Report Industry Investment Rating - The investment rating for the container shipping European route is "Oscillating Weakly" [1] Core View of the Report - The EC in the container shipping European route weakened during intraday trading. The 06 contract closed at 1767 points, down 8.32%, hitting a new low since March. The 08 contract fell 12.38%, and the closing price was basically the same as the 06 contract. The expectation difference for the peak season continued to narrow, and it was doubtful whether the seasonal peak season from May to August could be realized. The current freight rates of shipping companies have not changed much. In the first half of April, most shipping companies continued the quotes at the end of March, and there was a small increase in the second half. The freight rates in April tended to stabilize, and the average price of a 40 - foot container in the 16th week was about $2300. Some shipping companies have announced their online quotes for May, with the quotes for 40 - foot containers ranging from $2337 to $4545. The average weekly capacity put into operation by shipping companies in May exceeded 300,000 TEU, and the increase efforts of each shipping company varied. Under the influence of the uncertainty of high - tariffs, shipping companies may start a price - cut game to preserve more profits instead of betting on the peak - season demand. It is expected that the EC will continue its weak pattern in the short term [1] Summary by Relevant Catalogs EC Contract Volume and Price - The latest transaction price of EC2504 was 1500.9 points, down 1.20%, with a trading volume of 772 and a unilateral open interest of 1736.
