Supply Chain Dynamics
What has become increasingly evident during the past few years is that what’s available to US consumers is driven by both manufacturing and supply chain dynamics. Product making and product moving accounts for over 70% of the US economy. The Watch provides analysis into the broadest areas of the supply chain delivering insights into the availability of raw materials to manufacturers and finished goods to consumers. Our supply chain models incorporate multiple economic models, manufacturing trends, global economic, political, and environmental conditions providing accuracy.
The Watch’s supply chain section includes analysis of:
- Air Cargo
- Freight Rail
- Intermodal Rail
- Maritime Shipping
- Trucking
Our analysis goes beyond providing an assessment of current trends but provides forecasts for the demand for each of these modes of transportation during the coming months.
