We're in a recession as far as amount of goods being shipped and bought. If people have to spend more on services, there's less to spend on goods." Yet, because of newfound pricing discipline among LTL leaders, tonnage is down, but it's not affecting overall revenue. "They're making up for it because of technology development,' says Jindel.
