About 12 percent of total global trade moves through the Suez Canal. Experts have warned that this incident will likely result in shipping delays of everyday items for consumers around the world.[30] Lloyd's List estimates that every day it takes to clear the obstruction will disrupt an additional US$9 billion worth of goods.[31][32] A rise in oil prices was attributed to "people buying in after recent declines in oil prices, with the Suez closing the trigger factor", and that due to existing stocks "a few days of slowdown in [oil] delivery is not critical to the market".[33] Maritime transport specialist Camille Egloff of the Boston Consulting Group noted that "all traffic arriving from Asia goes through the Suez Canal" making it an "absolutely critical" passage, but with respect to oil, there were other supply sources.[34] Others noted that the event will only delay goods, which might only impact industries with existing shortages such as with semiconductors. To mitigate shortages of goods in the long term, it has been stated that future shipments can be ordered earlier than normal until the difference has been made up.[33][34] However, a consultant at another firm noted that even a short-term disruption at the Suez Canal would have a domino effect for several months along the supply chain.[35]
