Interesting development happening in our two tender rejection indices: OTRI is the legacy rejection index. It has a large retail and manufacturing. but lacked a ton of CPG. When we introduced the STRI index, we added are more CPG and food (with far more reefer and regional freight) and combined it with the legacy OTRI data. STRI is a better indicator (2x as large dataset) and while the indexes follow closely, there are times when they reveal interesting things when they diverge. We are seeing a very small slow down in the reefer [i.e., refrigerator] market, largely due to a "cooling" of protect from freeze as warmer weather exist. This is showing up in the STRI index, which has had a small drop this week. Interestingly, the legacy OTRI index is showing the market is firming, rather that cooling. Analysis: trucking capacity that is focused on retail and manufacturing (non CPG) are starting to outpace the CPG-heavier STRI index.Interesting development happening in our two tender rejection indices:

Trucking tied to midwest manufacturing is starting to really light up.
This is an insane map of tender rejections by region.

We haven't seen a map like this since 2021.

I’ve interviewed three people in the last few months with decades of experience in the industry.

Two of them are truckers with 20+ and 30+ years of driving experience, and one of them was a CDL instructor for 20 years.

ELDs, Electronic Logging Devices.
Well, this seems like a big enough concern to alter the states' policies.

State risks losing $128M in highway funding over immigrant truckers
This would be the most impactful crackdown thus far to the capacity map https://t.co/njyVsIeT5I
