Shipping has faced multiple geopolitical shocks in the first half of 2026 so where are markets headed in the remainder of the year?

In this episode, we take a comprehensive look at the shipping markets as we head into the second half of 2026.

Join Marcus Hand and the experts from Maritime Strategies International (MSI), including Adam Kent, Daniel Richards, Will Fray, and Tim Smith, as they analyse the current state and future outlook for container shipping, dry bulk shipping, tankers, and shipbuilding.

Looking back on the first half of the year Adam Kent, Managing Director of MSI comments, “We didn't think that the world is shipping to get any more complex. I think 2026 has certainly shown us otherwise.
