The iron imports by China saw slight gains in May and will have to see if they would increase the imports. However is seems that the imports will be almost steady/soft due to high inventories. The coal demand by India and China has been steady and has been supporting with fairly large volume, Capt. Reddy, Director Vistaar Shipping says.

The sale of second hand of ships remained fairly good and prices were holding firm , which seems that some owners are taking advantage of low prices.

The EC India/China (S7 route) also softened by 10.14 pct and closed at US$ 11446 per day (last week US$ 12738 per day) , the main reason could be towards monsoon.  The S6 and S7 routes likely to be soft next week.

The futures for three years (2011-2013) was at around Cape/US$ 15000 per day, Panamax/US$ 14000 per day, Supramax/US$ 13500 per day , Handy size/US$ 10500 per day.
