The Baltic Exchange's dry bulk sea freight index, an important barometer that reflects the shipping rates for bulk commodities, experienced a decline of approximately 1.2%, reaching 1,952 points on Tuesday. This fall follows a modest increase of 0.4% the previous day, with the downturn driven primarily by the larger vessel categories. Specifically, the capesize index, associated with massive ships that transport cargoes of around 150,000 tons, such as iron ore and coal, saw a decrease of 1.9%, landing at 3,660 points. Meanwhile, the panamax index, indicative of ships carrying between 60,000 and 70,000 tons of coal or grain, edged down by 0.3% to 1,406 points. In contrast, the supramax index, which represents smaller vessel sizes, increased by 6 points, achieving a near two-week peak of 945 points.
