DRY BULK MARKET CONTINUED TO ADVANCE - INTERMODAL
Chartering (Wet: Stable- / Dry: Firm+ )
The Dry Bulk market continued to advance at a very fast pace, with the BDI closing off the week north of 1,700 points. It will take a longer period to understand how strong the legs to this latest rally are but the waves of optimism that have washed the market are undoubtedly high and more than welcome.
The BDI closed today (17/09/2013) at 1,740 points, up by 89 points compared to Monday’s levels (16/09/2013) and an increase of 199 points compared to the previous Tuesday’s levels (10/09/2013). Amidst US cooling off a bit on Syria talks and the UN pointing the headlight to Libya, the crude oil carrier market has moved sideways this week with VLs finding their footing on Westbound demand.
The BDTI Monday (16/09/2013), was at 582 points, a decrease of 5 points and the BCTI at 558, an decrease of 19 points compared to the previous Monday’s levels (09/09/2013).
Sale & Purchase (Wet: Stable+ / Dry: Stable+ )
A big part of those deals that were being negotiated towards the end of August came through this past week, boosting significantly the volume of SnP activity. As we head towards the last quarter of the year we expect even more action to take place especially on the Dry side where freight rates have started improving significantly.
On the tankers side, we had the sale of the “STAVANGER BELL” (105,309dwt-blt 10 , Japan), which was picked up by Greek buyers, for a price of US$ 31.0m. On the dry bulker side, we had the sale of the “CHRISMIR” (159,829dwt-blt 97 S. Korea), which was picked up by Greek buyers for a price of $ 13.5m.
Newbuilding (Wet: Stable+ / Dry: Stable+ )
The newbuilding market witnessed increased activity this past week with a high number of reported deals in both the wet and the dry sector coming to light. While further MR orders have concluded, the Ultramax segment wasn't shy of orders this week either and we cannot but stop thinking that the last quarter of the year will be even more active as far as new orders are concerned.
The recent rally in freight rate in the Dry Bulk market will surely inspire more owners to go after new tonnage as it happened back in 2010. The key difference this time is that newbuilding prices are nowhere close to what they were back then, so even if market recovery delays a bit longer, the financing of a new vessel should not prove to be lethally expensive as it did last time round.
In terms of concluded deals, Hong Kong based Parakou Shipping, was reported returning to China to exercise two options (64,000dwt) at CSSC Chengxi, at a price of US$ 25.5m each and with delivery set for 2015.
Demolition (Wet: Firm+ / Dry: Firm+ )
With the Indian Rupee appreciating further this week against the US Dollar there was finally some substantial optimism in the demolition market, which was evident both in the volume of deals that took place as well as the prices these were concluded at. With the exception of Bangladesh, where breaking activity was pretty much non-existent, the rest of the Indian sub-Continent nations got back into action.
As far as volume is concerned, breaking yards in China had the lion’s share for yet another week, with a series of demo deals agreed at levels quite impressive for the local market. With the volatility witnessed in the rest of the market and the continuous price strengthening in China, the country should hold its position as the “safest” choice for owners thinking to scrap their vessels and they wish to avoid cash buyers for the moment.
Average prices this week for wet tonnage were at around 370-395$/ldt and dry units received about 360-370$/ldt.
