Trucking Market Update - Week beginning February 5, 2024

In this week’s episode of FTR’s Trucking Market Update podcast, we explore payroll employment in trucking, which apparently has been considerably weaker in recent months than we previously thought. We also address changes in the for-hire trucking firm population during January, which set a record. Plus, we recap the week in diesel prices and the spot market for truck freight and look at economic indicators related to the labor market and manufacturing.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.Download the PDF: https://freight.ftrintel.com/trucking-podcast Support the show
