  • There is a current strike being held on the railroads
  • The government is demanding a settlement – railroad striking is illegal. Will the President will be forced to intervene?
  • We have seen an expansion of long-haul trucking companies
  • How badly have logistics costs gone up lately? Hint: It’s bad.
  • There are tough negotiations being made that could shut down the ports on the gulf for transportation of supplies
