In oil tanker transportation, the crude oil market is tightening with rising freight rates, while the refined oil market is relatively calm with stable freight rates [5][18][24]. Summary by Relevant Catalogs Container Shipping - Container Freight Index (European Line) - **Futures Disk Performance**: On August 28, all listed futures contracts of the container freight index (European Line) showed declines, with EC2510 closing at 1285 points, down 2.36% from the previous day.

The EC disk fell below 1300 points. It is expected that the freight rate support will weaken in the off - season of the second half of the year, and competition among shipping companies will intensify. The trading strategy suggests a bearish and volatile trend for singles, and a rolling operation of reverse spreads between the 10 - 12 contracts at low prices [5][8][9].

The demand side has the continued rush of shipments on the Sino - US route, alleviating the pressure of vessel spill - over from the US route to the European route. The supply side shows that the monthly average weekly capacity from May to August 2025 is 27.36/27.58/30.53/31.94 million TEU respectively [6]. - **Trading Strategy**: For unilateral trading, it is recommended to wait and see due to high short - term uncertainty.
