Got good news and bad news for your today, freight podcast friend.

Good news? The Houthis said they would stop firing on ships in the Red Sea (but container liners aren't holding their breath).

The bad news? A 48% increase in China - US West Coast rates (and a confusing 3% drop on China - US East Coast).

Ready for a game of GRI Madness? Then how about throwing in a healthy dose of tariff Supreme Court indicators to round it out?

Also, do us a solid and share this episode with someone.
