• A cargo ship that sailed from the US carrying $20 million worth of soybeans was circling off the Chinese coast for over a month.
• The ship became an internet sensation on Chinese social media as it raced to deliver its cargo last month before new Beijing tariffs took effect.
• On Saturday, the Peak Pegasus finally docked, presumably to deliver its soybeans.

BEIJING (Reuters) - A ship carrying soybeans from the United States docked in the port of Dalian on Saturday, more than a month after it arrived off China's coast just hours after hefty tariffs were imposed on US goods, according to Thomson Reuters Eikon shipping data.

The short journey into the northern Chinese port was the first by Peak Pegasus, which has 70,000 tonnes of US soybeans on board, since it arrived off the coast on July 6 shortly after Beijing imposed 25% import duties on $34 billion worth of US goods, including soybeans.See the rest of the story at Business Insider
