New low on Baltic Dry Index could bring Indian Ocean trade to a halt

A fresh low of 402 levels on the Baltic Dry Index (BDI) today (Jan12) may bring trade across the Indian Ocean-Asia Pacific market virtually to a standstill on the back of postponement of trade contracts and strong aversion to get into long-term deals

“The trade climate is extremely gloomy and full of insecurity as charterers are not sure if the price at which they have negotiated is the right low price�. “There have been very few inquiries and even out of those most were not firm. Out of five inquiries, three have failed,� said a ship-owner on condition of anonymity.

Realist - Everybody in America is soft, and hates conflict. The cure for this, both in politics and social life, is the same -- hardihood. Give them raw truth.
