If a product is going somewhere in the U.S., 7 out of 10 times it is getting there on a truck. Further, according to the American Trucking Association, over 80% of the nation’s nearly $900-billion freight bill became revenue for the trucking industry. That means the trucking industry has a market size of $726B, making it one of the larger industries in the US. This begs the question: if these other industries has correlated futures markets, why doesn’t trucking? Some futures have been around since the 1800s, yet trucking, an integral part of nearly every industry, has been largely neglected.
