The BDI was up by 7.72 pct last week whereas Cape and Panamax was almost up by 12 pct. The Supramax and Handy size moved up only marginally by 0.86 pct and 3.27 pct respectively. Overall the futures saw a strong recovery. However towards end of the week the futures seemed soft. The iron ore prices and steel prices seems to be picking and showing signs of recovery. Seems the market would be fairly stable/firm balance period for 2010.
