26-January-2026
Capesize Bulk Carrier Market – Baltic Capesize Index (BCI)
The capesize bulk carrier market started the week on a strong footing, with confidence improving and capesize bulk carrier freight rates lifting across both the Atlantic and Pacific, before a late-week reversal trimmed gains. In the Pacific, steady miner activity, solid cargo flow, and a shrinking capesize bulk carrier open list helped drive the market higher, pushing the Baltic Capesize Index (BCI) C5 up to $8.90. The Atlantic capesize bulk carrier market echoed that strength. Better enquiry from East Coast South America (ECSA) and West Africa (WAFR) into China lifted the Baltic Capesize Index (BCI) C3 route to $22.20, reinforced by firm shipowner price resistance. The North Atlantic capesize bulk carrier market also contributed, as transatlantic and fronthaul fixtures improved against a backdrop of limited capesize bulk carrier availability. Momentum turned late in the week, led by a sharp pullback in the Pacific capesize bulk carrier market. With miner presence fading, Baltic Capesize Index (BCI) C5 slipped back to $7.90. Even so, the Atlantic capesize bulk carrier market—particularly ECSA/WAFR to China—proved comparatively steady, indicating the dip was more about sentiment cooling than a meaningful weakening in underlying fundamentals.
Panamax Bulk Carrier Market – Baltic Panamax Index (BPI)
Panamax bulk carrier markets opened with a clearer bid in both basins, supported by improved demand and more ambitious panamax bulk carrier rate ideas. In the Atlantic, transatlantic business gathered momentum early on, with grain employment continuing to command a premium versus mineral cargoes, while fronthaul enquiry remained supportive. By midweek, prompt panamax bulk carrier tonnage tightened as positions were fixed and remaining shipowners showed little urgency, keeping upward pressure on numbers. Into Thursday, the panamax bulk carrier market shifted into a more balanced rhythm as charterers reduced bids—most noticeably on fronthaul—yet overall sentiment stayed constructive and transatlantic business held its ground. In the Pacific, panamax bulk carrier rates advanced despite muted South Pacific mineral demand, helped by Atlantic strength, firmer overall pricing, and fewer ballasting decisions toward East Coast South America (ECSA). Period activity remained busy, with multiple medium-term fixtures reported around $17,750. The Baltic Panamax Index (BPI) P5TC average climbed from $13,688 to $14,504 over the week.
Ultramax / Supramax Bulk Carrier Market – Baltic Supramax Index (BSI)
The ultramax and supramax bulk carrier market was widely viewed as position-driven, with outcomes differing by region. In the Atlantic, the US Gulf (USG) improved early in the week, although some participants felt the market met resistance as it progressed. In East Coast South America (ECSA), demand was present, but a sufficient number of open bulk carriers kept freight rates largely capped. Indicative levels saw ultramax bulk carriers fixing near $15,000 plus $500,000 BB (ballast bonus) for fronthaul business, while transatlantic runs were heard around $22,000. In Asia, conditions were mixed: a 63K DWT ultramax bulk carrier open North China via North Pacific (NOPAC) back to North China fixed around $13,000. A 57K DWT supramax bulk carrier open Singapore via Indonesia to North China was reported fixed for one year at roughly $16,500. Elsewhere, a 64K DWT ultramax bulk carrier open West Africa (WAFR) fixed for 7/10 months trading with worldwide redelivery at about $17,000.
Handysize Bulk Carrier Market – Baltic Handysize Index (BHSI)
Handysize bulk carrier markets strengthened gradually through the week and closed firmer, led by improving conditions in the Atlantic, while the Pacific continued to trail. In East Coast South America (ECSA), steady cargo volumes and a tightening handysize bulk carrier tonnage list lifted rates, highlighted by a 36K DWT handysize bulk carrier open Argentina to West Africa (WAFR) fixed at roughly $22,500. The US Gulf (USG) handysize bulk carrier market stayed supported as demand improved and tonnage cleared, with a 36K DWT handysize bulk carrier reported fixed open SW Passage via US Gulf (USG) to El Salvador around $17,500. In contrast, the Continent and Mediterranean handysize bulk carrier market was largely unchanged, with limited fresh enquiry leaving rate levels steady; a 38K DWT handysize bulk carrier open Egypt Med to West Africa (WAFR) was fixed around $12,000. In Asia, handysize bulk carrier fixing remained thin, though a 39K DWT handysize bulk carrier open Australia to North China was reported done at approximately $15,500.

