"With the peak shipping season in full swing, and labor troubles brewing on the East and Gulf coasts, this is a critical time for shippers moving these products," JOC Executive Editor Chris Brooks said. "What impact will the Midwest drought have on agricultural exports? Will automakers sustain the strong sales of the past three months? Is the recent spike in housing a sign of long-term recovery that will drive forest products shipments or just a temporary blip? These are some of the important questions we'll answer in our fall webcast series."
