Both dismast and demast are acceptable.
Increasing profit/raising charges requires "justification" to grease customer acceptance regardless of actual cost increases. The Houthi/press/et al supply justification, that is their trade. Knowledge of that puts world socioeconomic politics in a different light than first appearances dictate!
ila wants some of that money
A good day to have drinks at hand.
i am here ..
I love your channel, reciting lists of numbers is hard to fathom, maybe just use one or two significant figures, also put in context you know, sometimes saying now we're getting to where these people made half as much as the people I previously mentioned, just reciting strings of numbers is very difficult to place in context on the fly.
Thank you for the expert coverage, Sal.
The question is: how much time will pass until this recent supply chain problem shows up in the books of the SP500 companies?
Good Day Everyone I Have A Good News For Y'all ❤️🇺🇲
I love these analyses. I knew nothing about shipping until I started listening to Sal. No crap. Just wall to wall info. Fantastic!
Is Air freight (which is shipping) doing better because of the Houthis ? Is the west coast getting more freight …because of the houthis ?
The USA cannot repair this piece of useless shit, without sending it to China? Wahad dah? from Australia in 2024
Um, I live in Australia, a BTu means? Being invaded through Alice Springs any time now.
Ridiculous how much ocean carriers are gouging prices right now. Makes things so much more expensive. We had to increase our prices about 12% to get back to normal…
If I was a Houthis located in Australia, I would tell them to fuck off from Alice Springs.
"Give a sailor some money in his pocket, he's going to spend it." Yep, that's been ground truth for a couple thousand years now.
What's being going at Baltimore? Noone seems to be talking about what's happened with that ship and the bridge?
Any comments in here about the picture spelling the word "ship"? Hold your phone out and squint
HI, I tried to look up the "bab el Mandab" drinking reference….. found nothing. Can you explain your "enjoy your drink reference??
Gaza is quite a ways away from the Suez.
Don’t we agree that an east coast strike will never happen? As soon as it’s called, the president will step in an force arbitration ordering workers to keep working?

How will MV Dali make a “safe” transit to China if she can’t go through the Red Sea route? Panama, and then all the way across the pacific? Or around Africa?
Sal, are the Chinese building dual purpose ships, cargo ships into war ships?
Always really like these updates. Thanks!
