Super Tankers and Super Volatile Oil Prices http://seekingalpha.com/article/113846-super-tankers-and-super-volatile-oil-prices?source=feed#comment-351346 351346 The tanker industry is, can be and has been quite perplexing over the last decade. The best predictor, for some obscure reason, on stock price is the price of crude. That doesn't look good for FRO, but their management is very creative in times like this. I would not short at these levels.
It would be interesting to know what rates the tankers were getting for storage. Has to be less than transport w/ no bunkers or crews to pay for.

I've been long FRO for about 5 yrs and have been amply rewarded. other JF cos like Seadrill, golden ocean and ship finanace are also based on the high div model and have been behaving similarly.
the PE was low for quite some time, but the stock was paying out high teen bucks per year w/ the spinoffs. Analysts were really down on it, like the Citi guy. I don't think he ever got it right. Still hasn't.
JF is looking to do a 5:1 split some time in the future increasing shares held by co from 125 mil to 625. Not sure what the motive is, but it should be interesting. Currently 74 mil in circulation w/ JF owning 34 mil or so.
Time to stop rambling. They say don't fall in love with a stock, but this one is hard not to.
