Bank of America analysts expect U.S. trucking rates to rise as years of carrier exits, driver shortages and stricter safety regulations tighten capacity, even without a broad freight recovery. ATA chief economist Bob Costello said the shift reflects reduced supply rather than stronger demand, which remains pressured by tariffs, trade uncertainty, higher interest rates and energy costs. Costello estimates U.S. GDP growth at 2.4% in 2026, but just 0.5% without AI-related investment. AI-linked industries are supporting activity, with electrical equipment production up 10.3% year over year, computer equipment up 8.3% and aerospace up 7.9%. Food and chemical production each fell 1%, while retail and housing remain weak. ATA contract freight volumes are 9% below their 2022 peak, and interstate carriers have declined by more than 42,000 since December 2022, or roughly 12%. Full-truckload operating costs rose 13% from 2022 to 2025, outpacing the 8.4% increase in revenue per mile. $CHRW $JBHT

Worth a read if you follow $JBHT. The Fed chair argued this week that AI spending raises prices today and lowers them later, and freight is one of the clearest places to picture the second half. Fewer empty miles means the same freight moved for less. That is a supply force, and supply forces push prices down. One of his colleagues thinks the first half is all we are getting for a while. Wrote up both. https://techdamentals.com/newsletter/what-kevin-warsh-and-the-fed-said-about-ai-rates-and-inflation?ref=st Educational, not advice.

$JBHT: J.B. Hunt Transport is trading lower despite a Q3 earnings beat and 20% revenue growth as rising operating costs continue to squeeze margins. Stronger freight demand and improving pricing offer hope, but a meaningful margin recovery may not materialize until 2027. https://www.briefing.com/story-stocks/archive/2026/10/16/jb-hunt-transport-q3-beat-offset-by-continued-cost-pressures-(jbht)?utm_campaign=storystocks&utm_medium=social&utm_source=st&utm_content=link #Earnings #trucking #freight #logistics #Transportation
