    Higher interest rates, concerns about a possible recession and instability in the banking system have plagued smaller stocks. I’m still at a crossroads deciding if to invest $400k on my stock portfolio. what’s the best way to take advantage of the market????????

    It would have helped to point out that shipping costs and shipping rates have an inelastic demand curve. That is, even if the route is 25% longer, this may have very little effect on the final price of the product. Why? Because shipping costs are so low, for almost all products, a small increase in the shipping cost has very little effect on the final cost.

    25% increase in time to deliver does not mean a 25% increase in ships

    Inflation cost $$$$ are set to increase in 2024 if this continues for even a little longer.

    Supply chain crunch is already slowly beginning to increase prices and delay estimated delivery and pick up times.

    I started watching this video in order to find out about the global supply chain related to Red Sea Crisis, but instead video ended up being a couple of guys gabbing about who’s a c suite executive at which company.

    Why don’t people just offer to buy out the Israeli stake in some of these shipping lines?

    USA always wirking hard to start new wars and create chaos, how come the red sea is turbulent only when USA station in her warships . Why should the world care about a few western goods when many thousands civilians are massacre by Israel in gaza with the support of the USA . president putin and Xi of China are right , USA Western hegemony over the nations is destructive creating wars and chaos,thus the need for a multi polar world. The USA cannot be trusted as she is belligerent in most conflicts

    The western media propaganda media want the world to believe USA and their western coalition is saving the world from Houthis when actually they are using them. Why don’t the USA worry about the many thousands massacred in gaza
