The chart posted above is the Baltic Dry Index, which is an index of charges in the dry bulk shipping sector, which has nothing to do with containerized shipping. I don’t have any charts handy for the history of global containerized trade.

So the BDI shows TEUs, not the dollar value of shipping, right?
