            The small-tonnage freight market remains under pressure, which, however, is quite expected: in the last 10 years, ship owners managed to prevent the rate decline in January-February only in 2021.

            Activity remains minimal on the small-tonnage freight market, which is quite traditional for the very beginning of January. Thus, the 1H-mid January tonnage list is gradually growing in the Black and Mediterranean Seas, with only Ukrainian grains being relatively actively offered among all the cargoes.
