Dean Croke | State of the Market

<p>This week’s guest is Dean Croke, Principal Analyst and all-around trucking expert here at DAT Freight & Analytics. Dean has over 20 years of experience in the long-haul trucking industry - from (and still) being a driver to insurance to software and analytics.  In this episode, Dean discusses the state of the TL market - specifically the capacity side - to include the current level of spot rates and their relationship to carrier breakeven costs, the importance of tracking the spot market even though it is much smaller than the contract side, and highlights from the most recent DATCON event. </p>
