Commentary:
For the four weeks of P7 2010, container shipping volumes increased 18% over the same period last year mainly due to higher volumes carried from all major trade lanes, particularly the Transpacific and Asia Europe trade lanes. Average revenue per FEU (Forty-foot Equivalent Unit) was 39% above the same period last year, due to improved core freight rates in the major trade lanes.
P7 YTD, 2010 container shipping volumes increased 35% while average revenue per FEU increased 15% over P7 YTD, 2009 levels.
Notes : Period 1 and Period 12 comprise 6 weeks per period while Periods 2 to 11 comprise 4 weeks per period.
Average revenue per FEU and volume are a blend of all trade lanes as recorded at point of sailing.
