Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the given content Core Viewpoints - On Monday night, multiple shipping companies reduced prices, leading to a downward oscillation in the Tuesday trading session.

The market anticipates that the freight rates in November will settle between $2000 - $2200 (1400 - 1540 points). Overall, driven by subsequent price - support and contract - signing factors, it is recommended to adopt a strategy of buying on dips for contracts 12 and 02.

Spot freight rates have likely reached their peak and are expected to enter a downward trend in August. The主力10 contract has a deep discount, and the market may engage in a game regarding the rate and magnitude of price cuts. It is recommended to take short positions on the 10 contract when the price rises [8]. Summary by Section 1. Market Review and Operation Suggestions - Spot Market: The peak of the shipping season has likely passed, and the SCFIS has further declined this week with an increased rate of decline. Shipping companies have lowered their August quotes, and the freight rates are expected to enter a downward trend in August. The demand side is unlikely to improve significantly, and the supply of shipping capacity is relatively high during the off - season. The freight rates this year may be even lower during the off - season. It is recommended to take short positions on the 10 contract when the price rises [8]. 2. Industry News - Market Conditions: From August 4th to 8th, the China export container shipping market was basically stable, but the transport demand lacked growth momentum.

If the conflict worsens significantly, it may boost futures prices in the short term [10]. - Trade Policy: The US will maintain a 25% tariff on Japanese goods and may soon reach a trade agreement with India [10]. 3.

Report Information - Report Title: Container Shipping Index Daily Report [1] - Date: June 27, 2025 [2] - Research Team: Macro Financial Team [4] - Researchers: He Zhuoqiao, Huang Wenxin, Nie Jiayi [3] Core Viewpoint - The market has weak expectations for the price increase in July, and it remains to be seen whether other shipping companies will follow the price - hike. Considering the strong resilience of European export demand, stable shipping capacity supply, and the stabilization of quotes and container volumes, the price increase in the peak season is difficult to be falsified in the short - term and may be supported by fundamentals. The 08 contract may be undervalued, while high - short opportunities in the traditional off - season in October are worth attention [8] Summary by Section 1. Market Review and Operation Suggestions - Spot market: Shipping companies have announced price increases for early - July freight rates, with quotes ranging from $3860 - $4535, and a median of around $4000. However, Maersk and CMA CGM have lowered their opening prices. The market has weak expectations for the price increase, and it's necessary to observe the implementation in July and other shipping companies' follow - up. The price increase in the peak season may be supported by fundamentals, and the 08 contract may be undervalued, while the 10 - month contract in the traditional off - season offers high - short opportunities [8] 2.
