Staying Afloat: A Primer on the Shipping Industry

Thanks to all who have attempted a positive input into the drybulk shipping sector. You all were very informative. To those few who were critical of your comments yet added nothing to the effort You all simply missed a good chance to shut up. I have followed the "dry bulk" and "container" shipping sectors for some time now. I have weighed the pros and cons between "spot" market rates and time charter rates and their relation or nonrelation to the Baltic dry index. And those companies with modern fleets as opposed to "used" and on and on ad finitem. Their is one shipping company that meets or almost meets the various criteria set out by you all for a long term buy and hold at this time. That company would be the container ship fleet od Sea Span (SSW)
