September is forecast at 2.16 million TEU, up 2.8% year over year; October at 2.13 million TEU, up 2.7% year over year; November at 2.03 million TEU, up 0.3%, and December should pick up slightly at 2.06 million TEU, up 2.5% over last year.
Checked: the figure 2.13 million TEUis stated in this passage. If it does not match, the extraction is wrong and we want to know.
