Evergreen wraps up 2023 as the shipping industry leader

Evergreen wraps up 2023 as the shipping industry leader

Posted on February 5, 2024 |

Global schedule reliability experienced a notable drop of 5.0% in December 2023 to 56.8%, primarily due to heightened tensions in the Red Sea.

December 2023 marked the second-lowest schedule reliability of the year, with a modest 0.4% increase compared to the same month in 2022.

The round-of-Africa sailings led to a decline in average delays for late vessel arrivals, increasing by 0.30 days month-over-month to 5.35 days.

Among the top 13 carriers, Evergreen ranked as the most reliable in December 2023, boasting schedule reliability of 63.6%, followed closely by CMA CGM, the only other carrier exceeding the 60% mark.

Six carriers maintained schedule dependability within the 50-60% range, while the remaining five carriers fell into the 40-50% schedule reliability range, with Yang Ming having the lowest at 45.6% in December 2023.

None of the top 13 carriers showed improvement in schedule reliability on a month-over-month basis due to increasing transit durations across Africa, and only four carriers exhibited improvement year-over-year.

1. Digital Fairness: How Your Sentiment is Calculated

Methodology & Fairness Statement: To ensure a fair and relevant market outlook, our system uses a weighted decay model to prevent outdated sentiment from skewing current forecasts.

The Active Window: We only count 100% of votes from the current month and the 50% most recent votes from the previous month. Votes older than 60 days are purged from the calculation entirely.

Neutrality Bias: To prevent exaggerated market trends, if "Stable" votes outnumber directional votes, the forecast remains flat.

Opposition Awareness: If the community is divided (e.g., many positive and negative votes), our algorithm automatically flattens the visual slope of the forecast to reflect the lack of consensus. This ensures the graph represents "Community Vibe" rather than an artificial consensus.

2. Data Rights: GDPR & Privacy Notice

Your Voting Rights & Privacy: Your participation in our market surveys is designed with Privacy by Design principles in accordance with GDPR.

Anonymization: Votes are collected as anonymous data points. We do not link your specific directional vote to your personal identity in any public-facing output.

Storage & Time-Stamping: Each vote is time-stamped to ensure it is only used within its relevant 60-day window.

The "Right to be Forgotten": Because votes are month-bound and expire from the active calculation after the previous month closes, your sentiment data is naturally phased out of our live forecasting model every XX days.
