Morgan Stanley has released a research report on the transportation industry in mainland China and Hong Kong.

In the context of a still soft macroeconomic outlook, Morgan Stanley said supply-side impacts will be even more important, and this year's market will face more opportunities than risks. It will pay attention to supply chain constraints in airlines, compliance capacity tightness in the tanker shipping industry, and market consolidation progress in the courier industry. The report also highlighted certain risks in the container shipping industry due to concerns about supply surplus.
