How to apply it to a cargo

• Breakwave Dry Bulk ETF $13.89 (-2.18%) tracks a freight-futures basket — a Handysize/Supramax voyage still needs a same-day tape.
• WTI $90.81/bbl (+2.87%) feeds bunker. A 10–14 day Cape of Good Hope diversion multiplies that burn.

Map the screen to a real parcel through Maritime Chokepoints, War Risk & Freight Rate Strategy and, where freight dominates the landed bill, vessel chartering or cargo logistics.
