As the pandemic continues to slow, the economy is getting back on its feet, but the recovery is not as smooth as some may expect. Prices for goods across the board remain high as inventories remain low and retailers struggle to replenish their stores. 

When is it time to worry about the pace of recovery? That’s the question host Andrew Cox attempts to answer on this episode of Great Quarter, Guys. 

He brings on FreightWaves’ Lead Economist Anthony Smith to discuss some mixed recent economic data, including inflationary pressures and waning consumer sentiment. The two are joined by Bill Catania, founder and CEO of final-mile delivery orchestration platform OneRail, to better understand the economic data in the final-mile sector.
