Liners savour third-largest rate spike in container industry history

  • Multiple spot-rate indexes have risen to levels last seen in August-September 2024 during the Red Sea crisis
  • SCFI assessed rates from Shanghai to US west coast at $6,067 per feu, to US east coast at $7,384 per feu, to North Europe at $6,683 per feu, and to the Med at $9,332 per feu
  • In the past week, carriers have increased offered capacity to US west coast by 10.5%, to US east coast by 12.1%, and to North Europe by 11.9%, according to Xeneta

  • Analysis
