This overview is a pure rollup over the same data behind our deep analytics pages. It fetches no new source, so it can never drift from them. Fleet, age and orderbook come from our tracked fleet and the orderbook feed; secondhand pricing is the outlier-screened trailing-365d median $/dwt; the freight index is shown under our own generic name (CONTAINER and GAS have no licensed index today and are left blank). Figures are honest to the underlying sample: a thin segment is flagged. Computed 2026-10-15.
