Want a read on whether this stock rally has legs? Smart money's watching an unlikely indicator: trucking, rail, and shipping activity. When freight volumes pick up across highways and waterways, it often signals robust economic momentum that could fuel further equity gains. These logistics players move the physical economy—and their performance might just telegraph where markets head next.

Logistics data can indeed be misleading, but I don't trust a rally that isn't supported by shipping volume.

Freight volume can reflect the state of the economy—this perspective is quite interesting... But compared to looking at trucks, I think directly looking at order data might be more reliable.

Judging stock market trends by looking at logistics volume? Sounds pretty wild, but it actually makes sense... It's by paying attention to these kinds of details that I haven't gotten burned.

Looking at stock markets through logistics data—how did I not think of this... Truly, economic signals hiding behind the numbers are much more honest than candlestick charts.
