The supramax index was up by 1.43 pct closing at 853 points. The handy size index continued to be soft and was down by 4.43 pct closing at 474 points.

The Supramax freight market was soft from Indonesia to India and Supramax vessels were trading around US$ 6,000 delivery South China and around US$ 8000 delivery SE Asia  for trip to India. Short Period charter rates for Supramax and Panamax was around US$ 8,000-8,500 per day. The freight rates are expected to be steady next week.
