MARKET INSIGHT - INTERMODAL
 Heading towards the end of a difficult year and with the entire planet under the shadow of the covid-19 virus, it is interesting to proceed with a review of how much the shipping industry has been affected. As it was expected, the Covid-19 has a huge impact not only on the freight market of different sectors but also on the way that the shipping participants operate. It is essential for shipping participants to travel around the world; the prohibition of traveling added an additional burden to the shipping community. We witnessed cases where crews remained on ships beyond their contracts as they could only change in certain ports. We have seen SnP transactions fail due to the fact that the delivery of units was very difficult. Another reason that led to transaction failures was the negative momentum in the freight market; that led owners to withdraw from SnP transactions that they were about to complete in the view of a very negative freight market outlook.
Let us not forget that, as far as the dry sector is concerned, we saw the market being below 600 units from late January to June, with a few exceptions where the BDI posted at the region of 700 points. There was a time when we really did not witness any secondhand transaction while the freight market in the dry bulk sector was at significantly low levels. But, as soon as June kicked off, things changed a lot. The market started to recover with the BDI passing even the 2000 points. We suddenly saw several buyers leaving the sidelines and bid on ships. Many vessels were sold on a waiving inspection basis while their prices increased as the competition increased.
An example of such a price increase was the sale of a Japanese Supramax, 2008 built which was sold for USD 7.8 million back in March, while today, the owners for similar units are asking over USD 9.5 million. Prices for the other sizes followed the same trend with the exception of Handysize vessels; while we are noticing some increases in prices for such units, these improvements have not been as rapid as the market recovery.
As we are coming close to the end of 2020 and we are waiting for the vaccine against coronavirus that will boost the psychology worldwide and the global economy, it will be very interesting to see how the charter market will react. At the moment, there is some ground for optimism, and we hope that the coming year will provide a boost to World Trade and consequently positive fundamentals will arise for the shipping industry.