19-January-2026
Capesize Bulk Carrier Market – Baltic Capesize Index (BCI)
The capesize bulk carrier market went through another rough week, with confidence fading across most trades as freight levels continued to grind lower. In the Pacific capesize bulk carrier market, regular miner requirements and a fair amount of operator interest could not absorb the mounting pressure created by plentiful capesize bulk carrier tonnage. The Baltic Capesize Index (BCI) C5 route weakened steadily, with capesize bulk carrier fixtures drifting from around $7.90 down to roughly $7.10. Even so, as the week drew to a close, there were the first hints of a tentative uptick in sentiment. Across the Atlantic capesize bulk carrier market, East Coast South America (ECSA) and West Africa (WAFR) to China trades took a pronounced hit around midweek. Baltic Capesize Index (BCI) C3 levels slid from about $20.30 to near $19.00, as easing cargo pull and sharper competition on offers undercut the mood. By Thursday, the capesize bulk carrier market appeared to find some footing, with bids returning toward $19.00 and fixtures heard around $19.20, pointing to a potential near-term base. By the end of the week, the tone had improved again, and the Baltic Capesize Index (BCI) C3 inched up to 19,559. The North Atlantic capesize bulk carrier market recorded the steepest setbacks, with both fronthaul and transatlantic capesize bulk carrier earnings moving lower. Activity remained patchy and failed to shift the broader narrative, although late-week chatter of a slightly firmer transatlantic capesize bulk carrier fixture offered some support and helped underpin confidence into the finish.
Panamax Bulk Carrier Market – Baltic Panamax Index (BPI)
The panamax bulk carrier market started the week on a guarded note. Cheaper mineral transatlantic business stood in contrast to firmer grain flows, while fronthaul demand provided a consistent underpinning. Heavy panamax bulk carrier tonnage availability in the Continent continued to cap gains, even with decent cargo enquiry in the background. Through midweek, panamax bulk carrier spot rates stayed under pressure. Grain transatlantic business retained a small premium, Indonesian cargo demand remained active, and modern panamax bulk carriers increasingly angled toward longer Pacific employment or positioning into East Coast South America (ECSA). Period business added a more constructive element, with several mid- to longer-term deals reported at improved levels. By Thursday, panamax bulk carrier sentiment strengthened in both basins. Atlantic discounts narrowed, fronthaul activity was lively, and Pacific panamax bulk carrier ideas firmed. The improvement was captured in the Baltic Panamax Index (BPI) P5TC, which rebounded to finish the week at $13,120.
Ultramax / Supramax Bulk Carrier Market – Baltic Supramax Index (BSI)
It was largely a positional week in the ultramax and supramax bulk carrier market, with conditions varying by region. The Atlantic ultramax and supramax bulk carrier market was notably more supportive, especially out of the US Gulf (USG), where fresh enquiry increased and prompt availability tightened. Ultramax bulk carrier transatlantic runs were being discussed around $21,000. A 64K DWT ultramax bulk carrier open East Coast South America (ECSA) to China reportedly fixed near $14,000 plus $450,000s BB (ballast bonus). The Continent–Mediterranean ultramax and supramax bulk carrier market remained largely steady and positional, though some noted slightly healthier enquiry from the Continent side. In Asia, conditions stayed subdued from the shipowner’s standpoint, although late in the week there was a growing sense that the downside may have been largely priced in. A 57K DWT supramax bulk carrier open South China to Bangladesh was fixed around $13,500. The Indian Ocean ultramax and supramax bulk carrier market showed little new spark. A 57K DWT supramax bulk carrier open Oman via UAE to West Coast India (WCI) was reported fixed around $15,500.
Handysize Bulk Carrier Market – Baltic Handysize Index (BHSI)
The handysize bulk carrier market remained stuck in a sluggish pattern, with weak fundamentals persisting as supply continued to exceed demand across the Atlantic and Pacific basins. In the Continent and Mediterranean handysize bulk carrier market, the week was mostly positional with limited fresh cargoes, and rates hovering at or marginally below recent levels. A 33K DWT handysize bulk carrier open Bulgaria to Germany fixed near $9,000. East Coast South America (ECSA) showed early signs of steadiness, with some shipowners beginning to test slightly higher targets, though overall activity levels remained muted. A 35K DWT handysize bulk carrier open West Africa (WAFR) via Argentina to Algeria fixed around $17,000. In the US Gulf (USG), the tone stayed soft due to a shortage of new enquiry and an extended handysize bulk carrier tonnage list. A 39K DWT handysize bulk carrier open US Gulf (USG) to Mexico East Coast fixed around $15,500. The Asian handysize bulk carrier market was also quiet, with limited cargo flow dampening sentiment. A longer handysize bulk carrier tonnage list—especially on Southeast Asia–North Asia trades—added light downward pressure, though levels largely stayed close to last done. A 39K DWT handysize bulk carrier open North China to West Coast India (WCI) fixed near $10,000. Handysize bulk carrier period activity was intermittent, but a handful of short-period fixtures were still reported during the week.

