Noël Perry, Truckstop.com’s chief economist and former longtime analyst for FTR Transportation Intelligence, has launched a new website called Transport Futures that will serve as a platform to share industry insights.

A key component of Transport Futures will be Perry’s blog, The Transport Navigator, which will be available through a subscription and will offer his analysis of breaking stories.

“If it moves, I’m watching it – and thinking deeply about it. I wanted a place where I could share information as soon as good data is available, allowing my readers to react to market pressures right now,” said Perry.  

Perry will continue his affiliation with Truckstop.com, using the company’s data in his analysis on Transport Futures. The Transport Navigator blog is an enhanced version of his long-running FTR newsletter, State of Freight, according to Perry. However, Perry is no longer associated with FTR.

Perry indicated that his new work will reflect the additional time and creative freedom he now has to devote to his analysis and will be available exclusively through Transport Futures.

“I’ve always been fascinated by the radical changes that have revolutionized the transportation industry,” said Perry. “My choice in naming my new site Transport Futures is a pointed reminder of that interest.”
