The commercial ceasefire between China and America ignites the tranquil ship prices

The Chinese-American agreement to lower customs duties is expected to increase ship prices, with companies hurrying to minimize the 90-day allowance for transporting goods across the Pacific. The rapid escalation of the fees in recent weeks, with the intensification of the trade war, has led to a sharp decline in shipping, as Chinese exports to the United States fell by 21% last month, while imports fell by about 14%. Danish container giant AP Mller-Maersk, last week, estimated the decline in the amount of shipping of China to the United States in April between 30% and 40%. It appears that this decline continued during May, as the number of air freight trips decreased during the week ended 11 May that is, before the agreement was announced on Monday.

Immediate prices by two main factors: returning sizes to their normal levels and the beginning of the peak season, which usually begins by July. “They added the memo:” Given the limited capacity on the short -lived road of the Pacific, the ship’s companies currently have the ability to push ship prices to tangible levels. “Some shipping – the first to feel the effects of sharp shifts in the trade – says commercial ceasefire is a step in the right direction.” We hope that this step should get the way for the two parties to provide a permanent agreement that can provide some clarity, that we can offer customers to offer our customers, offer our customers to offer our customers. Expectations … At the moment, our clients have gained 90 days of clarity by reducing customs duties, and we are working hard to help them utilize the best from this opportunity, “a” Merck “spokesman said.
