In this week’s episode of FTR’s Trucking Market Update podcast, we review the latest figures on employment in trucking and assess the latest info surrounding diesel prices. Plus, we consider the employment situation more broadly, discuss a couple of key indicators of the industrial and consumer sectors, and recap the week in the spot market for truck freight as usual.
