The 19th Annual State of Logistics Report paints a pretty grim picture — fuel prices are sky-high, carriers are dropping out of the business, consumer confidence continues to sag. Other negative factors include health care costs and general inflation. Some help is on the way — the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) is taking steps to increase the visibility energy futures and bring petroleum prices more in line with supply and demand. How does the state of logistics appear to you? Are there any silver linings in the clouds?
