Its bottom valuation in the first stage can be anchored at the lowest point of the 2025 SCFIS index, 1031 points. It is recommended to roll short following the 02 valuation [13] - For the 2610 contract, pay attention to the progress of the second - stage cease - fire negotiation in Gaza and consider gradually shorting [13] 3.

The high - freight maintenance situation after the pre - Spring Festival shipping peak needs attention [4]. - Far - month contracts: The possibility of the Suez Canal resuming operation in 2026 is high, which may lead to an increase in effective capacity supply and a downward pressure on freight rates, causing the valuation of far - month contracts to be revised down [6]. 3.4 Market Data - As of December 16, 2025, the total open interest of all container shipping index European line futures contracts is 63,344 lots, and the single - day trading volume is 36,307 lots.

Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided.

Core Viewpoints of the Report - The December contract follows the delivery logic, with a small deviation and low positions [3] - The February contract has a moderately high valuation, and is expected to move sideways in the short - term. Looking ahead, the driving force is upward due to strong and recovering cargo volume. Historically, freight rate peaks often occur 4 - 5 weeks before the Spring Festival (mid - to late January 2026), but the high capacity in January 2026 may suppress the peak. At the current valuation, it is recommended to wait and see [3] - The April contract has limited short - term downside. Attention should be paid to the short - selling opportunities when the April contract may rise following the near - month contracts [3] 3.

1. Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the given content 2. Core View of the Report - The market demand is gradually improving, and the industry is waiting for Maersk's price offer in January. The 12 - month contract is expected to be volatile, while the February contract is expected to be volatile and bullish. The far - month contracts are under pressure from the potential resumption of the Suez Canal [1][9] - The delivery of container ships in 2025 is still at a high level, which may have an impact on the supply - demand relationship in the shipping market [8] 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs I. Futures Price - As of December 11, 2025, the total open interest of all contracts for the container shipping index European line futures was 62,069.00 lots, and the single - day trading volume was 21,544.00 lots. The closing prices of EC2602, EC2604, EC2606, EC2608, EC2610, and EC2512 contracts were 1689.00, 1092.70, 1227.00, 1381.80, 1021.60, and 1653.10 respectively [8] II. Spot Price - On December 5, 2025, the SCFI (Shanghai - Europe route) price was $1400/TEU, the SCFI (Shanghai - West Coast of the United States) price was $1550/FEU, and the SCFI (Shanghai - East Coast of the United States) price was $2315/FEU. On December 8, the SCFIS (Shanghai - Europe) was 1509.10 points, and the SCFIS (Shanghai - West Coast of the United States) was 960.51 points [8] III. Container Ship Capacity Supply - In December, the remaining 4 - week monthly average capacity was 314,700 TEU, with capacities of 334,500, 289,600, 315,000, and 319,000 TEU respectively in weeks 50, 51, 52, and 53. In January, the monthly average capacity was 331,700 TEU. In February, the monthly average capacity was 262,900 TEU. There were 4 blank sailings in December and 4 TBNs in January, all from the OA alliance.

Supply Chain - The cease - fire mediation plan in Gaza is advancing, and the probability of the Suez Canal resuming operation in 2026 is relatively high. If the canal resumes, the effective capacity supply will increase, which may further suppress freight rates. Currently, CMA's FAL1 route (Europe - Asia) will fully resume operation starting from January 2026, and the FAL3 route (Europe - Asia) has started a single - trial operation [7] V. Demand and European Economy - The feedback from various surveys shows that the current cargo volume is gradually recovering. The 12 - month contract delivery settlement price may be between 1600 - 1700 points, and Maersk's freight rate is likely to continue to rise at the beginning of January. The 2026 Spring Festival is one month later than in 2025, and there is uncertainty about whether the shipping companies' contract price - holding time will also be postponed [5][7]

Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating No information provided. 2. Core Viewpoints - The 12 - contract follows the delivery logic with little deviation and low positions. MSK lowered the freight rate for the last week to $2300, weaker than the previous flat - expected view, but the PA remained relatively firm at $2400 in the second half of the month [3]. - The 02 - contract has a moderately high valuation, showing short - term sideways movement. In the future, the driving force is upward due to strong and recovering cargo volume. Historically, the freight rate peaks usually occur 4 - 5 weeks before the Spring Festival (corresponding to mid - to late January 2026), but the high capacity in January 2026 may suppress the peak. It is recommended to wait and see at the current valuation [3]. - The short - term downside space of the 04 - contract is small. Attention should be paid to the short - selling opportunities on rallies that may occur when the 04 - contract follows the near - month contract's rise [3]. 3.
