FTR Schedules Complimentary Transportation Outlook Webinar for January 11, 2024, to Discuss Key Factors Affecting Freight Demand in the Rail, Intermodal, and Trucking Sectors in 2024
Bloomington, IN – (Trailer Technician) – FTR will host a complimentary Transportation Outlook webinar on Thursday, January 11 at 11:00 AM EST. The webinar is open to all.
The webinar “Transitioning to Growth in 2024” will examine some of the key risk factors facing the rail and intermodal space over the next year so that shippers and carriers can be tuned into the metrics most likely to signal a change is imminent. Meanwhile, trucking has been stuck in an uncharacteristically stagnant period of weak market conditions. The webinar will explore some key variables that could lead to an inflection, including economic forces that bolster or deflate freight demand.
The webinar will be moderated by Jonathan Starks, CEO with Eric Starks, chairman of the board, and Avery Vise, vice president, of trucking, exploring
- Economic forces that could bolster or deflate freight demand
- Several factors could either prop up driver capacity or accelerate its exit from the market
- Rail service and regulation will again be in the spotlight as the Surface Transportation Board will no doubt remain busy in the new year.
