Trucking & transport leasing
Article Abstract:
The strong domestic economy in the US has benefited the trucking and transport leasing industry by boosting demand and expansion and setting the stage for rate and yield increases. The less-than-truckload segment of the industry will likely see good revenues, earnings, and margins for 1999 and the year 2000, but rising fuel costs and other factors make this more difficult to forecast for the longer term. These stocks are timely for 1999 and for the next three to five years, as well.

Trucking & transport leasing
Article Abstract:
The robust US domestic economy continues to benefit the trucking and transport leasing industry and the truckload sector is expected to increase rates in the near future. However, the tight market for drivers, inflation, and rising fuel costs has caused share prices to weaken in late 1999, and prospects are mixed in spite of improved less-than-truckload fundamentals. Investors will find many of these share timely and several have good prospects for the next three to five years.
