DryShips stopped paying interest on loans

DryShips stopped paying interest on loans for which it had already halted principal payments. George Economou appears to make complete the debt payment freeze. DryShips announced two months ago that it missed balloon payments on two bank facilities that matured and then suspended principal payments on the rest. The company's shares plunged 16.4% in after-hours trading on the Nasdaq after today's announcement.
