According to data from the Shanghai Shipping Exchange, the freight rate for 20-foot containers sent from Shanghai to Europe in late July was US$7,395, a year-on-year increase of 8.2 times; 40-foot containers sent to the east coast of the United States were US$10,100 each, since 2009 when statistics are available, the US$10,000 mark has been exceeded for the first time; in mid-August, container freight to the West Coast of the United States rose to US$5,744 (40 feet), an increase of 43% from the beginning of the year.
