The
BDI data is critical for all
the DryBulk Shipping stocks. The
Baltic Dry Index (BDI) is a number issued daily
by the London-based Baltic Exchange.
Not restricted to Baltic Sea countries, the
index tracks worldwide international
shipping prices of various dry bulk
cargoes.The BDI is one of the purest leading
indicators of economic activity. It
measures the demand to move raw materials and
precursors to production, as well as
the supply of ships available to move this
cargo. Consumer spending and other
economic indicators are backward looking,
meaning they examine what has already
occurred. The BDI offers a real time glimpse at
global raw material and infrastructure
demand.
