FreightWaves Today | June 23

from FreightCasts · host FreightWaves

On today’s episode of FreightWaves Today, hosts Julie Van de Kamp and Malcolm Harris break down the latest developments shaping freight, trucking, and supply chain markets as the industry heads toward the end of Q2 and the July 4 holiday rush. We cover two major FMCSA regulatory changes that remove long-standing compliance requirements for carriers, including the elimination of CDL self-reporting requirements and the printed ELD manual mandate. We also discuss Saia’s aggressive network expansion and what it signals about confidence in the freight market. In our SONAR market update, we examine rising tender rejections, tightening capacity, spot rate expectations, and why housing could be the missing catalyst that drives the next phase of freight demand. We explore how housing starts, construction activity, and consumer spending impact truckload and flatbed markets across the country. ⁠Follow the FreightWaves NOW Podcast⁠ ⁠Other FreightWaves Shows⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.
