Baltic Dry Index: Looking bad

Houston, We have a problem

The Baltic Dry index measures global shipping and is a great leading indicator for international trade.  Use it like the Ceridian index for the domestic economy.  The BDI is headed down and is now just above Double Dip territory.

HT to the madhedgefundtrader on Zero Hedge who points out the problem
