The Baltic Exchange's main dry bulk index rose 56 points, or 4.2%, to 1,385 on June 29. The capesize index rose 7.2% to 2,170 after eight sessions of losses, and the panamax index rose 0.4%.
Higher capesize and panamax earnings raise the cost of moving bulk cargoes, including grain, across oceans. This makes ocean grain freight somewhat more expensive for buyers.
