THE BIGGER SIZE SEGMENTS LOST GROUND WHILE SUPRAS AND HANDIES HELD ON TO THEIR GAINS - INTERMODAL


Chartering (Wet: Stable+  / Dry: Stable- )
A mirror image of the week prior for the Dry Bulk market, as once more the bigger size segments lost ground while Supras and Handies held on to their gains, while sentiment improved overall towards the end of the week. The BDI closed today (05/11/2013) at 1,600 points, up by 48 points compared to Monday’s levels (04/11/2013) and an increase of 49 points compared to the previous Tuesday’s levels (29/10/2013). Rates for VLs continue to “ignore” the rest of the crude oil carriers market, improving further this past week as both the Eastbound and Westbound voyage witnessed increased activity yet again. The BDTI Monday (04/11/2013), was at 608 points, an increase of 9 points and the BCTI at 491, an increase of 7 points compared to the previous Monday’s levels (28/10/2013).

Sale & Purchase (Wet: Stable+  / Dry: Stable+  )
SnP activity has slowed down a bit this week but that hardly downplays on the fact that the total number of deals reported up until the end of October, is already higher than the figure for the entire 2012. On the tankers side, we had the en-bloc sale of the “BW LAKE” (298,564dwt-blt 04, S. Korea) and the “BW LION” (298,563dwt-blt 04, S. Korea), which were reported sold to Sinokor for a price of US$ 40.5.2m each. On the dry bulker side, we had the sale of the “VOLUMNIA” (76,015dwt-blt 02 Japan) which was picked up by Greek buyers for a price of $ 15.5m.

New building (Wet: Stable+  / Dry: Stable+  )
If something hasn't let anyone down this year in the industry is how constant the high volume of new building orders has been. The dry sector holds once again the lion’s share in terms of recently inked new orders. The latest rally in freight rate has definitely fired up owners’ interest, and even though the market has pulled back a bit recently, the sentiment seems unaffected amongst big players who can finance their way into a new building order. The recent increase in prices has also played its role in all this. As price levels for dry units have been increasing, the majority of the market has started being supportive of the belief that going forward, the only way for the new building market to move is up and therefore the idea of the asset play is very much back. A self–fulfilling prophecy? Maybe, but at the same time yards have distanced themselves from the low levels reached in 2012 and they don't appear eager to return there. In terms of new orders, German owner Oldendorff, was reported signing contracts  for four firm and four optional VLOCs (2080,000dwt) at Taizhou Catic in China, for a price of $ 55.0m each and with delivery between 2015 and 2016.

Demolition (Wet: Stable- / Dry: Stable- )
The demolition market continues to witness low volumes of activity. The holidays in the Indian sub-Continent have most certainly taken their toll on  the number of deals being concluded, although bids have somehow managed to preserve their levels in the region during the past week. The stability of the local currency is one of the reasons the Indian market had maintained a strong presence just before the Diwali started. The holiday recess in the country will, as expected, weigh down on activity and we also believe that prices might suffer as well. The main reason for the latter is that both Pakistan and Bangladesh currently show no intention to entice owners with higher offers and therefore, without any meaningful competition Indian breakers have no reason to pay the extra premium. At the same time, Chinese breakers have lowered their prices even further, allowing for vessels in the nearby region to be grabbed by the competition. Average prices this week for wet tonnage were at around 345-425$/ldt and dry units received about 335-410$/ldt.
