What the Freight Market Might Be Headed Toward in 2026

The freight market is sending mixed signals, and even the biggest data sets are not giving clear answers. Paul Gibson, Director of Brand and Growth Strategy at the Broker-Carrier Summit, highlights how potential FMCSA changes and tightening capacity could impact spot rates while still leaving the market unpredictable. He then turns the question to Josh Hanes, Head of Production at the Broker-Carrier Summit, who sums up the mood simply: the industry is still moving forward, even if it already feels like a long year, and we are only weeks into 2026. #FreightMarket #TruckingIndustry #FreightRates #SpotMarket #Trucking #LogisticsTrends #SupplyChain #FMCSA #FreightForecast #Transportation
