Last month’s throughput also declined by 3.2% month-on-month from 2.49m teu recorded in January this year.

Can we even collapse with interest rates so low in US, Eurozone and China?? We have imbalances like 2007 after a long so called recovery but back then look where the yield curve was and where oil prices were. Dollar was weak then commodities across the board very strong but is all quite the opposite now.. So seems like a mixed muddle through bag to me for a few more years at least before the reaper comes calling. Like Jay says take care of health and family is most important.
