Freight Trucking – A Leading Indicator
Shows Demand is Exceeding Capacity
Dear Reader,
For the first time since the 2008 crisis, we are seeing the U.S. economy exceed expectations.
One of the truest leading indicators for an economy is the freight trucking industry, and according to a recent report, demand is off the charts!
Loads on the spot market are literally up over 100% from the same period a year ago.
For the flatbed load-to-truck ratio, which tracks how many vendors are looking for flatbeds, this number is up 142%!
Demand is so strong that we are actually seeing driver shortages and sizable pay increases… all of which will be inflationary for consumers.
CNBC recently covered this story by interviewing Robert Ragan, CFO of Melton Truck Lines. Here is what he had to say: “We’re in a unique operating environment right now in the transportation industry, where demand is at an all-time high and supply of qualified drivers continues to dwindle. We have a hard time filling our trucks, and pay is skyrocketing.”
As a whole, the U.S. is seeing the highest wage growth it has in more than 2 decades.
With oil at $70, lumber hitting record highs, and the U.S. annual deficit about to go over a trillion dollars, the safest, most certain prediction we’ve ever made is probably that Americans are about to experience severe price inflation over the next 1 to 3 years.
The FED hikes will continue, which means gold should continue to make higher highs and higher lows, as has been the case in all the rate hike cycles of the last hundred years.
The inflation trade that everyone has been expecting for the last decade is finally here… Don’t miss out!
We will have NEW stock suggestions in the blockchain, cannabis, and green energy spaces soon. These are very serious deals where we can potentially make 10x on our money.
If you’re looking to maximize your exposure to pure inflation trades, consider buying shares of First Mining Gold (US: FFMGF), GOLDMining Inc. (US: GLDLF), and First Majestic Silver (NYSE: AG).
