1/2 of container shipping from China to US now cancelled. Wow.
"The shipment situation in China is changing rapidly and we have just come to learn (in the last hour) that many carriers such as COSCO and ONE have now cancelled more than half their sailing from weeks 16 (this week) to week 18 for North America which has never happened before
Cargo exempt from tariffs is very limited (basically phones) and Trump has already suggested that this may be short-lived." (from reliable email)
