Welcome to the team, Graham.

RXO’s latest report confirms what many in the industry are feeling: spot rates are surging despite soft freight demand.

Key takeaways from Q1 2026:
• Spot rates up 18.7% YoY — highest levels since 2022
• Spot rates have crossed above contract rates for the first time in three years
• Load-to-truck ratios and tender rejections at four-year highs
• Capacity tightening driven primarily by federal enforcement and driver availability constraints

This is not a demand-driven cycle like 2020–2021. The current rate pressure is largely supply-driven, with carrier attrition and regulatory enforcement materially reducing available driver capacity.

While goods consumption remains soft, tightening capacity is reshaping the rate environment. With Roadcheck and produce season approaching, further volatility may be ahead.

At Southern Intermodal Xpress, we continue to monitor market indicators closely to position our customers for stability in a fluid freight environment.
