Donald Trump's latest tariff hike stands to create the greatest risk for containerships since most Chinese goods head to the US, analysts say.
The Trump administration on Friday raised a 10% tariff on $200bn in Chinese imports to 25%, bringing $250bn of goods — half of those coming to the US — under the higher tax.
Dry bulk and container shipping stocks remained mostly stable last week, but boxships sector may be most vulnerable to the US' latest move against the major economy, Morgan Stanley's Fotis Giannakoulis says.
