• Is Viking’s Growth Still Worth the Premium?

Viking, ZIM Integrated Shipping Services, Golar LNG, Frontline, and Star Bulk Carriers are the five Shipping stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat's stock screener tool. "Shipping stocks" are shares of companies involved in maritime transport and its supporting services — for example vessel owners and operators (container lines, dry-bulk and tanker companies), port operators, shipbuilders and other firms tied to ocean freight. These stocks tend to be cyclical and sensitive to global trade volumes, freight-rate benchmarks (e.g., the Baltic Dry Index), fuel costs, and geopolitical or regulatory events that affect shipping capacity and demand. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Shipping stocks within the last several days.
