    News in Brief Podcast | Week 12 2026 |Capacity squeeze, Rate rise & Network shifts 

    This week, we unpack the latest developments in the Middle East and what a continued disruption means for global supply chains.  Host Charlotte Goldstone is joined by Freightos’ head of research, Judah Levine, for a data-driven look at how ongoing conflict, airspace closures, and shipping reroutes are reshaping both air and ocean freight markets. With Gulf carriers under pressure, we explore the extent of the air cargo capacity squeeze and what it’s doing to rates across key lanes.  On the ocean side, the picture is more nuanced. Despite disruption concerns — from Hormuz risks to fuel price volatility — rate increases haven’t surged as sharply as expected. So what’s actually happening beneath the surface?  Later, Gavin van Marle joins the conversation to break down emerging supply chain patterns, including shifting trade routes, the growing role of alternative hubs like Jeddah, and the broader balance between supply, demand, and geopolitical uncertainty.  Plus: the latest premium stories and what’s been moving the market this week all in just 20 minutes.

    News in Brief Podcast | Week 11 2026 | Supply chains are more uncertain than ever

    Escalating tensions in the Middle East are once again creating uncertainty for global supply chains. In this episode, host Charlotte Goldstone is joined by Marco Forgione, director general of the UK’s Chartered Institute of Export & International Trade, to discuss the latest developments in the conflict and what they could mean for global trade flows, oil prices and supply chain resilience. They also look at tariff developments and whether shippers are changing their strategies in response. Charlotte is then joined by Alex Lennane, publisher of The Loadstar, to run through the latest airfreight developments, including airspace disruptions across the Middle East, tightening capacity and rising fuel costs. Plus, a two-day cockpit crew strike across the Lufthansa Group and the latest twist in the ongoing Panama ports dispute involving Cosco, Maersk and MSC. Finally, Peter Sand, chief analyst at Xeneta, shares the latest data on ocean freight spot rates and explains how geopolitical tensions and capacity shifts are shaping the market. He also offers advice for shippers and forwarders navigating an increasingly volatile freight environment. Hear all the important points of last week's supply chain news in just over 20 minutes!

    News in Brief Podcast | Week 10 2026 | Geopolitical escalation and TPM26

    Global supply chains are once again navigating turbulent waters. In this episode, we break down the immediate logistics fallout from the escalating conflict in the Middle East – from the closure of the Strait of Hormuz and vessels turning back mid-voyage, to collapsing air cargo capacity as Gulf airspace shuts down. What could this mean for freight rates, fuel markets, and global capacity? Charlotte Goldstone is joined by Alex Lennane to unpack the biggest stories of the week, including the early impacts on ocean and air freight, the legal debate around force majeure, and the latest developments on US tariff refunds. Later, Gavin van Marle checks in from TPM in Long Beach with the key themes dominating conversations at the industry’s biggest gathering. All this plus much more, in just 20 minutes!

    News in Brief Podcast | Week 9 2026 | Tariff turmoil, Refund frenzy and Panama saga

    Last week’s news of the US Supreme Court ruling striking down Trump’s IEEPA tariffs has sent shockwaves through global supply chains but now comes the hard part: getting your money back. In this episode, we unpack the fallout of the tariff revocation. With potentially $100bn–$300bn in duties up for refund, the process is already shaping up to be complex, litigation-heavy and politically fraught. We discuss the emerging secondary market for tariff refund claims, why some SMEs are selling their rights for cents on the dollar and what FedEx’s landmark legal move could mean for other corporates seeking repayment. Ocean spot rates remain muted amid the Chinese New Year lull, but could a restocking surge send transpac rates soaring? With carriers eyeing March GRIs of up to $3,000 and early signals pointing to higher 2026 contract rates, we examine what tariff reversal could mean for capacity, pricing and negotiations at TPM. Plus, a look into the current dynamics shaping the air freight market, weather disruptions at major US hubs, Wistech earnings, and much much more, all in just 20 minutes!

    The Loadstar Podcast with Container Trades Statistics: Unpacking 2025

    Global container shipping had a rollercoaster year in 2025, and the numbers tell a fascinating story. In this episode of The Loadstar Podcast, host Charlotte Goldstone is joined by CEO of Container Trades Satistics (CTS) Nigel Pusey and The Loadstar’s managing editor Gavin van Marle to break down the biggest shifts in volumes, pricing and trade lanes over the past year. From surging intra-Asia and Far East–Europe growth to a sharp decline on the transpacific, the trio unpack how tariffs, geopolitics and the China+1 strategy reshaped global flows. They dive into why freight rates fell nearly 20% year-on-year despite strong demand, where peak season really showed up, and how secondary trades quietly stole the spotlight. Plus, there’s a scorecard moment as past predictions are put to the test, and some bold new forecasts are made for 2026 that may or may not age well. Data-driven, opinionated and refreshingly honest, this is essential listening for anyone trying to make sense of today’s container markets.
