Market Highlight: Pendleton, OR
Pendleton experienced the week’s largest market improvement, with the FIT Score increasing 3.24 points from the previous week.
Note: this gain of only 3.24 points is the lowest in recent months, which means the market had a really challenging week last week.
What this score means for carriers:
- Carriers inbound to Pendleton may find an easier time finding outbound freight relative to other markets as outbound tenders currently exceed inbound freight volume.
- Tender rejections of contracted freight are above national averages, indicating more freight may be available on the sport market in the short term.
Market Snapshot: The Market Continues to Ease
This week, we’re seeing the overall market continue to soften from recent highs a few weeks ago.
The US MarketFIT score is now down to 3.32, off from its recent high of 4.23.
If you’ve had a challenging October, you’re not alone. We’ll see if the market can turn a corner in November ahead of peak season.
Lane Rates: Positive Movements out of Chicago Heading East
This week, we’re seeing some positive lane scores in the Midwest, heading out of Chicago to the East.
If you can make it to Chicago, Carriers running these lanes should be able to find slightly more favorable rates.
We’ll keep an eye out to determine if these key markets continue to move in the right direction.
