COALspot.com (Singapore) : VISTAAR Shipping Pte Limited, an experienced ship operator from Singapore, said, the beginning of the week continued to be firm however towards end of the week the freight market appeared to slow down , the main reason could be due to holidays in most parts of the world.

The BDI ended this week at 2786 with a increase of 242 points.
