Leadership at C.H. Robinson celebrates a one-year milestone by posting another strong quarter

First quarter 2025 earnings at C.H. Robinson were always going to be of outsized importance in sizing up the performance of CEO Dave Bozeman, who will hit his two-year anniversary in the top spot in late June.

Stolen load of cellphones involving RXO may be another key broker liability case

A case involving giant 3PL RXO has the potential to add another decision to the body of law regarding broker liability.

RXO (NYSE: RXO) brokered a shipment of cellphones for phone reseller PCS Wireless. The shipment was booked a few months before RXO was spun off as a standalone 3PL by XPO, and RXO is identified in the initial lawsuit as “f/k/a” – formerly known as – XPO (NYSE: XPO).

The shipment totaled about 54,000 phones with a value of approximately $11.5 million. They were to move from Texas...
