Rate Forecast

▲ +3.2% (rates rising)

July typically sees increased seasonal demand for consumer goods and construction materials moving to the Upper Midwest, while carrier capacity tightens due to vacation scheduling and peak agricultural season logistics. Mid-week rates show modest upward pressure as shippers pull forward loads ahead of typical Friday congestion.

Carrier Capacity

🟡 Moderate

Newark-to-Minneapolis is a well-traveled corridor with adequate carrier supply, but summer seasonality and return-loaded freight imbalance toward the Northeast create mild capacity constraints outbound from Newark.
