Breakwave's bi-weekly dry bulk report says trade-policy headlines dominate freight sentiment, with a potential US-China agreement improving sentiment for grain-focused Panamax and Supramax segments. The report expects Capesize spot activity to pick up in early-to-mid November while near-term rate direction remains downward.
A US-China grain deal would support grain freight demand and rates, but the report views a meaningful adjustment as unlikely, so the freight impact for feed buyers is limited.
