It offers participants the basis of an option to trade either a basket of routes via the Index, or the individual time charter equivalents (TCEs) as well as voyage charter rates.

Downside risks for freight growth, such as currently weak manufacturing numbers, are being monitored closely by FTR and will be reflected in future TCI forecasts if warranted. inShare Click here to view the latest release and an interactive graph of the TCI > Jonathan Starks, FTR’s Director of Transportation Analysis, commented, "Conditions for truckers and fleets remains quite positive despite the recent dip in the index.
