A Mid-2023 Market Update: Podcast Episode 15

Written by Kevin Baxter | Jul 28, 2023

The freight market recovery is still pending, as the consensus is the industry has settled at a valley in its typical cycle. To discuss where things stand in mid-2023 and to update where shipping is headed going forward, this edition of InTek Freight & Logistics: The Podcast features InTek CEO Rick LaGore and President Shelli Austin in a roundtable discussion of the market.

The chat gets into the numbers to watch, like freight rates (intermodal and truckload), volume and capacity - plus inflation and other economic indicators. But not to get too bogged down in statistics, we also go over the feeling on the ground - how companies (including logistics providers, shippers and carriers) are responding to the down market and what they can do to position themselves for long-term success.
