Perhaps you could explain your comment. I’m retired, but I worked in the Container Shipping Industry excess of 35 years, and I saw nothing lacking credibility in this article.

What did you see here that I missed?

It’s not a container shortage. There are vast fields of empty containers right now.

The “shortage” is in subsidies. No one is subsidizing the movement of empty containers from port cities into the Heartland.
