MONTHLY BRIEF

The OECD Composite Leading Indicator is dropping 18 consecutive months in the US, 16 in Europe, and 21 in China. The crude oil price is weakening due to the World Economic Outlook and strengthening of the dollar.
The SCFI index fell to 1,061 points on the first week of 2023, a 79% decrease compared to its peak in January 2022. The gap for the global containers in 2023 is likely to widen greatly due to the worsening of the demand and the increase of the remaining supply.
The downturn of the jet fuel cost and the FSC is continuing following the weakening of the crude oil price. The TAC Index has been falling consecutively: 4 months in the Hong Kong-Europe route and 7 months in the Hong Kong-America route.
