Feeling a little queasy about your freight rates? Based on the findings of our 2008 Logistics Outlook, you’re not alone.

A confluence of economic circumstances has caused the transportation industry to cast a cold and watchful eye on rate forecasts for the coming year. And while top industry analysts have been reluctant to quantify predictions, they’re ready to share what their gut instincts are telling them.

Join me and an all-star cast of industry analysts as we put the general economic picture into perspective for shippers and help explain the affect the economy is going to have on your trucking, rail, ocean, air, and parcel express rates in 2008.

So, it’s time to get off that rickety footbridge and find some solid ground.
