This article, while a bit troubling, is offbase.

All of the XMas stuff is here already. If it's still on the boat, it ain't gonna be on the shelf by Christmas.

It would be more accurate to compare October 1 shipping amounts to last year, or maybe the last 5 years, then look for trending.

But, that wouldn't get lurid headlines.

I passed by a Walmart container facility that receives TEUs from the port about a month ago and that facility was basically full with little room for more containers to be received.
