Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core Viewpoints - European routes have high capacity in June, and the price of the 06 contract has risen to around $2600/FEU. As MSC has started to revise the European route prices for June, other shipping companies will likely follow suit. Attention should be paid to the final actual prices in June.
