edit Steeper discounting forthcoming

Top Contributor: jeff didomenico | Created when NASDAQ:YRCW was $2.51 | Edit | History

As revenue continues to decline, YRC will continue deep discounting in an effort to maintain the business they are handling. They need tonnage to move linehaul schedules and cannot afford to lose the freight to competitors' due to pricing.

edit YRCW is the largest member of the Teamsters Central States Pension Fund

Created when NASDAQ:YRCW was $2.20 | Edit | History

The Teamster's Central States Pension Fund is in trouble and requiring at least an 8% increase in premiums per year. YRCW labor's benefits costs are exceptionally high already and will only go higher while their revenue is decreasing due to very agressive discounting.
