Suez Canal
Suez Canal Shipping Data
The Suez Canal is a critical artery for global trade and energy markets. Global Macro Pulse from FinzData delivers daily ship transits and capacity by vessel type through the Suez Canal since 2019, helping traders, economists and data scientists monitor supply chain shifts, freight demand and macro signals in real time.
Why the Suez Canal matters
The Suez Canal connects Asia with Europe and the Mediterranean, shaping container, dry bulk, tanker and general cargo flows. Daily transits and capacity by vessel type reveal changes in trade routes, port congestion and shipping demand that feed into inflation, commodity and freight market narratives.
- Container and dry bulk movements signal consumer and industrial demand
- Tanker transits reflect energy trade patterns
- Roll-on/roll-off and general cargo track automotive and project shipments
