RATES FOR CAPES MOVED DECISIVELY NORTH THIS WEEK - INTERMODAL


COALspot.com - Right when the BDI seemed ready for another dive below the 1000 points level, the Dry Bulk market made significant comeback this week, attributed entirely to the stellar performance of the Capesize segment, Intermodal said in its latest weekly report.

Intermodal’s weekly research report further indicated that, rates for Capes moved decisively north this week, with fixing activity firing up in both basins. Some big names like Vale come to the rescue by concluding a significant number of fixtures in the Atlantic, while at the same time the trans-Atlantic round voyage surpassed the $ 12,000/ day level.

Rates for the segment have been moving pretty much in a yo-yo pattern, thus not allowing owners to crack open the champagne bottles just yet. Saying that, it wasn't long ago that the average rate was quoted at the low $4000/day, so it might be safe to say that a new flow has been created just below $ 10,000 /day and we sure hope for it not to break.

The positive sentiment washing over the Capesize segment wasn't shared by the Panamax sector. Despite some fresh inquiries appearing in the Atlantic in the beginning of the week, the long ballasters lists managed to further weigh down on rates in the region.

At the same time, the performance of rates for both Supras and Handies witnessed another uninspiring week. The former witnessed less fixing activity ex-US Gulf, which was nevertheless counterbalanced by firm flow of Black Sea grain cargoes.

Chartering (Wet: Softer-  / Dry: Firm+ )
When it comes to the Dry Bulk market “drying up” leave it to Capes to turn things around. While the rest of the segments moved sideways last week, Cape rates shoot up as charterers got excited in both basins. The BDI closed yesterday (20/08/2013) at 1145 points, up by 30 points compared to Monday’s levels (19/08/2013) and an increase of 138 points compared to previous Tuesday’s levels (13/08/2013).

While Afras enjoyed a great week and Suezmaxes showed some resistance in an uninspiring market, rates for VLs dropped even further providing no hope whatsoever for an August positive reversal. The BDTI Monday (19/08/2013), was at 647 points, an increase of 16 points and the BCTI at 552, a decrease of 18 points compared to the previous Monday’s levels (12/08/2013).
