THE CAPESIZE MARKET CONTINUED TO FALL - FEARNBULK


Handy
The Atlantic market remains stable with more activity from the Black Sea to Feast paying in the mid 20´s on supras.

The USG remains firm paying in the mid 20´s for trips into the MED and low/mid 30´s for trips FE. Nevertheless tonnage is piling up again with ballasters which will push rates downwards in a few weeks unless activity picks up more to absorb tonnage. In the Pacific, there is a tight tonnage supply on prompt positions in China/ SEA for mostly handy up to 45,000 dwt which means rates are on the rise for those sizes. Supras on the other hand, are in abundance. There has also been a high amount of short period activity with charterers scrambling/ hoping to take tonnage ´on the cheap´. The Far East  remains reasonably tight on prompt tonnage, however with activity low and owners resisting. The market for North Pacific/Indo/India for tonnage delivering North China is in the USD 16,000 range.

Panamax
After a slow week with marginal decline in rates the market found supportwith levels moving upwards from mid week.

This was predominantly driven by ECSA and USG grains and short period activity to cover same with owners now able to secure healthy USD 27,000 with equivalent ballast bonus for front haul. Short period was also fairly active with grain traders and operators booking tonnage in the Far East in the mid 17,000 range. Lack of other fresh mineral business in both hemispheres kept a stable but not very enthusiastic sentiment. North Pacific and Pacific business is fixable at mid to upper teens while Atlantic rounds close to 17,000/day. One year period is being secured at 16,500-17,000 but takers are reluctant to pay owners similar levels fo  longer duration.

Capesize
The capesize market continued to fall  through last week bottoming out on Monday at an average time charter rate of USD  9,298.

This has now picked up to USD 10,089 which is still not very exciting. Nonetheless, the paper market is enthused and the front end of the curve has picked up somewhat,but not enough to allow a repeat of the 3 year fixture reported last week. There are takers for this period but they are rateing lower numbers and owners are not ready to accept these figures. On the spot market fixtures remain relatively flat and the Atlantic continues to be stronger than the Pacific. In general, uncertainty due to events in Japan and in the Mediterranean are keeping the market weak, though there could be some more near term activity in the Atlantic due to nuclear plants in Germany being taken off line for safety checks.
