DRY BULK MARKET HAS LOST FURTHER GROUND THIS PAST WEEK - INTERMODAL
COALspot.com: The Dry Bulk market has lost further ground this past week as activity ex-Far East disappeared into the Chinese holidays and owners ideas lowered further in the absence of meaningful fixing enquiry across all size segments.
Chartering (Wet: Softer- / Dry: Softer- )
The BDI closed today (04/02/2014) at 1,084 points, down by 9 points compared to yesterday’s levels (03/02/2014) and a decrease of 93 points compared to previous Tuesday’s closing (28/01/2014). It was red across the board for the crude carriers as well, with Suezmax rates correcting further downwards and sluggish VL activity eating into all the upside achieved the week prior. The BDTI Monday (03/02/2014), was at 958 points, a decrease of 174 points and the BCTI at 606, remaining unchanged compared to the previous Monday (27/01/2014).
Sale & Purchase (Wet: Stable+ / Dry: Stable+ )
SnP activity continues to witness firm levels and so do second hand prices, which continue to ignore the performance of freight rates across both the wet and the dry sectors. On the tanker side, we had the en-bloc sale of the “SCF BYRRANGA” (159,156dwt-blt 05, S. Korea) and the “SCF ALDAN” (159,062dwt-blt 05, S. Korea), which were reported sold to Greek buyers for a price of US$ 35.0m each. On the dry bulker side, we had the sale of the “CHENGYANG PIONEER” (76,202dwt-blt 13, China), which was picked up by Chinese owner SITC, for a price of US$ 27.0m.
Newbuilding (Wet: Firm+ / Dry: Firm+ )
It’s been a long time since we last witnessed activity in the newbuilding market slowing down. It seems that the Lunar New Year has taken its toll on the newbuilding front as well, as Chinese yards have stepped back from aggressively marketing their slots and are expected to revisit their strategy as the new year will kick off. Having said that, we can’t help but wonder whether this current pull back might be marking the beginning of a prolonged period of slower activity. The fact is that newbuilding prices have firmed considerably and even if the current freight market continues to remain under pressure, thus not making a strong case for newbuilding prices at these levels, it will be very difficult for any of the more well known yards to start decreasing their prices as this would act as the catalyst for an overall market correction, much undesired by the newbuilding industry altogether. In terms of new orders, S. Korean owner Sinokor has exercised options for four Capesize vessels (180,000dwt) at Daehan in S. Korea, for a reported price of $ 53.0m each.
Demolition (Wet: Stable+ / Dry: Stable+ )
Things in the demolition market remained quiet last week, with a small number of deals being reported all round. Despite the sluggish activity, prices seem to have sustained their levels significantly on the back of steel prices stabilizing and local currencies appearing stronger against the USD. Even though Monday kicked off with offers coming in lower, the market has in fact rebounded just before the weekend and we are currently hearing that current bids are on the rise again in the India sub-Continent. This can be attributed to the fact that there have been talks about tax cuts in India, which are very possible to materialize, while at the same time the supply of demo candidates has been somewhat short of expectations and capacity. In Pakistan we have yet to see any meaningful reaction in terms of matching the competition’s bids, while things in China were destined to be quiet for yet another week, especially with holidays in the country being underway. Average prices this week for wet tonnage were at around 350-450$/ldt and dry units received about 340-445$/ldt.
