This investor presentation summarizes the current state of freight markets, focusing on tankers, dry bulk carriers and LPG carriers. It analyzes factors influencing supply and demand balances like cargo volumes, new building deliveries, vessel speed and port congestion. Key trends covered include rising US oil production and exports, OPEC policies and their impact on oil prices, Asian and European refining margins, and the shift from contango to backwardation in crude price structures. Data on floating storage, orderbook to fleet ratios and vessel earnings is also presented. The dry bulk section examines trade growth in iron ore, coal and grains, with China as the largest driver of incremental demand increases.
In the report, you can find charts covering from Dry Bulk Freight Rate(Time Charter Rate) to Freight Derivatives(FFA) trends

The Baltic Exchange Dry Index climbed by 5% over the course of the month in spite of a sharp drop in Capesize earnings during the latter part of the month.
While the other two smaller vessel sizes were almost unchanged from a month ago, Panamax has been the strongest performer of the four main Baltic index classes, with the average earning rising by $1,166/day to $6,596/day. As I have predicted in earlier report ‘Coal Trade Market’, increased coal movements have supported panamax freight rate.
Interestingly seasonal strength in US grain season, together with strong commodity prices, have indeed raised physical earnings but still failed to translate into the paper market. Although nearby prices are being driven by short-term seasonal trend, the price for deferred contracts (Cal 2017-19) have not changed much from a month ago. It seems that market judges the current strength would be temporary.
Do you agree with the consensus? It is true that if the spot market is really reflecting a supply-demand balance, then it is future prices which will have to catch up..

A tale of scale & speed: How the US Navy is enabling software delivery from l...sonjaschweigert1
Rapid and secure feature delivery is a goal across every application team and every branch of the DoD. The Navy’s DevSecOps platform, Party Barge, has achieved:
- Reduction in onboarding time from 5 weeks to 1 day
- Improved developer experience and productivity through actionable findings and reduction of false positives
- Maintenance of superior security standards and inherent policy enforcement with Authorization to Operate (ATO)
Development teams can ship efficiently and ensure applications are cyber ready for Navy Authorizing Officials (AOs). In this webinar, Sigma Defense and Anchore will give attendees a look behind the scenes and demo secure pipeline automation and security artifacts that speed up application ATO and time to production.
We will cover:
- How to remove silos in DevSecOps
- How to build efficient development pipeline roles and component templates
- How to deliver security artifacts that matter for ATO’s (SBOMs, vulnerability reports, and policy evidence)
- How to streamline operations with automated policy checks on container images
Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
Threats to mobile devices are more prevalent and increasing in scope and complexity. Users of mobile devices desire to take full advantage of the features
available on those devices, but many of the features provide convenience and capability but sacrifice security. This best practices guide outlines steps the users can take to better protect personal devices and information.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
