Outlook 2007: Slower Growth - But It's Still Growth

摘要

For this year's "outlook," we asked four recognized experts to share their views on the economy and trucking. On the general issues, they more or less agreed. The economy will continue to grow, but growth will be much slower the rest of this year and into 2007. The expected pattern for freight is much the same: slower growth, but still relatively strong. And while our experts tend to agree on other issues, such as fuel prices (they'll stay high) and the global economy (generally good for trucking), each brings a unique perspective that underscores the many facets of our industry.
