In this week’s episode of FTR’s Trucking Market Update podcast, we explore the latest data on trucking employment and changes in the population of for-hire carriers as well as employment data on the broader economy. We also discuss the unpleasant trend in fuel prices and some strength in the spot market for truck freight. Plus, we talk with Chris Visser of J.D. Power Valuation Services about the state of the used truck market.
The Trucking Market Update is hosted by FTR’s Vice President of Trucking, Avery Vise. As this information is presented, you are welcome to follow along and look at the graphs and indicators yourself by downloading the presentation.
