FREIGHT MARKET SITUATION MAY CONTINUE FOR NEXT COUPLE OF WEEKS - VISTAAR


COALspot.com:
The market continued to soften further with the cape and panamax index down by about 20 pct and closed at 2,102 and 1,944 points respectively. The BDI was also down by 16.58 pct and closed at 1,902 points.

The Supramax and Handy size index was down by 8.92 pct and 10.29 pct respectively. The main reason seems to be due to pressure on steel prices and slowing down of imports by China.
