  • Shanghai–Los Angeles rates dropped -8% WoW to $2,931, still up 8% from early May but down -61% YoY.
  • Shanghai–New York fell -5% WoW to $4,839, though still 33% higher than nine weeks ago; YoY down -48%.

  • Rotterdam–New York was flat WoW at $1,990 but up 2% YoY, one of the few routes with annual growth.
  • Drewry expects further spot rate declines in the coming weeks due to oversupply and weak demand, with added uncertainty from pending U.S. tariff policy and potential shipping restrictions on China.
