Drewry WCI Moves +0.4% to $2200 as Q1 Rates Hold Near Cycle Lows

Summary

The Drewry WCI composite index moved +0.4% week-on-week to $2200 per 40ft container for the week ending 2026-03-04. Shanghai-Los Angeles held near $2750 and Shanghai-Rotterdam near $2380. Drewry said rates stayed range-bound through Q1 as demand softness offset capacity discipline, and expected only a gradual firming into Q2.
