FIS Freight and Commodity Podcast Freight Investor Services

Freight rates hit a year low, with Cape Index losing 70% value and Panamax 33%. We get an update on the freight and FFA market in the last week and month. We discuss volumes, volatility, prices and contributing factors.

The oil market had many swings last year. So, what will it bring for us this year? We have our Fuel Oil desk give us their thoughts on 2022 and things to consider for 2023, as well as a weekly update on freight, and ferrous complex.

John Banaszkiewicz, CEO and founder of Freight Investor Services, has a conversation with us about the FFA market in 2022, FFA in 2023, China opening up and its impact, and what FIS is doing about the war in Ukraine.

A focus on new developments with Ammonia derivatives, how they could be used to manage physical price risk, the market opportunity, the Argus Clean Ammonia Europe Conference, and how grey ammonia derivatives would work in the fertiliser and energy markets.

EU sanctions on Russia, a G7 meeting, a price cap on Russian oil, an OPEC+ meeting, and rare protests in China against zero-COVID rules included in our conversations on how this impacts the freight & FFA market, crude oil & products market, and the ferrous commodity complex.

An overview of the Freight and FFA market; with a rollercoaster of news in China, we hear how that affects Iron Ore and finally end with some colour in the fuel oil market.
