Market Monitor: Transportation & Logistics

Making the right decisions for your business starts with having the most accurate and current information available. Our Transportation & Logistics Market Monitor keeps you up to date on the events, trends, and market forces that shape and guide the industry.

  • Port activity showed resilience throughout the year but experienced a significant drop in the fourth quarter of 2022 and the first quarter of 2023, especially on the West Coast. 
  • Diesel costs have retreated from pandemic highs but are still elevated from pre-pandemic levels. 
  • Long Haul trucking has been trending downward, due to the shift towards regionalized imports, which is driving the need for more cost-effective and sustainable supply chain solutions.
  • As global supply chains experience realignment due to geopolitical risk, we expect consolidation of the sector to accelerate to capture growth in new geographies and cost savings in new technologies.
