COALspot.com:
The freight market appeared to be heading for correction with the indices coming off during later part of the week. The BDI closed 44 points where as the cape and panamax index was down by 129 points and 111 points respectively. The Supramax and handy size was marginally up by 33 point and 11 points respectively. The short period rates for Q4 has been quite strong and appears that the market will be fairly firm. However closing of the week there was news of a double dip recession in USA which is likely to create some uncertainty in the financial markets and if that happens could affect the shipping market also.
