Overview

The forces moving through global trade in 2026 are converging. Energy markets in motion. Ocean carrier reroutes. US-China decoupling and hemispheric sourcing shifts. The combination is unlike anything the industry has navigated, and no single playbook covers it.    

What covers it is experience, pattern recognition, and the discernment to ask the right questions plus the leadership posture to hold a team together.    

We are fortunate to count Jim Newsome and Gary Adams among our advisors. On May 14th, they are joined Michael Rentz, CRO of Gnosis Freight, for one hour with the Gnosis community.    

On the table:  

  • Energy markets and what they signal for carrier behavior  
  • Horn of Africa reroutes and the rate implications  
  • US-China decoupling and the shift in Pacific capacity  
  • The coordination gap that shows up first when conditions get hard
