OWNERS WERE STILL BULLISH ON SHORT PERIOD NUMBERS, BUT CHARTERERS IN GENERAL WERE NOT READY TO PAY - BRS


SUPRA / HANDY 

After several weeks of a rising market, the BSI lost 9% last week to close on Friday at US$ 27,677 per day for the TC routes. Rates were under pressure in both basins due to a lack of prompt stems. In the Continent, Supras are getting low/mid US$ 30,000s for a TCT to the east Med with scrap. In the USG a modern 53,000 tonner was fixed at US$ 38,000 with redelivery in the Continent - about US$ 10,000 less than the previous week. In Brazil, most of the grain exporting ports have around 2 weeks congestion. Supras are getting high US$ 20,000s per day basis delivery west Africa redelivery Skaw/ Passero.

With India as the backbone of the Pacific recently, March loaders were able to get the higher numbers, with ships fixing in the low US$ 50,000s on the west coast, mid US$  40,000s on the east coast, both for trips China, and ballasters from China/Far East loading in India in the region of mid to midhigh US$ 20,000s.

This kept the Pacific firm for the first half of the week, together with a number of stems out of Nopac and Australia (around mid US$ 20,000s), and Indonesia (high teens to low/mid US$ 20,000s). However, rates came off towards the end of the week, as vessels that could make March dates were fixed, and the market took a breather on April positions. Owners were still bullish on short period numbers, with many talking mid to mid/high US$ 20,000s for deliveries in the Far East, but charterers in general were not ready to pay those levels. 

PANAMAX

The Panamax market witnessed a substantial correction as rates tumbled across both basins, as  the BPI dropped 379 points and the average of the 4 time charter routes fell US$ 3,034 on the week.  Weaker sentiment and a lack of fresh enquiry, together with a lack of support both from the paper market and the Capes, succeeded in pushing rates down. The Atlantic saw round voyage rates slip to the low US$ 30,000s region and upper US$ 20,000s for the equivalent round voyage in the Pacific basin. There was very little period activity of note to report as charterers backed away with paper values falling. With Easter holidays in Europe at end of this week pending, one would expect to see a similar trend in the market with sentiment still down.

CAPESIZE 

A less dramatic drop in Capesize rates this week, with the BCI losing 8% and the four time charter average dropping 11% to finish the week at US$ 28,542/day. Despite falling congestion in China, weather problems in Australia have kept delays there high and around 85 Capes are reported to be anchored outside the main Australian ports with wait times of well over a month ahead of them. Weak demand on the Atlantic penalised that market, although conditions were better in the Pacific. By week end, it appeared conditions had stabilized, with the BCI losing just 4 points on Friday, and rising marginally by one point on Monday. Short period business was also concluded at rates above the spot market, with a 178,000 tonner reportedly taken ex yard in April for four to six months trading at US$ 37,000 per day.
