Supply Chain Live<\/strong><\/h1>\n

Below the latest supply chain issues and a collection of the supply chain news from around the world.<\/p>\n

A potential economic recession and the supply chain bullwhip are colliding<\/h2>\n

Supply chains are experiencing a massive bullwhip from the COVID economy and have built up massive inventory levels. A slowdown in consumer spending caused by inflation and a potential recession will have a massive impact on freight demand and prolong an inventory drawdown.<\/p>\n

As we look at the pandemic through the rearview mirror, the economy is shifting to a new phase. While the United States is currently experiencing full employment, American consumers are incredibly stressed about the state of the economy and personal financial security. Inflation, crashing stock markets, higher interest rates, and economic uncertainty are sapping any confidence that full employment should offer.<\/p>\n

For supply chains, the consumer pullback couldn\u2019t come at a worse time. The bullwhip effect has created a massive overstock of inventories and wreaked havoc on global supply chains as companies try to recover from the pandemic economy.<\/p>\n
