Baltic Dry Index News

Here is a look at how shipping, China, and the stock market are inter-related.

Bruce Krasting, from "Seeking Alpha" has this to say about it :

"Shipping is the backbone of global trade. So when a big index like this makes a big move in a short period of time there is almost always a message. But what message? One could easily read the drop in BDIY as a warning sign of a slowdown in global trade. Virtually every other barometer is pointing up.

On waves of love my heart is breaking...
And stranger still my self control, I can't rely on anymore...
New tides surprise my world it's changing...
Within this frame an ocean swells behind this smile I know it well...

Beneath a lovers moon I'm waiting...
I am the pilot of the storm, a drift in pleasure I may drown
I built this ship it is my making...
And further more my self control I can't rely on anymore...

I know why, I know why 
Crazy on a ship of fools, crazy on a ship of fools 
Turn this boat around 
Back to my loving ground oh no, oh no 

Who claims that no man is an island 
While I land up in jeopardy more distant from you by degrees
I walk this shore in isolation And at my feet eternity dries ever sweeter plans for me 

I know why, I know why
Crazy on a ship of fools, oh, crazy on a ship of fools 

Turn this boat around Back to my loving ground oh no, oh no, ship of fools

Turn this boat around Back to my loving ground oh no, oh, no Crazy on a ship of fools, oh crazy on a ship of fools Turn this boat around Back to my loving ground oh no, oh no, ship of fools
