Drewry’s World Container Index sinks below US$2,000 for first time in 32 months
The Drewry's World Container Index (WCI) annexed the psychological mark of US$2,000 on the downside for the first time since July 2020, post the first set of quotes reported in the aftermath of the Chinese New Year.
It must be noted, though, that similar quotes were seen in the WCI in early 2015 too. So, technically the rates are at a pre-pandemic level.
