The BDI falls, Dirties unexpected rise; despicable mess and hype by all on Ukraine whilst …Covid still around..

John Faraclas

The BDI (Baltic Dry Index) lost 57 points as well as the 2,200 threshold and now stands at 2,187.Unexpected rise in Dirties with the BDTI up 179 points at 904. Hype and theatre of the absurd in Ukraine with Russian Forces smashing local defences in all fronts; a big surprise or a copy of the Afghan Army’s collapse? Something more than dubious happened.

The BDI (Baltic Dry Index)  gained 94 points since yesterday surpassing the 2,200 points threshold and now reads 2,244. Wonder what’s happening with the ups and downs in the Wets. War is inevitable in Ukraine. Add Covid’s uncertainty and see what you get. John Faraclas’ brief recap:

The BDI (Baltic Dry Index) with 81 points plus since yesterday surpassing the 1,500 points threshold is possibly a good sign, but don’t count your eggs before they are hatched.
