It would seem that the “new” economy we live in — one where we order everything online for fear of walking into stores — would benefit the companies that provide the infrastructure and transportation to make that happen. Fundamentally, that makes sense. But we’re chart readers here, and the charts are telling us something different. [Read more…]
