The benchmark increased by 1% to US$4,297 per 40-foot container, with higher Transpacific spot rates driving the overall increase, which is having an impact on the U-Freight Group's international container shipping services for both LCL and FCL cargoes. For shippers, the latest movement reinforces the importance of close monitoring of market conditions and early planning around freight capacity and costs. Transpacific rates move higher Drewry reported that Transpacific spot rates from Shanghai to New York increased by 4% to US$7,893 per 40-foot container, while Shanghai to Los Angeles rates rose by 3% to US$5,894. Carriers have successfully implemented General Rate Increases as cargo volumes remained firm into August. Capacity has also been affected by continued congestion at ports in central and southern China. According to Drewry's Container Capacity Insight, carriers have scheduled eight blank sailings for this week, unchanged from last week. Drewry therefore expects rate volatility to ease during this week as available capacity remains relatively stable."}
