In this Webcast, our experts will take an in-depth look at the flow of international freight traffic in and out of the United States. As 2008 comes to an end and the U.S. economy sinks further into recession, we will consider where the industry has been and where it is likely to go. Our Trade and Transportation team will discuss future U.S. trade growth by mode of transportation, geography, and commodity. They will then look at key shipping patterns and trade volumes for international cargo, paying particular attention to the impact on U.S. ports. Finally, we will introduce the new U.S. Inland Trade Monitor (USITM), a unique tool designed to track the current and future flow of international freight throughout the United States. With the USITM, you can identify international trade flows in your area by volume, commodity, and mode. This information will help you in freight planning, infrastructure investment, policy analysis, and market analysis. Please join our Trade and Transportation experts as they share how IHS Global Insight can help you make better decisions for your business.
