Most of the owners are hoping that the market would pick up after the Lunar New Year holidays and will have to wait to see how the market behaves.

In recent months, the dry bulk shipping industry is affected by numerous factors such as world economies’ slow growth and weak commodity demand. China’s economic growth rate impact dry bulk shipper’s movement as China is an important commodity market, which is the backbone of growth of shipping industry recent years. According to industry analysts, the world’s fleet of dry-bulk ships are far exceeding demand and estimated around 20% above demand over the past few years.

In the meantime, Panamax charter rates were soft and ships were reported fixed delivery Indonesia around $ 4,000 per day for a trip to India below its break-even point. Freight rates are still expected to be weak on Supramax and Panamax in coming days.

The Cape average charter rates were reported at around $ 5,117 per day, far below its break-even point, Panamax is at around $ 3,984 per day , Supramax at $ 5,077 per day and Handy size/$ 4,021 per day.
