The 76 Percent Capacity Trap in US Manufacturing

from The Supply Chain Economy with Fexingo: Logistics, Shipping, and Goods Movement · host Fexingo

Lucas and Luna examine why US factory output is rising but capacity utilization remains stuck at 76.1%, below the 80% threshold that historically triggers freight growth. They explain the paradox of rising industrial production without corresponding trucking demand — and what it means for the supply chain economy heading into mid-2026. #CapacityUtilization #IndustrialProduction #Manufacturing #Trucking #SupplyChain #Freight #USEconomy #FactoryOrders #Logistics #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #Economics #IndustrialSector #ProductionCapacity #FreightDemand #MacroEconomics #FactoryOutput #SupplyChainEconomy Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
