As geopolitical uncertainty and trade tensions continue to mount, investors and analysts are seeking new ways to monitor the ripple effects of tariffs and shifting trade policies on company performance.
In response to this demand, INRIX has expanded the power of Trips Plus by adding a new set of tickers — helping users better track potential disruptions across multiple industries directly impacted by evolving trade dynamics.
New Tickers, New Visibility
These additions represent companies in chemicals, materials, packaging, automotive, construction, landscaping, and industrials — sectors deeply intertwined with international supply chains and thus highly sensitive to tariffs and cross-border slowdowns.
Whether you’re monitoring BMW’s global automotive operations, Avient’s specialty material flows, or Vulcan and Martin Marietta’s construction inputs, these tickers provide new lenses to understand real-world demand signals, supply chain health, and investor-relevant disruptions.
Each of these brands operates in sectors where international logistics, material costs, and border efficiency are closely linked to performance. The latest enhancements to Trips Plus bring these dynamics into sharper focus.
Why Now?
With recent tariffs targeting industrial materials, automotive parts, and chemical inputs, firms operating in these segments are likely to face supply chain volatility and margin pressure. By expanding Trips Plus to cover this new cohort of companies, INRIX equips institutional investors and hedge funds with real-time vehicle movement trends tied to manufacturing, distribution, and site-level activity.
This added visibility can help uncover leading indicators of reduced plant activity, shifting distribution patterns, or early signs of stockpiling — insights that may precede financial disclosure or earnings guidance changes.
Introducing INRIX Cross Border Insights
To further enhance our customers’ ability to monitor trade-driven risk, INRIX has also launched INRIX Cross Border Insights — a new solution that provides directional, observed probe vehicle counts into commercial and passenger vehicle flows at key U.S.-Mexico and U.S.-Canada border crossings.
When used in tandem, both Trips Plus and our new Cross Border Insights dataset offer a ground-up view of trade movement and exposure. Together, they empower investors to anticipate disruption, measure real-world activity, and adjust strategies with confidence.
