Repayment of a loan by Diana Containerships is unlikely to fire the starting pistol for a new round of vessel acquisitions by Diana Shipping, executives say.

As TradeWinds reported earlier this week, Diana Shipping views its period as lender to its sibling as a success given the “attractive return” on capital.
