Two snippets from FreightWaves' post "Xi's Lockdowns Will Pull The Rug Out From Under US Truckers This Summe" (via ZeroHedge):
According to SONAR’s ocean intelligence dashboard, it currently takes 27 days for a vessel to travel from a Chinese port to a U.S. port. Since the volume of containers from China to the U.S. started its drop on April 6, it will likely be May 3 before U.S. ports experience a drop in volume.
And when will the U.S. trucking companies feel the effect?
It takes approximately 10 days to three weeks after a vessel arrives in the U.S. before the containers that traveled on board enter the domestic surface freight market. This would put a slowdown in trucking freight volumes related to Chinese imports between May 13 and May 24.
Yes, yes. But can you give me a time on the 13th?
