The Baltic Exchange's dry bulk index, which monitors shipping rates for vessels transporting dry commodities, experienced a decline on Thursday, snapping a four-day upward trend by falling approximately 0.7% to 2,002 points. This decrease was primarily driven by reduced demand in the larger vessel segment. Specifically, the capesize index, which generally handles cargoes of 150,000 tons such as iron ore and coal, dropped 2.4% to 3,131 points. Conversely, the panamax index, associated with transporting 60,000-70,000 tons of coal or grain, increased by 2.1% to 1,716 points. Additionally, the supramax index saw a rise of 14 points, or 1.3%, reaching 1,062 points.
