The current ocean freight market continues to be powered by rocket fuel. As we approach Chinese New Year in the next few weeks, we no longer has the typical forward loaded market. Every day is forward loaded. As we approach a new American political administration, the euphoria of additional stimulus will keep all operations centered around ocean freight fully engaged for sometime to come. So the crisis continues, pandemic fueled by consumerism since the service industry continues to flail.\nTo help navigate the next few months, FreightWaves, as part of Global Supply Chain weeks adds a Maritime component \u2013 a Global Maritime Congress, free to all \u2013 during March 1-3. Ocean freight operations and how all the parts fit would not be complete without the human element, enabling people to preserve and rise to their full potential within our industry.\nToday, Steve speaks with his special guest, author Elaine Pofeldt as she discusses her new book \u201cThe Million Dollar, One Person Business\u201d arriving everywhere on 1/19.
