Trade and Shipping Line Performance
Normalization in the greater shipping sector continues as
shipping lines observe both decreased cargo volumes and spot
ocean freight rates.
Shipping lines however continue to generate profits, and their
performance in recent years has allowed them to significantly
optimize their balance sheets, resulting in stable financial
security for the near term.
Blank sailings have been a continuous practice by the shipping
lines to better manage capacity in correspondence with
shipping cargo demand.
