Beachgoers look at a cargo ship loaded with containers in Lisbon, Portugal, on September 1, 2024. The cost of shipping goods from China to Europe increases, hitting record highs due to a shortage of empty cargo containers, Russia's invasion of Ukraine, and other disruptions in global trade. The average cost of shipping a standard large container surpasses $15,000. (Photo by Luis Boza/NurPhoto via Getty Images)
