    Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

    I'd say the unemployment numbers say otherwise. Those numbers aren't lying.

    Again, you make statements based on sound bites you hear. 2018 was a very big boom year. Up about 20% over 2017. In 2019, growth slowed, but still has GROWTH. Up about 3%. So yeah, it is off the growth pace of a banner year. 2019 is still up about 20% relative to 2017.

    They are not lying, you simply don't comprehend what they are saying... which is typical for you.

    “While spot [freight] rates are negative year over year, they are still up [more than] 5% when indexed to the January 2017 baseline,” Seidl pointed out in his report on Wednesday. “Similarly, contract [freight] rates, while only up 3.1% year over year compared with +21.3% in mid-2018, are still up close to 20% when indexed to January 2017.”

    I think it's important to recognize...as the article states...that it isn't that '19 is bad. It's that '18 was good because of everyone who scrambled to fill inventories before the Orange Buffoon imposed tariffs. It ballooned GDP a bit, and increased activity across the board.

    Also true is the drop in fuel prices necessitating a demand to lower shipping costs. Costs were through the roof when diesel was over $4/gallon
    Once in a while you get shown the light, in the strangest of places if you look at it right.
