Drybulk in ‘state of chaos’ 

29일 美 하원이 금융 위기를 타개하기 위해 7천억불 규모의 공적 자금을 투입하는 투표를 하고 있지만, 세계 대출이 얼어붙고, 원자재 펀더멘틀이 악화됨에 따라 드라이벌크 부문이 여전히 압박을 받고 있다. 구제금융안이라는 날개를 달았음에도 뉴욕 증시에서 신용자산시장은 하락했고, 美 증시가 자유낙하함에 따라 회의만 남았다. "지난 주의 광범위한 시장 혼란은 불에다 기름을 끼얹은 격이었고, 드라이벌크 관련 주식에 심각한 손실을 입혔다"고 Dahlman Rose의 애널리스트 Omar Nokta가 전했다. Excel 대표 Stamatis Moralis는 "신용 경색이 조금만이라도 지속되면, 조선소(특히 신생조선소)들은 카드로 만든 집처럼 무너지기 시작할 것"이라고 말했다. Molaris는 은행들이 지급을 거절하면서 화물들이 항구에서 오도가도 못하고 있다고 말했다. 그는 "이런 일은 우리에게 일어난 일이고, 모두에게 어디서나 일어나고 있는 일"이라고 지적하면서, "전체적인 시스템이 혼돈 상태에 빠졌다"고 말했다. "어떻게 강조해야할지 모르겠지만, 은행들은 더이상 돈을 빌려주지 않고 있다"고 경고했다. Nokata는 또한 철광업자 Vale와 중국 제철업자간의 협상이 드라이벌크에 악영향을 끼쳤다고 말했다. 그에 따르면 중국 관료들이 "제철업자들이 브라질에서 철광석 수입을 중지할 것"이라고 하면서, 브라질 현물 움직임이 급격히 느려지고 있다"고 한다.  

THE GLOBAL lending freeze and worsening commodity fundamentals are still squeezing the drybulk sector, as the US House votes today on an $700Bn bailout to unclog the banking system. 
Scepticism remains on the end result – particularly while credit markets were losing this morning in New York even with the bailout in the wings and US shares were in freefall during early trading.
“Last week’s broad market turmoil added fuel to the fire and resulted in severe losses for all drybulk stocks,” said Dahlman Rose analyst Omar Nokta this morning.
Excel president Stamatis Moralis told Reuters on Friday: “If the credit crunch lasts beyond the short term, shipyards – especially the newer ones – are going to fall like a house of cards.”
Molaris told Reuters that cargoes are being stranded at docks because banks refuse to pay for movements.
“It has happened to us and it is happening everywhere to everyone,” he pointed out. “The whole system has come to a state of chaos.
“I cannot stress this enough: the banks are not lending any money,” Molaris warned.
Nokta also cited drybulk fallout from iron ore producer Vale’s negotiations with Chinese steelmakers.
“Spot activity out of Brazil has slowed dramatically,” he said, adding that Chinese officials “have stated that steel mills will suspend iron ore imports from Brazil, a claim Vale executives have denied”.
