Show Notes

The April 2026 State of the Industry Report reveals a tight trucking, maritime, and intermodal market, with capacity squeezes, rising rates, and increased tender rejections. Diesel price spikes and driver preferences for premium spot gigs are crimping carrier margins. Intermodal volumes are up domestically, but international volumes are down due to soft containers and surplus ships. Manufacturing shows early growth signs, but economic fog looms due to fuel hikes, labor issues, and spotty spending. Expect ongoing tightness and volatility in the weeks ahead.
