The Baltic Dry Index is sometimes referred to, but most investors aren’t really sure what it is. We’ll take a brief look into what the BDI is and why it’s important.

It is renowned for its view as perhaps the most important indicator in the shipping industry. That’s arguable, but it is still valuable data and so we must certainly keep a close eye on it.
