Demand for OTR and intermodal freight remains high as we exit the holidays and the market has not seen the typical January slump. This is especially true in Southern California where tightness continues as imports remain strong and retailers focus on replenishment efforts. Class 8 truck orders have surged over past several months supporting bullish outlook for transportation longer term.

Demand for drayage remains high as imports continue to show strong year over year comps. We are not expecting to see the normal slow down during Lunar New Year and expect demand for drayage services to remain high for the foreseeable future. Congestion and chassis shortages remain a major concern in Los Angeles reducing turns that drayage providers are able to complete. We are seeing pockets of international chassis shortages in inland locations as well.
