1/ volumes are back at 2019 levels which was not a major recession by any means. Congrats regard, you can’t read a simple chart 2/ these are spot volumes, which is a tiny portion of the overall freight market, but you wouldn’t understand that by reading an article and thinking you’re a genius by reposting here 3/ there’s been an excess inventory issue in the market due to retailers overstocking amid massive logistics disruptions, so lower freight is not even necessarily reflective of end demand

1st, nowhere in my post did I say recession

2. These are 95% contract volumes, nowhere does it say spot volumes 

3. It is reflective of lower demand, maybe not lower demand vs. 2019 (per chart), but much lower demand compared to where we have been for nearly 2.5 years.
