Article summary:
1. This study examines the risk-return trade-off in the dry bulk freight market.
2. Shipowners are not uniformly risk averse, as finance theory suggests, since their utility functions are concave (risk-averse) for losses and convex (risk-seeking) for gains.
3. There exists a negative association between risk and return for long-term contracts, suggesting that shipowners are willing to offer a discount on time-charter rates over spot rates to compensate for the loss of flexibility.
