Report Information - Report Title: Container Shipping Index Daily Report [1] - Date: February 6, 2026 [2] - Research Team: Macro Financial Team [4] - Researchers: He Zhuoqiao, Huang Wenxin, Nie Jiayi [3] Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the report Core Views - Although Maersk and Hapag - Lloyd announced the resumption of the ME11 service of the GEMINI alliance through the Red Sea/Suez Canal from mid - February 2026, most European - line varieties closed higher, possibly due to the continued speculation on the US - Iran situation and photovoltaic rush shipments. The peak of the pre - Spring Festival rush shipment demand has passed, and spot freight rates are expected to enter a downward channel. After the Spring Festival, it is likely to continue the off - season performance, and the relatively high shipping capacity in March limits the possible rebound. However, geopolitical conflicts may continue to provide trading hotspots. It is recommended to short the 04 contract on rallies and go long on the 08 contract on dips [8] Summary by Directory 1.
