Ngokunyuka kunye nokuhla korhwebo lwehlabathi, eyona nto yokuqala "kunzima ukufumana ibhokisi" iye yaba "yi-surplus enzima".Kunyaka ophelileyo, awona mazibuko makhulu eUnited States, iLos Angeles neLong Beach, ayexakekile.Iinqanawa ezininzi zafola, zilindele ukothula imithwalo yazo;kodwa ngoku, ngobusuku belona xesha lokuthenga elixakekileyo lonyaka, amazibuko amabini amakhulu “amnyama”.Kukho ukugqithisa okukhulu kwemfuno.

Amazibuko eLos Angeles kunye neLong Beach aphathe izikhongozeli ezingena ngaphakathi ezingama-630,231 ngo-Okthobha, ezantsi ngeepesenti ezingama-26 unyaka nonyaka, kunye nowona mthamo uphantsi wempahla ongena kumazibuko ukusukela ngoMeyi ka-2020, amajelo eendaba axela ngoLwesithathu.

UGene Seroka, intloko yeZibuko laseLos Angeles, uthe akusekho mthwalo osemva, kwaye iPort of Los Angeles ifumana eyona nto ithuleyo ngo-Okthobha ukusukela ngo-2009.

Ngeli xesha, umboneleli wesoftware yeCartesian Systems uthe kwingxelo yakhe yamva nje yorhwebo ukuba izinto ezithunyelwa ngaphandle zase-US zehle nge-13% ngo-Okthobha ukusuka kunyaka ongaphambili, kodwa zazingaphezulu kwamanqanaba ka-Okthobha ka-2019.Uhlalutyo lubonise ukuba isizathu esona sizathu "sokuzola" kukuba abathengisi kunye nabavelisi baye banciphisa ii-odolo ezivela phesheya ngenxa yoluhlu oluphezulu okanye imfuno yokuwa.USeroka uthe: “Sixele kwangaphambili ngoMeyi ukuba uluhlu olugqithisileyo, isiphumo se-bullwhip esingaguqukiyo, siya kuyipholisa imakethi yempahla ekhulayo.Ngaphandle kwexesha lokuthumela ngenqanawa, abathengisi bazirhoxisile iiodolo zaphesheya kwaye iinkampani zothutho ziye zanciphisa umthamo ngaphambi koLwesihlanu oMnyama kunye neKrisimesi.Phantse zonke iinkampani zinee-inventri ezinkulu, njengoko kubonisiwe kwi-inventri-to-sale ratio, ekwinqanaba eliphezulu kumashumi eminyaka, inyanzela abarhwebi ukuba banciphise ukuthunyelwa kwababoneleli baphesheya kweelwandle.

Imfuno yabathengi base-US nayo iqhubekile nokuba buthathaka.Kwikota yesithathu, inkcitho yokusetyenziswa komntu yase-US ikhule ngesantya sonyaka se-1.4% kwikota ngekota, ngaphantsi kwexabiso langaphambili le-2%.Ukusetyenziswa kwempahla ehlala ixesha elide kunye nempahla ehlala ixesha elide kuhleli kungalunganga, kunye nokusetyenziswa kwenkonzo nako kuye kwaba buthathaka.Njengoko uSeroka watshoyo, inkcitho yabathengi kwizinto ezihlala ixesha elide njengefenitshala kunye nezixhobo zombane yehlile.

Amaxabiso eekhonteyina ehlile njengoko abathumeli-mpahla kumazwe angaphandle, abathwaxwa zizintlu zempahla, baye bathoba iiodolo.

Ilifu elimnyama lokudodobala koqoqosho lwehlabathi alijinganga kuphela kushishino lweenqanawa, kodwa nakwishishini lezomoya.
