THE HANDY MARKET CONTINUED TO SLIDE DOWN - BRS
 There were marginal increases in rates for the larger sizes this week, with the Cape index remaining stable and the Panamax index logging a 5% increase. The rise in Panamax rates represents the first positive development in some time after almost seven weeks of consecutive declines. Even with the small gain seen this week, the Panamax 4TC has lost 70% of its value since early March. Of course, coal shipments have been severely disrupted by weather related factors, and this week China reported a 25% decline in its coal imports over the first three months of 2011. This stands in sharp contrast to its iron ore imports which rose nearly 10% in the same period.
Capesize
Holidays in Europe reduced activity in the Atlantic, although a period of fixing by the mining groups in the Pacific kept activity ticking over there. Overall the BCI inched up 1% while the time charter average closed the week at just under US$ 6,700. With worldwide steel production continuing to rise (up 7% in March), demand for iron ore remains strong. However with an average 27 ships joining the fleet each month, supply continues to outpace demand. In the paper market, rates picked up across the board and short-term prices strengthened. Prices are now US$ 10,700 and US$ 11,160 for June and July respectively.
Panamax
The Panamax market saw very quiet conditions in both the Atlantic and Pacific this week, mainly due to the long weekend in the East. There was plenty of tonnage still available in both basins and the time charter rates barely managing to break into four digits for the Atlantic and Pacific round voyages. Fronthauls were being fixed in the low US$ 20,000s. Period activity also declined, with rates still in the low teens for short periods of 3-5 or 4-6 months.
Handysize
Last week activity remained slow due to the holidays in the east. The Handy market continued to slide down, and the TC average closed the week at US$ 11,897 compared to US$ 11,985 the week before. Supras remained steady and finished the week at US$ 14,530 led by the route USG/skaw –Passero. East coast South America remains the leading actor in the Atlantic with wheat and sugar traded to various destinations. A few fixtures have been done from USG to Cont/Med at around US$ 17,000 for Handies and US$ 24,000 for the Supras. The Mediterranean/Black Sea market remained lacking in action. In the east, rates continued to slids down for both Handies and Supras. Supras were fixed from Indonesia to China at around US$ 17,000 with mainly coal, and around US$ 14,000 from India to China. A few Supras have been taken for 4-6 months at around US$ 15,000 delivery India.
