  • The Baltic Dry Index rose 0.68% to 2,518 points to carve out a 10th straight day of gains. Higher Chinese ore prices and some cooling off of Hong Kong tension are seen as supportive of shipping rates.
  • The Capesize index was up +1.3% to help offset a 0.5% dip in the Panamax index.
  • Some analysts think the increasing number of vessels entering the shipyards in order to install exhaust gas cleaning systems (scrubbers) could support pricing for the balance of the year.
