LA port chief on how the Iran war is impacting global trade

Season 2026 Episode 58 | 5m 08s

As the war with Iran continues, businesses and shipping companies are growing increasingly concerned about potential disruptions to the global supply chain. So far, major ports in the U.S. are operating normally, but there are real questions about how long that stability can hold. Geoff Bennett discussed what this could mean for global trade with Gene Seroka of the Port of Los Angeles.
