  • The Curve, RXO's proprietary truckload spot rate index, reached its highest level in more than four years
  • In the second quarter to-date, spot rates, as measured by the Curve, have continued to rise both year-over-year and sequentially; carrier capacity continues to tighten relative to shipper demand

RXO (NYSE:RXO) a leading provider of asset-light transportation solutions, today released the latest update to its proprietary Curve truckload market forecast, which shows rapidly rising truckload spot rates, excluding the impacts of fuel.

In first quarter, spot rates, as measured by the Curve, rose 16.5% year-over-year, the highest reading since the third quarter of 2021. This was also an acceleration from the fourth quarter of 2025, in which rates rose by 5.2%.

Through May 15, the Curve is on pace to finish the second quarter at an even higher mark than the first quarter.

The surge in rates is the result of continued attrition of carrier capacity, driven by federal regulation enforcement, which has led to a supply imbalance relative to demand.
