Evercore changes year-end outlook for dry bulk sector Evercore has changed its optimistic outlook for dry bulk shipping for the rest of 2019, giving a foggy forecast at best amid the sector's unpredictability and US-China trade tensions.

FUTURES 4: Crude settles higher as traders await fresh US-China news Crude futures settled higher Tuesday, but remained within a well-worn range as traders awaited fresh developments out of the US-China trade negotiations and upcoming weekly inventory reports. DUBAI FUTURES: Crude spreads slip on cooling freight rates, open arbitrage Benchmark Dubai crude futures' spreads dipped in mid-morning trading in Asia on Tuesday, amid reports that cooling freight rates have reopened the arbitrage window for crude to flow into the region from the West. CRUDE MOC: Uncertainty keeps Brent/Dubai spread in tight range Benchmark cash Dubai crude fell below ICE Brent futures Tuesday but remained close to parity with the global crude futures marker as uncertainty continued to dominate Asian crude markets. SPOTLIGHT: Freight rates spike to record highs, but likely to cool off quickly VLCC rates have spiked to all-time highs as a number of factors -- from US sanctions on a Chinese shipping giant to ships going into dry dock for scrubber installations -- combined to reduce dramatically the effective VLCC fleet capacity.

ARGENTINA DATA: Refiners increase runs in August to meet fuel oil, diesel demand Argentinian crude oil processing in August rose 2.3% year on year as refiners boosted fuel oil production to supply the power sector, helping to compensate for a minor rise in diesel output and declines in production of gasoline, an industry report showed Tuesday.
