S&P Market Trends during December: Secondhand Newbuilding Demolition

WEEKLY MARKET REPORT November 6th, 2009 / Week 45

Transcription:

Week 2 Tuesday 13th January 29 Weekly Market Report Sale & Purchase Newbuilding Secondhand Demolition Chartering World Economy News The risk of serious fiscal crises in developed countries has doubled if not tripled, according to the World Economic Forum s report on global risks ahead of the gathering of government and business leaders in Davos later this month. The report predicts that massive government spending to shore up financial systems will threaten countries such as the US, UK, France, Italy, Spain and Australia, which are already in a precarious fiscal position. Coupled with the risk of a hard economic landing in China defined as growth slowing to below 6% the effects would significantly damage the weakening global economy, the report says. One of the biggest [financial] risks is that short-term crisis fighting may induce business and governments to lose the long-term perspective on risk. Government action should be only for systemic failure. So, for the banking system: yes, for car manufacturers: no. The other big risks highlighted in the report, published on Tuesday, were gaps in global governance and issues relating to natural resources and climate change, such as problems with the supply of food, water and energy. The cutting off of gas supplies to countries such as Bulgaria after an argument between Ukraine and Russia is one big, recent example of this. (Financial Times) Energy & Commodities Oil prices continued to retreat, dropping below the $37 a barrel level, while base metals fell and gold eased as commodity markets staged a broad based retreat on Tuesday as more weak economic data pointed to a deepening global economic downturn. Nymex February West Texas Intermediate dropped $1.19 to $36.4 a barrel after touching a low of $36.1 while the March WTI contract lost $1 at $42.65. Goldman Sachs expects oil prices to sink towards $3 a barrel in the first quarter this year as oil stocks in the developed world climb to their highest levels for a decade over the next two months. However, Goldman also reiterated its forecast for oil to reach $65 by the end of this year as Opec production cuts and declines in non-opec supply help the market to rebalance. (Financial Times) Shipping News In a case which will certainly be hailed as one of the most prominent in recent history, shipping magnate Pericles Panagopoulos and his family are faced with the biggest challenge of their lives. Mr. Panagopoulos was kidnapped by three armed with AK-47 men yesterday morning, as he was leaving his home in the district of Kavouri, just outside Athens. By late afternoon, his kidnappers finally made contact and reportedly demanded a ransom of 4 million euros for his release. One major issue though could be the 74 year-old ship owner s fragile health, since he requires daily medication and his health needs close monitoring and attention. In June, the chief executive of aluminum company Alumil and chairman of the Federation of Industries in the northern city of Thessaloniki, George Milonas, was also kidnapped before being released two weeks later after a ransom was paid. Last month, a well-known Athens doctor was also kidnapped but has yet to be found. It is the first time a shipping tycoon has been a kidnap victim since 1996 when Yannis Peratikos, a shipowner, was gunned down by the 17 November terror group, which was eradicated in 22 after a 27-year career of political murder and violence. (Hellenic Shipping News) Chartering (Wet: Weaker / Dry: Stronger) For the past week, on the Dry market, the BDI was on Friday (9/1/29) 872, +99 points up from end of previous week s levels. On the Wet market, the BDTI on Friday (9/1/29) was 79, 14 points down and the BCTI at 563, -6 points down from end of previous week s levels. Sale & Purchase (Wet: Weaker / Dry: Weaker) The Sale and Purchase market was quite active for the past week on the dry side. On the wet side things look more silent, in particular, KL Line has acquired a VLCC resale from Imabari with delivery June 29 for 11$m and a DH small tanker, the Vilyuysk (17,125dwt-built 1977 was sold to an undisclosed buyer for 3$m. On the dry side, the panamax Cumbria (69,43dwt-built 1994) was reported sold to Chinese for 14.1 $m, Pontodromon (64,975dwt-built 1985) was sold to Greeks for 5.75$m and Irinikos (61,748dwt-built 1984) was sold for 3.5$m, due to SS in March 29. Furthermore, the handymax bulker Forest King (46,826dwtbuilt 1991) was sold for 6.5$m. Lastly, the handysize Pontomedon (37,596dwt-built 1985) was purchased by Europeans for 5.1$m, Vertigo (26,666dwt-built 1986) was bought by Chinese for 4$m and Santorin II (23,899dwt-built 1984 was acquired by Vietnamese for 3.6$m. Newbuilding (Wet: Weaker / Dry: Weaker) The Newbuilding market remains standstill. There is almost total lack of demand for new orders, and as a result yards are starting to realize that newbuilding prices drop will soon take effect. Demolition (Wet: Stronger / Dry: Stronger) The demolition market is growing, as prices are getting stronger and supply of new tonnage is increasing. Although a decline in scrap prices is still evident in the medium term, mainly due to the supply growth. This week: Bangladeshi breakers have acquired the MR tanker United Moonlight (55,272dwt-built 1982-11,147ldt) for 31$/ldt. week Indian ship breakers have bought the panamax bulkers Stone Topaz (65,29dwt-built 1976-12,6ldt) for 28$/ldt, with 2tns IFO ROB and the Athena (61,492dwt-built 1979-11,45ldt) for 232$/ldt, asis Gibraltar, with 1,5tns ROB. Furthermore, Indians have acquired the handysize bulker Corina (36,255dwt-built 1977) for 267$/ldt, the LPG Galileo (58,341cbm-built 1982-18,776ldt) for 282$/ldt, with 7tns ROB and the container Ankara (2,328teu-built 1976-15,6ldt) for 27$/ldt.

With only limited deals being concluded and equally limited ships under negotiations, it seems hard to set a benchmark for this market. This week there was the resale of a VLCC of 36,dwt from Imabari with delivery June 29 for 11$m, the buyers behind this deal is reported to be K Line. The other deal reported this week was the sale of a DH small tanker, the Vilyuysk (17,125dwt-built 1977 was sold to an undisclosed buyer for 3$m. Intermodal Research 2 13/1/29

All of the sales reported this week are small sizes up to panamaxes and mainly older vessels ranging from 34 to 14 years old. 2-Apr-8 2-Jul-8 2-Oct-8 2-Jan-9 On the panamax sector, the Cumbria (69,43dwt-built 1994) was reported sold to Chinese for 14.1$m.

The slightly bigger drop shown this week is in order to adjust to the present bear market. Still, however, the lack of newbuilding orders makes these prices an estimate of the newbuilding market. The Newbuilding market remains very quiet. Demand for new orders stays low, and as a result there is no guidance on prices. Although shipyards, especially those more exposed to risk, have realized the necessity of lowering prices if they wish to generate any business. Moreover, some shipowners would like to cancel, postpone or renegotiate their new building orders and few of them have tried to do so; however, it seems that it is not that easy to come to a favorable settlement with the shipyards. The builders have the upper hand in negotiations as not many of the owners are willing to walk away when they have remitted payments up to 5% of the contract price. There were no new orders placed this week. Intermodal Research 5 13/1/29
