Eagle Bulk Shipping appears to be sticking to the segment it knows best, with brokers linking the US shipowner to a deal that would be its second secondhand ultramax purchase this year.
US brokers said the Connecticut bulker owner has purchased the 63,600-dwt Stony Stream (built 2015) for just $24.2m.
A market source said a deal has not been concluded and that New York-listed Eagle is still negotiating.
