right now is the beginning of the peak season for shipping the finished retail goods which will stock our retail stores.

I have a family member whose job it is to configure the shipment loads of the big freighters going in and out of, mostly, Long Beach. I'm going to give her a call and see what kinds of changes she's seeing. The last time she talked, the number of ships and cargo going out of the U.S. had been drastically reduced, as well as the shipments coming in from China.
