Major shipping companies fuel an industry boom with record $90 billion vessel orders, but the overcapacity threat looms.
The world's major shipping companies, backed by their pandemic profits, are investing in new vessels at an unprecedented scale. The global order pipeline has reached an almost historic level of $90 billion. Companies such as MSC, Maersk, CMA CGM, and Hapag-Lloyd are contributing to an industry boom.
