services this fall? How should shippers be thinking not just about the second half but early 2024, when some see a tighter market emerging?
This webcast — which will serve as an early look at some of the industry issues to be addressed at the Inland Distribution Conference on Sept. 25-27 in Chicago — will discuss these questions and all topics related to the trucking outlook.
