Start this year, all countries around the world restore the trade of sea ports. The shortage of containers in the recovery phase has a huge impact on the freight rate.
Market people said that in February this year, the transportation cost of each container has increased from $ 1,500 to $ 6,000-9,000. Container shortages also pushed the price of new containers.
Currently, China's container manufacturers that occupy the market dominant to $ 2,500 for new containers, above $ 1600 last year. In this six months, container rent has also increased by about 50%.
Sea is one of China and the major trade methods of global countries. China is also a large country in container production. It is reported that the current China's manufacturing container accounts for approximately 95%.
Container crisis, Germany media to China
Recently, a "container crisis" formed in the world, the German media "Economic Week" issued an article. When complaining that this box brings huge trouble to the entire shipping industry, give the pot to China.
Moral media said: "Only a few manufacturers have mastered the supply of containers, almost all in China, some large groups have more than 50% of the market share, and other countries can't catch up."
"Now, China's supply chain has not satisfied the needs of the world, all of which is because of China's reasons, although many companies overtime completion of production tasks but are still not enough, this situation has burst" container crisis ".
Although the article concluded that the international trade was stagnant last year, the container almost "zero demand" is the source of this crisis, but it is still not polite to push the responsibility to the Chinese head.
Some netizers said: "Supply China's cost-effective container, seeing a aneulite 'service' rather than a gift, this originally used the West to act in the west. Although moral media knows this crisis What is the source, but they still don't forget to give sin to others. "
North America is a global container shortage
According to relevant people, there are four main reasons for this crisis:
First, due to the reduction in the number of containers available;
Second, since most ports are congested due to shortage of labor;
Third, due to the reduction in the number of ships operating;
Finally, due to the major changes in the purchase of consumers.
Middle last year, the real "black swan" appeared. A large number of container goods from Asia are shipped to North America, but because of the limitations of the epidemic, there is almost no containers to Asia.
This kind of supply asymmetry has evolved into a terrible imbalance.
The latest analysis of Sea-Intelligen, Danish Maritime Consulting, shows that North America is very responsible for the serious imbalance of containers in the global shipping industry.
According to the analysis of Sea-Intelligence, North America is responsible for the 40-45% imbalance in Asia's containers before the epidemic. After the early fluctuation of the epidemic, this situation has changed dramatically, and North America is now structurally caused by 55-60% of Asian boxes.
Sea-Intelligigen warns in its latest weekly report that the structural supply chain associated with empty conclusions is not close to normalization.
Sea-Intelligen's report said: "Now the problem is now corrected by North America. At the same time, North America is the most serious place in the port congestion, which slows down the efforts of the container."
As the import demand in the United States continues to grow, the clogged logistics chain continues to slow down the turnover speed of the container. The difficulties in Asia's purchase containers are intensifying, according to JOC, Asian container shortages will intensify in May.
What will happen in the future?
Although some reports pointed out that their ports have improved in recent weeks, there are still some other reports to future pessimism in the coming months. Many people still think that everything will not alleviate before summer.
Obviously, this year will be a challenge for trade, shipping companies, and world economy.
