This Thursday, don’t miss the 2020 Rate Outlook Webcast! FreightPOP is sponsoring an industry panel to talk about the rate patterns and outlook across all the major transportation modes.
The webcast, hosted by Logistics Management, will include oil and transportation analysts who will give listeners an overview of the current state of shipping and outline capacity and rate forecasts for trucking, ocean freight, air cargo, rail, intermodal, and parcel express.
The state of shipping and parcel is very unstable by expert accounts.
Concerns are high due to:
- New IMO-2020 regulations coming into effect
- Serious over-capacity issues with ocean carriers
- A rise in trucking bankruptcies due to rising costs
- Carload volume declines impacting the rail industry
- A surge in air cargo rates due to volume decline over 2019
- Parcel rises announced by USP and FedEx
Businesses who ship need to be aware of the landscape heading into 2020 to give them insight into making their logistics decisions.
