Q1 Uber Freight market update | March 12
|Backed by one of the largest managed transportation and logistics networks in the world, our Q1 market update webinar provides shippers across industries in North America and Europe with insights on rate and capacity fluctuations, economic outlooks, mode conditions, and more.
What we'll highlight:
- How a rising wave of freight fraud and cargo theft is reshaping carrier and broker selection—and what a fraud‑resistant network actually looks like in practice.
- What shippers should be watching in early 2026 on tariffs, trade policy, and regulatory shifts that could quietly take more capacity out of the system—and how to pressure‑test your current routing guide against those risks.
- Why 2026 is likely to mark the turn from a buyer’s market toward a tighter one, as excess capacity exits and a long‑overdue correction takes shape—and what “preparing early” really means for your contract and spot strategies. (Featuring fresh analysis from Mazen Danaf, Principal Economist at Uber Freight.)
- Practical steps to move from “hoping the market stays soft” to building a governed, exception‑based network that can protect both service and cost when conditions flip.
