DRY BULK MARKET HAS REVERSED ITS NEGATIVE COURSE - INTERMODAL
Chartering (Wet: Firm+ / Dry: Stable+ )
The Dry Bulk market has reversed its negative course this past week with rates for Capes making up for some of their recent losses. The BDI closed today (12/11/2013) at 1,543 points, down by 21 points compared to Monday’s levels (11/11/2013) and a decrease of 57 points compared to previous Tuesday’s levels (05/11/2013). The crude oil carriers market continues to firm, with rates for VLs witnessing another week of impressive gains on the back of strong Far East demand. The BDTI Monday (11/11/2013), was at 635 points, an increase of 27 points and the BCTI at 492, an increase of 1 point compared to the previous Monday’s levels (04/11/2013).
Sale & Purchase (Wet: Stable+ / Dry: Stable+ )
SnP activity considerably picked up this week with VL deals holding the lion’s share amongst dry and wet segments. On the tankers side, we had the sale of the “BLUE OPAL” (317,000dwt-blt 12, S. Korea), which was picked up by Navios for a price of US$ 83.0m. On the dry bulker side, we had the sale of the “PERLY” (77,830dwt-blt 02 Japan) which was picked up for a price in excess of $ 14.0m.
New building (Wet: Stable+ / Dry: Stable+ )
As the new building order spree continues, so does the firming of prices. This past week we raised our average new building quotes for a couple of segments in the dry bulker and tanker sides. The recent performance of the VL market, new building prices of which had stalled for quite some time due to poor freight rate performance, seems bound to move upwards as strengthening demand from the East has been supporting rates for more than two months straight. Improving freights has also been witnessed by Supras, the average price of which should now stand well above the $ 26.0m level for a new building unit. The increased interest of buyers in those but other segments of both dry bulkers and tankers seems that is now pushing owners who appear to be in a hurry to secure a slot to even smaller yards, which appear willing to satisfy that extra demand. This is definitely good for builders but is it for the market itself? The question is of course rhetorical as we will need further months of good performance in hires to fully support the current rate of ordering. In terms of new orders, Norwegian owner Jo Tankers was reported signing contracts for eight firm chemical parcel tankers (33,000dwt) at New Times in China, for a price of $ 40.0m each and with delivery between 2016 and 2017.
Demolition (Wet: Stable- / Dry: Stable-)
The volume of activity in the demolition market has slightly picked up, although some of the deals reported are traced back in prior weeks. Despite the fact that interest is very much present from both the buying and the selling side, it seems that the uncertainty that has prevailed during the past months has somewhat taken its toll on both owners and breakers sentiment as both sides seems to feel a bit indecisive. From one side, breakers have been “burnt” a few times in the recent past from local steel prices and currency fluctuations, ending up with tonnage bought at sky high prices compared to where the market ended up settling. On the other hand, owners have themselves witnessed demo buyers trying to walk out of previously agreed levels once the market had turned south. This past week prices have moved sideways in the Indian sub-Continent, while remaining stable in China. Average prices this week for wet tonnage were at around 345-425$/ldt and dry units received about 335-410$/ldt.
