Supramax: realised time-charter earnings
Realised quarterly earnings (dots) with a monthly estimate between them; the shaded band is the typical range. The monthly line averages back to each realised quarter, so it fills the path between them without contradicting them. An estimate, not a market index.
Dots: realised time-charter equivalent, the median across owners each quarter. Line: monthly estimate between realised quarters; band: typical range.

How this index is computed
Daily $/day time-charter equivalent across the standard supramax route basket, averaged from reported charter fixtures and converted to a single index point. Published each business day; non-publishing days simply have no point (weekends and holidays legitimately lag).
