Disruptions in the Red Sea due to attacks by Yemeni Houthi rebels are causing freight rate spikes and potential inflationary pressures. The Red Sea/Suez Canal corridor, accounting for 12% of global trade, is being avoided by freight companies, leading to longer shipping routes and higher costs. Maersk (OTCPK: AMKBY) has imposed a surcharge, and oil prices have risen, with BP (NYSE:BP) suspending oil shipments through the region. The United States Oil Fund (NYSE:USO) ETF tracking light-sweet crude oil prices has seen an increase. Delays and higher freight rates may affect product availability and prices, with Europe likely to feel the impact more than the U.S.
