In this period of uncertainty for shippers, the Australian Peak Shippers Association Secretariat has ramped up efforts to hold shipping lines accountable to minimum notification periods and most major liner services appear to be obliging.

Section 10.41(2) of Part X mandates that shipping lines who are party to registered conference agreements must provide the designated shipper body – APSA - with "at least 30 days' notice of any change in negotiable shipping arrangements". "Negotiable shipping arrangements" is defined in section 10.41 (3) (a) to include "freight rates, charges for inter-terminal transport services, frequency of sailings and ports of call" - full article HERE

Trade wars are expanding the tensions in the Middle East and seem to be escalating towards war. Gold has touched $1,400 and US 10 Year Bond yields slipped below 2%, while Oil spiked to over $58/barrel. The promise of further stimulus to combat all these rising threats has fuelled a big rally in global equities. ... read more
