Market Overview
We reverted to the Phys Newc hub providing todays trades, with the Feb trading in Asian hours, detailed below, followed in London hours with an April clip going through at $125.00/t. Paper markets suffered losses across all products, with front end API#2 down by $3.00/t, while the same part of the API#4 curve lost $2.00/t. The wider energy scene also posted losses across the board, with front month Brent sliding $0.25/bbl lower to close the week around $78.85/bbl.

From the Asian Desk
The Phys Newc market saw a 25kt clip of Feb concluded on screen today at $125.25/mt EFP basis. The Indo 3800NAR market heard a bid at $58/mt for prompt end Jan loading panamax. In the Australian HA 5500NAR market, a bid was heard at mid $90s level for a February loading panamax.

From the Met Desk
The Feb HCCA Branded offer of yesterday returned to the screen today at $334.0, and despite the price of said cargo improving by $3.0 from yesterday, the offer couldn't manage to draw in screen bids.
