After an extremely turbulent and unpredictable 2021-22 with historical highs and a rapid downturn it is only natural to hope for some semblance of normality to emerge in 2023. However, when the underlying data and trends are analyzed, it becomes clear that 2023 is fraught with more uncertainty driven by factors both outside and inside the container shipping industry. Risk management and contingency planning will continue to take a prominent role as opposed to accurate forecasting and just-in-time logistics.
