That affected third-quarter earnings at one of the biggest names in this industry, C.H. Robinson. Visit Business Insider's homepage for more storiesOne of the trucking industry's biggest giants announced third-quarter earnings on Tuesday evening, and the results were even lower than the low expectations analysts had ahead of the release.
