On this episode of #WithSONAR, co-hosts Kyle Taylor and Luke Falasca discuss how the number of tender rejections predicted the decline in freight rates on most major lanes weeks ago.  Rates declined because capacity softened. SONAR’s predictive capacities showed that tender rejections and lower volume gave the signal for rates to begin to fall early in January. 

Now, subscribers can use SONAR to help determine which key markets may have rate increases in their near future.

In addition, Falasca and Taylor talked about how brokers and carriers can get out in front of these market changes in the market by following the changes in tender rejections using SONAR.
