US shippers’ forecast freight growth falls to near five-year low
	The roughly 600 shippers surveyed by Wolfe Research earlier this year say they expect same-store shipments to drop on average 2.2 percent over the next 12 months. It’s a far cry from where shippers’ expectations were a year, even months, ago. Volume forecasts for the next 12 months are down 3.1 percent year-over-year and 3.5 percent since the end of 2014.
