Federal investigators say the Dali containership lost power several times in the hours before the vessel crashed into Baltimore’s Francis Scott Key Bridge. The preliminary report from the National Transportation Safety Board looks closely at the ship’s electrical system, including the actions by the crew as the Dali lost power twice minutes after it left the Port of Baltimore. The WSJ’s Scott Calvert, Costas Paris and Paul Berger write that one blackout about 10 hours before the disaster came after a crew member mistakenly closed an engine exhaust damper, the report said, and a second outage was related to insufficient fuel pressure for a generator. The findings provide the most detailed account so far of the crash that killed six road-crew workers and largely shut down the Port of Baltimore. Now, investigators will try to determine whether the dockside blackouts had an impact on the accident.

Authorities carried out a controlled demolition to free a containership from the wreckage of the Francis Scott Key Bridge on Monday. This WSJ Video shows the charges detonating, collapsing the bridge beams from the Dali and exposing the heavy damage to the vessel.  The Port of Baltimore is expected to reopen most operations after the ship is removed.

President Biden’s decision to sharply increase tariffs on some Chinese goods and extend levies on others will trigger new evaluations of trans-Pacific supply chains. The president raised tariffs on China-manufactured electric vehicles to roughly 100%, boosted tariffs on steel and aluminum products, doubled the levy on semiconductors and added a new duty of 25% on shipping cranes. The WSJ’s Andrew Duehren and Andrew Restuccia report the White House moves also effectively make Trump administration tariffs a permanent feature of U.S. trade relations with China. Under Biden, the U.S. has been spending billions to build up domestic manufacturing capacity for electric vehicles, semiconductors and other industries. But as the Chinese economy has slumped, officials there doubled down on production in the same industries the U.S. was targeting. Biden administration officials fear Chinese output will push down prices globally, undercutting U.S. companies and putting the Biden administration’s subsidies to waste.