12-January-2026
Capesize Bulk Carrier Market – Baltic Capesize Index (BCI)
Capesize bulk carrier trading turned choppy but ultimately leaned weaker over the week, with confidence fading even though Atlantic capesize bulk carrier activity briefly brightened midweek. After the holiday lull, participation improved, yet the Pacific capesize bulk carrier basin stayed firmly on the back foot as Baltic Capesize Index (BCI) C5 levels slid; miner interest was not enough to absorb the expanding pool of available tonnage. By the end of the week, capesize bulk carrier fixtures had eased from about $8.30 to roughly $7.80–$8.00, underlining the softer bias. In the Atlantic capesize bulk carrier market, ECSA (East Coast South America) and WAFR (West Africa) to China business remained heavily position- and date-driven: end-January 2026 liftings achieved small premiums, while February 2026 capesize bulk carrier stems were concluded at cheaper numbers. Baltic Capesize Index (BCI) C3 momentum also weakened as bids drifted down into the $20.50–$20.80 area, and softer transatlantic and Seven Islands fixtures further reduced earnings. The Baltic Capesize Index (BCI) 5TC fell hard from $27,652 to $23,947, reflecting longer tonnage lists and broadly deteriorating sentiment.
Panamax Bulk Carrier Market – Baltic Panamax Index (BPI)
The panamax bulk carrier market closed the week with a firmer tone after a slow post-holiday opening. Initial softness—most visible on fronthaul—gradually gave way to a more constructive feel as more participants re-entered and enquiry improved for end-January 2026 and early-February 2026 panamax bulk carrier positions. The Atlantic panamax bulk carrier market held relatively steady, with fronthaul panamax bulk carriers proving more resilient and helping to work through prompt tonnage, while transatlantic demand remained moderate. In the Pacific panamax bulk carrier market, the shipowner selling pressure seen in quarter 4 2025 has largely disappeared; Indonesian demand improved, and owners defended higher ideas, particularly for modern panamax bulk carriers. Cargo volumes were uneven, but tightening prompt supply in Asia supported rates. The improving backdrop was mirrored by the Baltic Panamax Index (BPI) P5TC, which climbed through the week to finish at $12,108.
Ultramax / Supramax Bulk Carrier Market – Baltic Supramax Index (BSI)
The first full week for many after the seasonal holiday was largely uneventful. With both Atlantic and Pacific basins still rebalancing—and the usual gap between cargo flow and ultramax and supramax bulk carriers—charterers largely dictated terms. In the Atlantic ultramax and supramax bulk carrier market, levels stayed depressed: a 64K DWT ultramax bulk carrier open Argentina to Bangladesh fixed at around $15,500 plus $550,000 BB (ballast bonus), while a 63K ultramax bulk carrier open Argentina to the Netherlands fixed close to $21,500. The Continent-Mediterranean again lacked energy, with a 64K DWT ultramax bulk carrier open UK to Turkiye done near $17,500. Asia was similarly heavy with prompt tonnage: a 63K ultramax bulk carrier open South Korea via North Pacific (NOPAC) to Vietnam fixed around $11,000, and a 55K supramax bulk carrier open Indonesia to the Philippines fixed near $12,500. The Indian Ocean also offered limited support, with a 64K DWT ultramax bulk carrier open UAE to Bangladesh fixed around $15,000.
Handysize Bulk Carrier Market – Baltic Handysize Index (BHSI)
As expected, the first full week of the year was characterized by thin activity in both Atlantic and Asian basins, keeping handysize bulk carrier sentiment on the negative side. In the Atlantic handysize bulk carrier market, the overall feel remained soft as tonnage lists stayed lengthy in most loading areas. A 37K DWT handysize bulk carrier open Egypt Med to Brazil fixed around $6,000. The U.S. Gulf (USG) and ECSA (East Coast South America) handysize bulk carrier market saw some new cargo interest, but it was not sufficient to meaningfully reduce the oversupply of open tonnage, leaving rates under pressure and below previous levels. A 35K DWT handysize bulk carrier open Argentina to (or on a trip to) Peru fixed near $18,500, while a 35K DWT handysize bulk carrier open US Gulf (USG) to Turkiye fixed around $15,000. In Asia, the handysize bulk carrier market stayed weak as owners with prompt ships lowered expectations amid limited cargo availability, leading to further erosion. A 33K DWT handysize bulk carrier open North China to East Coast India (ECI) fixed around $9,500. Handysize bulk carrier period business remained limited, with most handysize bulk carrier operators maintaining a cautious stance and avoiding additional exposure for the time being.
