Transcription:

Week 22 Tuesday 2nd June 29 Weekly Market Report Sale & Purchase Newbuilding Secondhand Demolition Chartering World Economy News The euro weakened from an 8 month high against the yen, commodities dropped and emerging market shares fell for the first time in a week before signals from central bankers on the direction of the global economy. The euro slid.3% to 136.33 yen as of 11:2 a.m. in London. The MSCI World Index of stocks was little changed, paring an earlier decline of.3% after its biggest advance in 4 weeks yesterday. The MSCI Emerging Markets Index dropped.8%, the steepest retreat in five days. Oil and copper fell for the first time in seven days. Treasuries rose after 1-year yields rose the most in 8 months yesterday. We re not getting carried away with the recovery story, said Sean Maloney, a fixed-income strategist at Nomura International Plc in London. The real data are still lagging and we are seeing an economy that s still bad. (Bloomberg) Energy & Commodities Rio Tinto s South Korean and Chinese Taipei iron ore customers have accepted the same 29 prices agreed last week with Japan s Nippon Steel, but Chinese mills want even greater reductions. Rio announced today that Hamersley Iron has settled its contracts with POSCO, CSC and Dragon at $.97 per dry tone unit for Pilbara Blend Fines and Yandicoogina and $1.12 per dmtu for Pilbara Blend Lump. Division chief Sam Hunt said: Each year the pricing negotiations are tough and this year is no exception, although the situation is becoming clearer as more customers settle to the same terms. We continue to negotiate with our remaining customers, the bulk of whom are in China, he added. We believe the settlements achieved to date demonstrate that customers appreciate the certainty of price and volume that the benchmark system ensures. But the company revealed that about half of the ore produced this calendar year has been sold on the spot market. Earlier, the China Iron & Steel Association explicitly rejected the new prices, which represent cuts of 33-44%. Such a price cut does not truly reflect changes in the international iron ore market this year, it said. It will lead to losses in the entire Chinese steel industry. Therefore, Chinese steel enterprises cannot accept this price and will not follow suit. (Fairplay) Shipping News Another week of cheers for dry bulk ship owners, as the sector s leading market index, the BDI managed to keep its positive momentum and gain an additional 25%, reaching almost 3,5 points, the highest point since the previous September, just before the financial crisis stepped in to change everything. The BDI has edged upwards for almost 2 consecutive sessions. Last week s stars of the rise were the capesize vessels, which have practically taken off. The Baltic Exchange reports that the capesize market is "red-hot for now with no end in sight as more cargoes pile into the market and tonnage is 'incredibly tight' in the Atlantic." A 17,-tonne 1997-built vessel open mid June on the Continent fixed for a trip via Brazil to South Korea at $9, daily - and a $, daily does not seem far off, it says. These are much needed news for dry bulk ship owners, which have been plagued by very low rates for a series of months. The capesize rates alone had fallen as much as less than $1, in early December, when global trade had been brought to a virtual halt. During the previous week, the BCI gained more than 4% week on week, to reach 6,125 points, while the Panamax Index added over 26%. The daily fixture/index for 2 nd June 29 is BDI at 4,16 points (+425 points up from 1 st June 29), BCI 7,724 (+1,175), BPI 3,33 (+237), BSI 1,843 (+8) and BHSI 876 (+6). (Hellenic Shipping News) Chartering (Wet: Stable / Dry: Stronger) For the past week, on the Dry market, the BDI was on Friday (29/5/29) 3,681, +895 points up from end of previous week s levels. On the Wet market, the BDTI on Friday (29/5/29) was 482, +2 points up and the BCTI at 481, -4 points down from end of previous week s levels. Sale & Purchase (Wet: Stable- / Dry: Stronger) The tanker S&P market has some interesting deals to show for the past week: the SH VLCC Hydra Star (35,846dwt-built 1994) was sold e/b with Carina Star (35,668dwt-built 1994) to Far Easterns for 19.5 $ each, the DH VLCC Camden (298,36dwt-built 1995) was bought by Venezuelans for 52$m and GNMTC has acquired e/b 2 very modern DH MR tankers, the Ocean Command (46,dwt-built 29) and the Ocean Compass (46,dwt-built 29) for 37.5$m net each. The dry S&P market continues to be very active, with several deals concluded for another week: the capesize Mineral Azalea (171,199dwt-built 1999) was bought by TMT for the very firm price of 46.35$m, HMM acquired a post panamax newbuilding resale of 91,8dwt with delivery 11/29 from Sungdong for 4.5$m, the kamsarmax Trafalgar (76,397dwt-built 21) was bought by Chinese for 28$m, the panamax Lansing (73,4dwt-built 1996) fetched 21.5$m, the handymax Moorgate (45,875dwt-built 199) was acquired by Indonesians for 11.3$m and the handysize Ivs Kenso (32,642dwt-built 25) was acquired by Greeks for 22.2$m. Newbuilding (Wet: Weaker / Dry: Weaker) The Newbuilding market has no activity to show for another week. Demolition (Wet: Stable / Dry: Stable) The demolition markets continue to be very active, with several deals concluded for another week. Bangladeshi breakers have acquired the handysize bulker Boe West (34,618dwt-7,995ldt-built 1982) for 235 $/ldt, and the small tanker Kemeri (17,61dwt-5,522ldt-built 1985) for 285$/ldt.

Demolition Market The demolition market seems to be sending mixed signals to industry players. The strengthening of the dry freight rates has led to withdrawal of most bulk carriers from the scrapping list. Moreover, the unexpected rise in prices from India and Pakistan few weeks ago, has created false expectations. Nevertheless, there still exists plenty of demo tonnage in the market and several deals are concluded. In Bangladesh, demo prices remain well down by their usually lofty standards, offering now around 2$/ldt for wet and 23$/ldt for dry tonnage. Bangladeshi breakers have been largely uncompetitive for several weeks now, and for the past week only two deals were reported: the handysize bulker Boe West (34,618dwt-7,995ldt-built 1982) fetched 235$/ldt, and the small tanker Kemeri (17,61dwt-5,522ldt-built 1985) fetched 285$/ldt.
