Bulkers:
The BDI is on freefall as today it has plummeted to 560 points, six points shy from the August 1986 historical low of 554 points and dangerously close to the record low of 509 points of 18th February at the beginning of the year. No one predicted that this year would start and end at such low levels; market's psychology is non-existent while asset values are decreasing on a weekly basis.
