Hi Ben, I'll see what I can do. The site I was using for data no longer allows downloads. If you know of a site that has historical data on the BDI that I can download, I will be happy to update it. Thanks!

Cheers,
Brian

Hi Charles:
The Guggenheim Shipping ETF (SEA) could be used as a proxy for the Baltic Dry Index.
You can download an Excel spreadsheet from the Guggenheim website at –
