The Suez Canal, a critical waterway handling about 12% of global trade, has seen a decrease in traffic. This has led to longer travel times and increased costs for ships circumventing the Cape of Good Hope, resulting in a substantial surge in freight prices, up by 186.8%. As of January 25, the annual increase in the freight price of 40 containers reached 93.6%, with a weekly increase of 5%. This upward trend has persisted for 8 weeks. #GlobalTrade #FreightPrices #ShippingIndustry #TradeVolume
