Episode description
It’s good news, bad news when it comes to the spot market. The bad news: it appears we’ve finally hit bottom when it comes to rates and load posts. But the good news is that there’s only one way to go, and that’s up. Also, it's been a busy week in the news, with information breaking about automatic emergency braking, a new DOT number scam, Julie Su’s nomination to be labor secretary and more. And a tentative deal for one company, and talk of filing for bankruptcy for another. We’ll speak with DAT's Chief of Analytics about the current status of UPS and Yellow, and how it's all impacting the freight market.
