- Wednesday, February 8, 2012, 11:22 AM The Baltic Dry Index pulls out of its death spiral to show a 1.9% gain. The move has all the earmarks of a dead cat bounce - instead of a confirmed market bottom - with shippers still willing to accept unprofitable charters due to an industry-wide oversupply of ships and weak demand. 1 Comment [Global & FX, On the Move]
- Tuesday, February 7, 2012, 3:31 PM The plunge in the Baltic Dry index to multi-decade lows has some warning about a economic slowdown and a hit to equities, but a check of the record shows to index has little correlation to stocks. The dive in shipping rates is what it is - a response to too many ships being built over the past years. - but, not much more. 4 Comments [Global & FX]
- Monday, February 6, 2012, 11:31 AM The collapse in shipping rates moves to the absurd stage, with Glencore getting paid $2K/day to hire a vessel. How could this happen? Ships deteriorate rather quickly if not kept seaworthy and moving, making transactions such as this necessary. (previous) Comment! [Global & FX]
- Wednesday, February 1, 2012, 12:58 PM The Baltic Dry Index dives again, off 2.6% to 662, the lowest reading in more than 25 years. Rates for Capesizes - the largest carriers of iron ore and coal - have plunged 84% in just 7 weeks, and owners are idling vessels instead of accepting the low price. In the meantime ships continue to be built even as Asian demand for raw materials slows. 2 Comments [Global & FX, U.S. Economy, Commodities]

Baltic Trading Limited (BALT) doesn't look great as a stock with a PE of 69. But an 11% dividend and 700% payout ratio. Impressive. - View all 0 replies
