COALspot.com ( Singapore): Vistaar Shipping, an experienced ship operator in Singapore said, The market continued to be soft this with doubts about global economy recovery and talks about another stimulus package by the US.

The stock markets globaly remained soft this week. The BDI was down by 535 points which has been quite sharp and closed at 2,985 points.

The congestion at Australian ports continues to be at around 121 vessels waiting off EC Australia. The congestion in Paradip and Haldia is continuing to be high with about 47 ships waiting at Paradip. 

China's appetite for iron ore and coal imports is expected to be weak in Q3 and if this happens will definitely have a affect on the shipping market. The import of steam coal from Indonesia and South Africa to India will continue to increase especially with quite a few thermal power plants in the pipeline and will be operational in 3 / 5 years.
