I looked but could not find a similar report on container shipping volume/demand

Do you know of such?

My little business’s volume is a function of container shipping. So Far, it looks like August ‘10 is the worst month in 15 years and that includes the month it began.

I would imagine that your “boots-on-the-ground” experience is a more accurage measurement than any ‘bent/folded/stapled/mutilated’ Government ‘report’...

I've seen one posted on FR before but I don't know what it was.
