ATA’s Costello on Where Trucking Is Heading

  • Summary

  • A more competitive bid season, an irrational spot market and severe January weather took a toll on truckers this year. More capacity will need to exit the market before freight rates and earnings can inflect positively for truckload carriers. In this Talking Transports podcast, American Trucking Associations’ (ATA) Chief Economist and Senior Vice President Bob Costello joins Lee Klaskow, Bloomberg Intelligence senior transportation and logistics analyst, to talk about the state of the truckload and less-than-truckload segments and what lies down the road for the trucking industry. The market has become more volatile, and a turnaround will likely happen quicker than in previous cycles, Costello says. He also talks about autonomous trucking, electric trucks, new emission standards and driver availability.
