Supply chain radar: Hapag-Lloyd only half way through its epic plunge?

Transparency, what a great thing that is.
Look at you, darling
First off, I deeply apologise if you are bored to death with the latest Hapag-Lloyd coverage – we have talked about the German carrier extensively (more here and here) already in the past couple of weeks.

Yet, notably, the stock dropped below €70 on Tuesday, down almost 63% since peak on 15 May– we hadn’t been there since early April.

Based on the Q1 financial results of 11 carriers, and taking an average for the lines that do not report their financials, New York-based consultancy Blue Alpha Capital estimates the collective bottom line for the …
