The forecast for the US import of mobile lifting frames on tyres and straddle carriers shows a steady decline from 2024 to 2028, with values of 682.77 in 2024 dropping to 583.63 in 2028. Assuming the 2023 value as a baseline, this decrease reflects a diminishing trend over the years. In 2025, the import is expected to decrease by 3.74% from 2024. In 2026, there is a further decline of 3.81%. For the following years 2027 and 2028, the decreases are 3.88% and 3.96%, respectively. The compound annual growth rate over these five years illustrates a continuous negative trend.
Future trends to watch include technological advancements in automated equipment, shifts in US port infrastructure investments, and potential changes in trade policies which could influence import demands. Monitoring these factors will provide insights into potential reversals or accelerations in the forecasted decline.
