Bill Cassidy | Current Challenges and Opportunities in Freight

Freightvine

This week’s guest is Bill Cassidy, Senior Editor for Trucking and Domestic Transportation at the Journal of Commerce. Bill has been covering transportation for over 30 years writing and editing at Fleet Owner, Transport Topics, Traffic World, and now for the last 10+ years at the JOC. He has a great perspective on all things freight. In our conversation we discuss the potential impact on the transportation industry of different events to include the Federal Reserve recently voting to lower interest rates by a half-percentage point, the potential strike of the International Longshoremen's Association union impacting the east and gulf coast ports, the pending changes to the de minimis exceptions for customs, and the recent downsizing trend of TL carriers. Finally, we talk a little about the use of AI in transportation and in media in general.
