Falling BDI@1,554 “thanks” to the Capes’ volatility…

John Faraclas

The BDI (Baltic Dry Index) fell earlier on today 20 points; it was an expected result following yestedays perplexed figures… the Geopolitical and mainly economic chaos and environmental “concerns” all over Planet Ocean will affect everything. John Faraclas’ brief daily recap:

The Capes’ BCI lost 51 points and now stands at 2,148 – still a good level, but… The most volatile of all indices sends alarms around…CAUTION

A bit of good news from the Panamaxes; a good 27 points plus recovery...

“In and Out of bounds” / “Within and Outside limits”

“In and Out of bounds” / “Within and Outside limits”

Much has been written about the social and cultural atmosphere of May ’68, a commingling of ideas and claims, which seemed to unite the young in a common vision. It initiated a fundamental questioning of “thousands of years of dust, hate and misery”, as Manos Hadjidakis wrote.
