The BDI was down by 5.81 pct and closing at 1,296 points, whereas cape index was down by 2.98 pct and closed at 1,564 points. The panama index was most affected which was down by almost 11 pct and closed at 1,514 points. The Supramax index was down by 2.95 pct and closed at 1,414 points, whereas the handy size index was up by 1.27 pct and closed at 796 pct.

The market appears will continue to be soft next week also. The bunker prices have soften a bit and overall the freight are expected to be soft.
