By Staff -- Logistics Management, 4/1/1999

U.S. statistics suggest that deep-sea inbound and outbound liner rates are relatively calm at the moment. Outbound rates held steady from January to February 1999. Inbound liner rates fell 5.5% from January to February. But the damage from last year's cargo crunch remains a problem. Since June 1998, outbound liner rates have jumped 34.4%. Prospects for continued rate hikes during the 1999 holiday shipping season loom large. % CHANGE VS.: 1 month ago 6 mos. ago 1 yr. ago

Outbound liner 0.0 -5.7 -2.4

Domestic deep sea -0.7 0.0 +3.0
