MY NEWSLETTER - https://nikolas-newsletter-241a64.beehiiv.com/subscribeJoin me, Nik (https://x.com/CoFoundersNik), as I interview Craig Fuller (https://x.com/freightalley), CEO of FreightWaves and Sonar, for a critical update on the freight market collapse and what it means for small business owners and entrepreneurs in 2025.Last time, I called Craig "Nostradamus" for his spot-on predictions about tariffs and supply chain disruptions—and this time, the data is even more alarming. We analyze the OTBI index (Outbound Tender Volume Index), which tracks trucking volumes and shipping activity across the US economy, and the numbers are flashing red: we've lost seven years of economic growth in the goods economy.Craig breaks down how the collapse in critical sectors like manufacturing, construction, housing, energy, and transportation logistics—which together employ 35 million Americans—is being completely ignored by Wall Street, the Federal Reserve, and Congress. While AI stocks and the Magnificent Seven drive the stock market to all-time highs, the Main Street economy is showing clear recession warning signs.This episode explains why freight data is the ultimate leading economic indicator, often predicting recessions 6-9 months before they hit (a principle known as Dow Theory). We discuss what the 2007-2008 financial crisis can teach us, why consumer spending is masking deeper problems, and most importantly—what you should do right now as a business owner or entrepreneur.Questions This Episode Answers:How severely have US shipping volumes and freight activity declined, and what does this mean for the real economy?Why are the Freight Market and OTBI index critical leading indicators often ignored by Wall Street, the Fed, and Washington DC?As a small business owner or entrepreneur, what specific actions should I take right now to prepare for an economic slowdown or recession?Why is a downturn actually a prime time for business acquisitions, consolidation, and securing undervalued assets?What is Dow Theory, and how does transportation data predict broader economic recessions?How do tariff policies and trade tensions with China impact domestic logistics and supply chains?What's the disconnect between AI stock speculation (Mag-7) and the goods-producing economy?__________________________Love it or hate it, I'd love your feedback.Please fill out this brief survey with your opinion or email me at nik@cofounders.com with your thoughts.__________________________MY NEWSLETTER: https://nikolas-newsletter-241a64.beehiiv.com/subscribeSpotify: https://tinyurl.com/5avyu98yApple: https://tinyurl.com/bdxbr284YouTube: https://tinyurl.com/nikonomicsYT__________________________This week we covered:00:00 Economic Growth and Market Predictions02:53 Logistics and Supply Chain Insights05:45 The State of the Goods Economy09:04 Job Market and Employment Trends11:59 Small Business Strategies in a Downturn14:55 Opportunities in a Recession18:09 The Role of Government and Economic Policy21:03 Future Market Predictions and Indicators23:57 The Impact of Freight on the Economy26:49 Understanding Supply Chain Dynamics30:08 Cultural and Historical Context of Logistics33:03 Conclusion and Key Takeaways

Part 1 dives deep into the legend of Clyde Fuller – Craig's grandfather and a true pioneer of long-haul trucking. Max paints a vivid picture of the “Wild West” days before and during the heavily regulated era of the Interstate Commerce Commission (ICC).

Send us a textThis week This Is Vinyl Tap discusses the criminally underrated album by Pure Prairie League, 1972's Bustin' Out. Bustin' Out contains the band's most well known song, "Aime," a radio staple for the last 50 years. Oddly, while even the most casual of music listeners know the song, many would be hard pressed to name the band that performs it. As a result, Bustin' Out has been somewhat ignored, which is a shame, because it is a fantastic collection of country infused rock songs. The album's secret weapon is David Bowie's guitarist Mick Ronson, who provides string arrangements and, some (uncredited) scorching guitar.   While the band did move away from the rawer sound of their debut on Bustin' Out, the album is bit more mature and undeniably full of expert playing and fine, soulful vocals by front-man Craig Fuller that makes its influence on the alternative country bands of the early 1990's very apparent.  Visit us at www.tappingvinyl.com.
