The team at @EaseLogistics is dialed in, one of the most productive brokers I’ve seen. @convoyplatform just adds to that momentum. Thanks for hosting us. Always good to catch up, and we’ll keep scaling together!

Hey @freightalley, thanks for the feedback. We are making a small adjustment to make it even clearer that Section 2 (the referenced section) of the Product and Delivery Schedule only applies to brokers using the Convoy Platform. Thanks again for pointing out that some people may have misunderstood the Schedule – we’re very excited about our recently signed FreightWaves-DAT affiliate partnership. We’re excited to continue serving carriers

On this lovely Friday morning in Ohio I decided to do the most terrifying thing an analyst can do: publish 52-week technical forecast during a major market disruption. Ratecast by @datfreightteam is truly the best long-term forecasting engine in the space. It did remarkably well during 2025, but to be fair there wasn't much happening. Here's what the model is thinking for dry van spot rates for the balance of 2026. Again, this is an unaltered technical forecast so treat it as such.

No you see a karaoke machine company said they vibe coded freight forwarding and that caused $CHRW to crater which caused degrossing across all industrials that then spilled over into everything else & caused retail to panic sell and that’s how we got the Great Depression of 2028

So let me get this right, CNBC's thesis is that a company pivoted from in cab Karaoke (Algo-"rythm", get it?) to AI Dispatching and thereby CHRW lost $6B in market value? cnbc.com/2026/02/12/trucking…

Broker gross margin update for December 2025 GM per Load: $189.47 (-$.32.81 MoM) GM Percent: 9.91% ( 221bps MoM) Length of Haul: 710 (Unchanged MoM) Sample size: 933k loads from 446 companies I want to caveat this by saying that I'm a certified non-alarmist. That aside, this data is crazy and my channel checks have verified that brokers are seeing this in reality. What's wild about this data? For starters, gross margins under 10% are concerning and very rare at an industry level. Generally when we see GM % this low, it's because rates are high and the GM per load is up. Compare December of 2021 as example where GM % was ~11% but GM per load was over $250. Not only are we underperforming those margin levels, but brokers are also netting nearly 25% less gross profit per load than other high-rate environments. The tl;dr here is that a combination of seasonality, weather, and constrained capacity seems to have put brokers who are balanced towards contract in a bind. p.s. If you drill into reefer margin data, it's even more bananas. But that's a story for a different time.

It was pretty cool to see LTA's Pathfinder 1 cruising around on a beautiful SF morning.

I created this list of background resources for @Flexport so everyone on our team become an expert on the new tariffs so we can best help our customers navigate this crisis. Sharing here to since many customers follow me. If you have other great articles and sources, please post in replies.

On April 17th the U.S. Trade Representative's office is expected to impose fees of up to $1.5M per port call for ships made in China and for $500k to $1M if the ocean carrier owns a single ship made in China or even has one on order from a Chinese shipyard. 🧵 1/

To calculate #tariffs, the White House used a simple formula. In their calculations, they referenced an interesting paper by Cavallo et al. (2021). Let's look at some nuggets from that paper. ustr.gov/issue-areas/recipro…
