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.

The momentum of Chinese imports of iron ore / coal seemed to be steady and needs to be seen whether this will be maintained over the next few weeks.

The monsoons is expected to hit West Coast India early this year and the iron ore shipments will slow down from west coast India.

The week continued to see Ships vessels ballasting to South America / Black sea from India / PG range being  fixed at around US$ 16,000 per day.
