Freight Market Limbo: Mixed Signals and Fuel Price Squeeze

Description

Freight Market Limbo: October brings mixed signals for small carriers. Volumes are up slightly, and reefers are holding strong, but flat dry van rates and rising fuel costs squeeze profits. Tender rejections remain weak, keeping spot rates low, and no holiday surge is in sight. Reefer operators fare slightly better, but overall, strategic cost management is crucial for survival in this sluggish market.
