While we like to think of global trade as a slow, steady dance of comparative advantage, these sudden, erratic spikes often tell a much more calculated story. The most common culprit? Transshipment. This is the art of rerouting goods through a third, unrelated country to disguise their true origin. Why go through the trouble? Usually, it is to dodge tariffs, bypass sanctions, or sneak around import quotas.
