S2.E31 - A cautionary tale of Hanjin Shipping
Topic of the Week (10/20/23):
Do you remember the company Hanjin? It was an ocean carrier that filed for bankruptcy in 2016. I thought today might be a good time to revisit the cautionary tale of the Hanjin bankruptcy. There are some parallels I’m noticing between the industry now and that of the early/mid 2010s. It just has me sitting up a little straighter and paying attention a little more closely.
