COALspot.com - This week the indices showed some signs of improvement will all the segments moving up except for the handy size.

The BDI was marginally up by 3 points closing at 717 points. The Cape and Panamax index was up by about 2.7 pct closing at 1,124 points and 828 points respectively. 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.

According to Vistaar Shipping Singapore, the supramax index in the far east (S8 route) was down by 3.20 pct and closed at US$ 6,345  per day (last week US$ 6,148 per day) and S7 route  was down by 2.19 pct  and closed at US$ 4,820 per day (last week US$ 4,928 per day) . “Both routes likely to be soft next week”, said, Capt. Reddy, director of Vistaar Shipping.
