The freight rate of the US line rises again! 40 feet cabinets at least 1,000 US dollars

As the Lunar New Year is approaching, the cabin competition from Asia to North America is extremely fierce. Following the weekly shipping price of North American routes rose by more than 40 %, on January 15, the freight rate soared again. For 40 -foot containers, at least $ 1,000 is required, which is roughly estimated that the US West quotation has risen by 25%, and the east shipping price rose by 20%.

People in the logistics industry said that if the owner is unwilling to accept the price increase, it will not be able to seize the shipping. In the short term, the freight rate has soared to the high level during the epidemic and there are no signs of stopping. Although the spot price is not three changes a day, the frequency of changes is quite high.

With the arrival of the Lunar New Year, the cabin at the end of January was quite tense. Some voyages have been operated at full load and cannot receive more goods. Therefore, from this week, the freight price of Asia to West will rise again by $ 1,000, making the shipping price of 40 feet containers reached $ 5,000. At the same time, the freight rate from the Far East to the East will also rise by $ 1,000 to $ 7,000.

Many customers report to the industry that the current economic situation has not improved significantly, and the amount of goods has not increased much, but why should the freight price rose two or three times? The analysis of the logistics industry believes that the main reason is that the tension in the Red Sea region causes the ship to be unable to pass normally, and it must be detoured. As the range increases by 30 days, the number of ships that must be invested every month also increases. In order to fill the needs of the high -freight market, many ships were transferred to the past, resulting in a crowding effect in other markets.

In addition, the Panama Canal's water deficiency problem has also exacerbated the dilemma of the global shipping market. There are problems with the two canals at the same time, which has made direct changes in the market structure that had been provided too much. This is not because of the increase in global economic demand, but because of the sudden decrease in supply and demand. Logistics practitioners further explained that the current situation in the global shipping market is like a bus delaying the departure time. Passengers have to wait for the next bus. 

However, many vehicles are transferred to support other lines, resulting in the increase in the number of passengers. Passengers who originally needed multiple cars can only be squeezed into the same car now. This naturally leads to the situation where the seated seat cannot be available.After the US -British raid Yemen, the tension in the Red Sea region intensified. Matsky said that according to the current situation analysis, it may take months to reinstate the Red Sea Trade route. This incident further exacerbated the chaos and uncertainty of the global shipping market.
