The price of US shipping has skyrocketed again this week
The price of US shipping has skyrocketed by 500 USD within a week, and the space has exploded; OA alliance New York, Savannah, Charleston, Norfolk, etc. are around 2,300 to 2,900 US dollars, THE alliance has increased its price from 2,100 to 2,700, and MSK has increased from 2,000 to now at 2400, the prices of other ships have also increased to varying degrees; the reasons for this may be as follows:
1. Shipping companies reduce the number of liners, and many shipping companies have reduced the number of voyages to varying degrees; most of them are due to not making money and losing money in business. No matter how high-level shipping is, it is essentially logistics transportation, which is subject to great fluctuations in the market and is unstable. After all, whether it is a shipping company or a freight forwarder, they are all taking other people's goods, and they do not own the goods themselves.
2. Now is also the peak season for shipments in the United States, and those who stock up for the peak season in the second half of the year will start shipping.
3. The market has fallen to freezing point and there is no profit. Many freight forwarders have changed careers, and they don’t want to do it anymore. They like to quote but not guarantee the price. This profit and volume are not as good as setting up street stalls to make money. In this way, there is less competition and the price rises faster.
The spring of freight forwarding is coming, and the US line has exploded
Some shipping companies have no spaces in July, and the era of price increase of 500 US dollars/40HQ is coming again, so hurry up and reserve spaces.
Now, it is already hard to find a container space for OA positions in South China to Los Angeles, Oakland, etc. in the west of the United States. There is a freight forwarder saying that from Yantian to Los Angeles, the quotation for 2080/40HQ spaces will have to wait.
From Shanghai and Ningbo East China to New York, Savannah, Charleston, Baltimore, Norfolk, as well as to Chicago, Memphis, Kansas, etc., MSK's low-priced spaces are sold out.
