Market assessment
Rising bunker prices continued to push freight levels higher across all routes. In the handysize segment ex- Ukraine, owners indicated freight rates for East Med destinations in the high USD 20’s pmt range.
However, this upward move is being driven primarily by fuel costs rather than underlying demand. The bunker rally, fueled by ongoing tensions in the Middle East, has put the market in a fragile state. The sharp increase in rates seen through March appears more artificial than fundamental, and does not yet signal a healthy or sustainable recovery.
Coaster segment freight levels stopped their further increase during the past week towards main directions however still it is too early to say that market entered its consolidation stage and stabilized. Owners need to accept that charterers were not able to pay even higher freights to conclude fixtures and as a result there were very wide gaps between the fixing ideas that did not satisfy any of the sides.
