  • SEA: Stable Returns in a Choppy Market?

    (Sun, 12 Oct 2008 10:49:36 -0400)

    Don Dion submits:

    In his recent lampoon of U.S. financial policy, Asia Times reporter Spengler noted, “An American economy based on opening containers from China and selling the contents at Wal-Mart (WMT), or trading houses back and forth, provides scant profitability.” While the future profitability of these methods is a subject of debate, Spengler ’s argument highlights an integral practice—one so ingrained that many fail to notice—the acquisition of raw and finished products overseas and the industry built around their transportation.

    Unless you live by Manhattan’s East River or in the port of Piraeus outside Athens, it is easy to...

  • Rising Oil and the Future of Globalization: Implications for Transport Stocks

    (Fri, 27 Jun 2008 05:41:44 -0400)

    Rabinder Sekhon submits:Rabinder Sekhon

    As oil continues its upward trajectory, so have the costs of transporting goods and materials across oceans. In a globalized world reliant on shipping raw materials to one place to be made into finished goods and sent someplace else, this trend in costs is bound to make the economics of manufacturing in far off places questionable. This is especially true for low value to freight ratio products such as raw materials, furniture, apparel and machinery.

    At $200 a barrel, shipping a container from Shanghai to New York will cost $15,000, compared to $8,000 today and a mere...

  • An Overview of the Global Shipping Industry

    (Tue, 10 Jun 2008 06:55:39 -0400)

    Howard Sun submits:

    Given the uncertainty of the domestic economy, one industry worth considering investing in is commercial shipping. Shipping is the primary means of international transportation of any essential raw material or finished good. Approximately 80% of the cargo and almost 100% of hydrocarbons moved today is by water. The global commercial shipping industry can be classified into the following categories:

  • Danaos Corporation: Stable Shipping Company Sports a 7.4% Yield

    (Wed, 07 May 2008 05:14:26 -0400)

    Before the advent of container shipping in the 1950s and 1960s, shipping goods meant loading individual irregular-shaped items onto a ship. This proved inefficient, as there was no way to move many individual items at once, and securing odd-shaped goods for an ocean voyage took a great deal of time and labor.

    Nowadays, items are packed into standard 20 or 40-foot long containers that can be stacked neatly on the decks of giant ships. Standardizing containers makes it easier to handle loading, unloading, and bundling cargo from multiple shippers. Containerships can carry cargoes as varied as auto parts, consumer goods and...

  • LNC CFO: If markets fall 30% in 4th quarter, account values would fall $15B-$17B

    (Wed, 19 Nov 2008 10:26:58 -0500)

    CHICAGO (MarketWatch) -- If the equity market continues to fall throughout the fourth quarter, insurer Lincoln National Corp. will see a big drop in its account values, the company's chief financial officer said Wednesday. In October, the Standard & Poor's Index fell 17%, which reduced the company's retirement solutions account values by $11 billion and caused estimated deferred acquisition costs, or DAC, unlocking of $200 million to $300 million after tax, and the situation could look worse if the market continues to drop.
