JPMorgan sees European transport market challenges to continue in 2026, with ongoing freight demand-supply imbalances and risks of oversupply in the short-haul market
The broker expects a demand-supply imbalance in the freight sector, particularly in container shipping, where oversupply could pressure rates further
DSV DSV.CO and IAG ICAG.L are JPM's top picks for 2026 due to their strategic positioning and cost-cutting measures
Oversupply in the short-haul market could impact pricing and profitability, JPM says, adding long-haul carriers like Air France-KLM AIRF.PA and Lufthansa LHAG.DE could benefit from more favourable supply-demand dynamics
