Maersk Raises Guidance Again on Higher Freight Rates and Resilient Demand

A.P. Moller-Maersk raised its full-year guidance for the third time this year, citing resilient global trade and higher freight rates. Capacity constraints linked to severe typhoons in East Asia and shipping disruptions from the Strait of Hormuz closure have lifted rates, while consumer spending and investment in electrification, energy and AI infrastructure support demand. The latest revision follows guidance increases in June and August 2026; the article does not provide specific financial figures or stock-price movements.
