The scope for consolidation in the logistics sector is quite strong.

The banking sector continued to undergo consolidation after their recent gains but the telecom sector is doing quite well following a rebound in European stocks last week.

Schneider Logistics' acquisition of American Port Services is indicative of a larger trend occurring in the industry – the consolidation of several portions of the end-to-end global trade process. The addition of American Port Services enables Schneider to provide clients with an even wider range of services that ultimately translates into lower costs, shorter cycle times and improved flexibility.

One can expect a lot of consolidation to happen in this sector. The stocks should move up from current levels.

Not surprisingly, logistics become quite a big thing when you're working with ice.

Leeds is quite laid-back.
