Suezmax spot rates jumped Wednesday as the sector intensified this week's rebound from its downward spiral.

The Baltic Exchange's assessment of the average time-charter equivalent rate for the sector jumped nearly $2,580 in one day, bringing daily earnings to roughly $3,480 per day.

That's an increase from a TCE rate of just $426 on Friday and the highest level since 9 August, but it's still a very low rate.
