If you look at this MC and their insurance it was recently activated on 5/25/2026. I have been clamoring for onboarding services to add a high value cargo assessment that specifically blocks carriers whose insurance started within the last 30-45-60-90 days. Go and look at carriers that steal loads. One thing in common they all have is recently activated insurance. Why? Because they don’t want to pay multiple months of premiums. They want to pay one month, and then steal all they can, and shut it down. Also, because if they purchase the MC they have 30-days to notify the FMCSA of the change I believe.
🚨 Freight Fraud Friday 🚨 🔥 $13,000,000 STOLEN 🔥 FREIGHTGUARD REPORTS MATTER YADAV (MC1181345) allegedly out of Harrisburg, PA reportedly picked up a load, disappeared on 6/8/26, and made off with thirteen million dollars in freight. The truck was assigned an escort vehicle due to the nature of the high-valued freight. The escort vehicle in front of the truck was reported to have intentionally been hit by the truck and taken off the road. The truck continued to roll with the freight. We were informed the trailer may have been recovered later - but completely empty. The carrier was reportedly onboarded using an onboarding platform. Brokers and shippers - this is why you vet before the load rolls. One bad carrier can wipe out your entire margin (and possible your company). Always run carriers through carrier411.com first and do not override carrier selection rules.

Also, once they purchase the MC the old owner cancels the current policy in their name because they are no longer paying the premiums. So the new fictitious owner MUST purchase a new policy. Literally the easiest damn thing to spot.

Expect volume to increase to close the month. Shippers are starting to have that conversation. Monitor volumes and get ahead of what you can.

Just received my first email from a client stating they are pulling loads into the 2nd quarter. Buckle up. Volumes will increase. EOM, EOQ, EOFY, and Fourth.

The only thing that did not work during the soft market were the actual wages for American truck drivers. I like the volatile market. I hope it keeps ripping. Yea it sucks when you are in it, but the real ones will make it through. I am ready for more elimination. Brokers, carriers, PE, AI. You name it there is probably something I can find that I don’t like. There are way too many people that think AI bots, or subsidizing shipper rates is the future of logistics. It’s all just pure bullshit to me. The soft market allowed too many weak companies in, and those weak companies have now created difficult times.
DAT's models are breaking. DAT's data worked during a soft market because little changed outside of seasonality. That all changed as the freight market heated up, starting in November of last year. This is why SONAR has seen the highest number of new SONAR logos in our history over the past two months. We call it the SONAR surge. Clients realize they need high frequency data that doesn't lag and doesn't rely upon load board postings to interpret the market.

Any freight brokers from like 10 years ago remember the carrier/dispatcher that would call in about loads, and then ask, “DO YOU KNOW WHAT A BIRD SAYS?” Then proceeds to say “CHEAP CHEAP CHEAP” over and over again if he didn’t like your rate, then hang up? It happened to me and other co-workers dozens of times. I miss that guy.

Great to hear! I love to see real results happening in real time. This is not GUESSWORK. It’s so easy you will literally wonder why you never thought to do this before. DAT saw my posts, reached out and scheduled a meeting with me and their engineering team. I’m thinking this will be an actual product offering down the line. If not from them another one of my followers vibe-coded this into a UI and sent me a screenshot. It was amazing. I told DAT I needed it to be called Fergdawg. Not sure they were onboard with that but we will see.

I can attest to this. I’m dragging forward next weeks loads to send tomorrow when volume will be very low. It’s been a profitable week

It’s not rocket science. The data is there for everyone to read. Thomas Freight is making more money based off live volume readings. In real time. Real results today & this week. Real money. Real profit. Literal cheat code for brokers. It honestly feels unfair to be able to read the market this well.

Exactly. I saw volume drop Monday but brokers were still quoting Tuesday. By Thursday they were pushing back. You were a full week ahead.

Wrong. Again, you are commenting on something I am not even talking about. That is how I know you are NOT reading my posts much less comprehending the posts. You are talking about next month. This is called “live volume”. This is a look into how a day is actually going or will go. Live volume looks will still work next month. It has nothing to do with where the market has been or will go. It gives you live real time insight into the decisions you should be making day to day, not next month or year.

I am telling you the rates are only going up no matter the volumes I'll revisit you next month even though traditionally one of the slowest month of the year another advice , you and your broker buddies should look into purchasing the equipment maybe finding some drivers pay them well cause no matter how hard you want this market to turn it just ain't gonna

Here is how I know my methodology works. I posted my findings & how I did it. That allowed others to replicate my process and see if they come to the same conclusion. It’s called the scientific method. Guess what, others have corroborated my findings. Regardless of the people that work off “feeling” I have provided a real blueprint for reading the day of live market in real time.
Replying to @John__Ferguson
you are using broker data that are booking carriers who posts trucks many carriers even the spot ones do not post they have connections those ones you will never figure what they are doing cause the booking goes confidental between the shipper/broker and carrier via texts or emails

The average person is a quitter. They quit diets, relationships, and jobs the second things get tough. If you enter the trucking business with a "let's just try it out" mentality, you’ve already failed. A new episode of The Long Haul is out now! vist.ly/57e9g

Exactly like I said last week. EVERYONE else would catch on to the volume dip by Thursday.
I tend to notice the market shift, from my experience, by about one week earlier than any other brokerage. What will determine if it holds or not will be volume on Monday. If volume is back in the high 60-70-80 range there will be zero change in the market and rates will continue to be high. If volume is in the 40-50-low 60s, and it continues into Tuesday, Wednesday, you will see other brokers push back on rates Wednesday-Thursday next week. I have been using this technique to capitalize on profits for years.

Pivot is not “using AI.” Pivot is becoming the first 100% AI decision-making freight brokerage on Earth. No gut calls. No guesswork. No legacy brokerage theater. Just machine-speed execution, autonomous decisions, and a freight model the industry is not ready for. This is not an upgrade. This is the extinction event.
