The Dow Jones Transportation Average has declined by about 5% this year, contrasting with the rise in other major U.S. stock indexes. Some investors suggest that the struggles in this sector, which includes various transportation companies, could signal weakness in the economy. The underperformance of the 20-stock transport index compared to the broader market may hinder significant market gains unless it improves. Analysts are cautious about the market's ability to break higher if the transport sector continues to lag behind.
