Whilst “expecting” the lift off, on …ground zero the situ so far on Christmas Eve; John Faraclas notes:
BDI standing at 483 points, that’s plus three since yesterday; the BCI plus one at 470 points; Panamaxes and its BPI plus five at 462. BSI and BHSI at no change 450 and 270 respectively…
The Wets once again with mixed “fillings” at 869 for the BDTI, that’s minus four and 580 for the BCTI, that’s plus two.
A market for the brave ones and for those who know thyself… Merry Christmas!
