The UPS F-35 saga: Beijing needs nothing ‘exotic’ to hurt America

The “UPS or Ceva” framing that ran for days at the end of last month turns out to have been the wrong question. It was never either-or. UPS carried the shipment. It may not even have been Ceva that was involved but rather DSV, if you trust Bloomberg. Yesterday, we duly asked the Danish forwarder to comment on the following parts (emphasis in bold was added) of Bloomberg‘s story (titled ‘UPS worker missed ...

Isaias strengthens to become first Atlantic hurricane of 2026 season

Storm expected to make landfall on US’s northern Gulf coast with risk of flash floods and isolated river flooding Isaias has become the first Atlantic hurricane of the 2026 season, with wind speeds of 80mph and a minimum pressure of 975mb. It is expected to strengthen to a category 2 hurricane as it approaches the US’s northern Gulf coast on Friday, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). As a result of the strong El Niño , it has been a notably quiet Atlantic hurricane season. The first hurricane of the season has not formed this late since 8 October 1905, which pre-dates the satellite era (1960s) for tracking hurricanes that has allowed for more non-landfall hurricanes to be discovered.

Tradelanes: Intra-Asia freight rates ease after post-Covid high

Intra-Asia container freight rates have marginally eased after hitting a post-Covid high prior to China’s Golden Week holiday, with elevated fuel costs, geopolitical disruptions, and operational constraints continuing to support the market. The Drewry Intra-Asia Container Index (IACI) Composite Index declined 1% this week, to $1,503 per 40ft, ending six consecutive weeks of increases.

Analysis: Driverless trucking – from proving drivers to proving businesses

Key takeaway: Commercial driverless trucking is shifting the debate from whether a truck can drive itself on a defined highway route to whether the business can scale; how much of a driver’s cost the technology company keeps, whether the trucks get built on schedule, and who funds the years before the business pays for itself. The next twelve months will begin to test the companies’ answers. Aurora Innovation used its September ...
