Genco Shipping: Buy The Pullback For Richer Dividend Yields

Summary

• The wider correction observed in the dry bulk stocks has been unwarranted indeed, attributed to the still higher spot rates and ongoing supply demand imbalance.
• The same has been observed in GNK's higher contracted TCE rates, richer adj EBITDA margins, healthier balance sheet, and richer dividend policy.
• This is on top of the management's similarly promising FQ4'24 guidance, with investors likely looking forward to another rich payout ahead.
• At the same time, readers must note of the dry bulk sector's relatively low new building order book, with the spot TCE rates likely to remain higher for longer.
• Combined with the ongoing "fleet growth/ renewal strategy" and the management's ability to "lock in fixed (and highly favorable) rate charters," GNK is a compelling Buy here.
