** Brokerage expects freight rates to strengthen, supported by ongoing supply constraints and a recovering demand environment
** Says, however, clearer visibility on the cycle's peak may not emerge until late 2027 or 2028, as it remains uncertain whether supply constraints will make rate gains more durable and sustainable
