洛杉矶，9月9日（路透社）——美国最繁忙的远洋集装箱港口执行董事周三表示，因零售商赶运货物以规避新增关税和高昂燃油成本，洛杉矶港在6、7、8月创下了三个月货运量新纪录。
为赶在总统唐纳德·特朗普的新关税（此前被法院推翻的关税将被重新实施）以及与伊朗战争相关的航运合同燃油成本上涨之前抢先备货，今年进口商提前数月将货物运抵美国港口，其中包括万圣节服装、感恩节装饰用品以及光明节和圣诞节礼品。

洛杉矶港码头的 waterfront 工人8月份处理了955,907个标准集装箱（TEU），使得三个月总货运量达到290万标准箱——打破了新冠疫情期间航运热潮创下的此前纪录。
传统上，零售商的货运量占集装箱航运总量的近一半。经济学家、金融分析师和贸易分析师密切关注远洋集装箱进口数据，因为这些数据反映了依赖消费者支出的美国经济健康状况。
“6月可能是我们的峰值，”洛杉矶港执行董事吉恩·塞罗卡在一场针对节日进口的媒体吹风会上表示。

“其中很大一部分已经到港，但我们预计未来几个月还会有货物持续流入，”零售行业领袖协会（RILA）首席执行官布莱恩·多奇在谈及节日相关进口时说道。
美国全国零售联合会（NRF）供应链与海关政策副总裁乔纳森·戈尔德表示，部分进口货物因中国恶劣天气以及巴拿马运河因潜在干旱状况改道而延误。
“尽管面临关税、通胀和高燃油价格，消费者仍在持续购物，零售商也一直在备货以满足需求，”戈尔德说道。
“今年下半年我们有理由保持乐观，当然还有零售行业的‘超级碗’——也就是假日购物季，”零售行业领袖协会的多奇在谈及可能决定企业盈利成败的年末零售期时表示。

LOS ANGELES, Sept 9 (Reuters) – The Port of Los Angeles set a new three-month volume record during June, July and August after retailers rushed in goods to avoid new tariffs and higher fuel costs, the executive director of the nation’s busiest ocean container port said on Wednesday.
Halloween costumes, Thanksgiving decor and Hanukkah and Christmas gifts are among the goods that surged into to U.S. seaports a few months earlier than usual this year after importers raced to front-run President Donald Trump’s tariffs replacing those struck down by the courts and shipping contract fuel cost increases tied to the Iran war.

Waterfront workers at the Port of Los Angeles handled 955,907 20-foot equivalent units (TEUs) in August, taking the three-month total to 2.9 million TEUs – beating the previous record set during the COVID-19 shipping boom.
Retailers traditionally account for nearly half of container shipping volume. Economists, financial analysts and traders analysts monitor ocean container imports because they reflect the health of the consumer-spending-dependent US economy.
“June was probably our peak,” Gene Seroka, executive director of the Port of Los Angeles, said during a media briefing focused on holiday imports.

“A good chunk of it is already here, but we’ll see that continue to flow in the next couple of months,” said Brian Dodge, CEO of the Retail Industry Leaders Association (RILA), said of holiday-related imports.
Some imports were delayed due to severe weather in China and some rerouting away from the Panama Canal amid potential drought conditions there, said Jonathan Gold, vice president for supply chain and customs policy at the National Retail Federation (NRF).
“Consumers keep buying despite tariffs, inflation and high fuel prices, and retailers keep bringing in merchandise to meet demand,” Gold said.
“There’s cause for optimism as we head into the back half of this year, and certainly retail Super Bowl, which is the holiday shopping season,” RILA’s Dodge said of the year-end retail period that can make or break company profits.
