First market takes (hot takes?) of 2023: $SPY $QQQ look like the biggest bubbles left. Bombed-out small caps look far more attractive. I'd even take $ARKK vs. $SPY this year.

Other huge remaining bubble is US housing mkt...

That said, retail investors are very bearish (1/4):
Hard to fully measure this sentiment, but I think the collapse of $ARKK and other 'fanboy' stocks like $TSLA reflect a lot.

Reading WSB or browsing FinTwit for awhile is getting increasing depressing.

Meanwhile blue chips + big tech are still 30x+ P/E?!

What gives? (2/4)
Part is flight to safety (like how bonds used to outperform in bad years... until 2022). Also likely due to large/lazy institutions with captive assets and passive indexing.

Meanwhile retailers and traders have all panic dumped or been margin called.

How am I positioning? (3/4)

Let's explore about the business model of the #shippingindustry! Shipping is a vital part of the global economy, with goods being transported around the world by sea, air, and land.
The business model of the shipping industry is centered around the movement of goods from one location to another. Shipping companies charge fees for transporting goods from one port to another, or from one country to another. #maersk
The shipping industry has a number of different business models, depending on the type of goods being transported and the mode of transportation. For example, #container shipping is a popular business model for transporting large volumes of standardized cargo.

Earlier today, #EU agreed on a badly needed reform of the EU Emissions Trading System (#EUETS) which is the system of cap-and-trade of #carbonemissions allowances for #energyintensive industries and the #powergeneration sector. The most critical points are:
1. Agreement to make it compulsory for #EU members to dedicate all their auctioning revenues to #climateaction #investments
2. Sectors covered by the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (recently agreed #EU #carbon import tax) such as #cement, #aluminium, #fertilisers, #electricty production, #hydrogen, #iron and #steel, will see an end to free #allowances for these sectors between 2026 and 2034

📣Record boxship deliveries forecast for 2023 and 2024 Image
2 of 6
The global container ship #orderbook has continued to creep up since midyear, despite a weakening market sentiment. While container lines are still highly profitable, #freight rates and charter rates are now on a downward trajectory, indicating the market has peaked. Image
3 of 6
Both freight and #vessel time charter rates are still high historically, but the general feeling is that the market is about to correct itself and normalize some time in 2023. Across many trade lanes, #cargo volumes are weakening, and spot rates are coming down swiftly.

Think Different- in #shipping. A case study rvw 🧵.

We published our first public bullish report on #containership #shipping 2 yrs ago.

Our picks: +386% after 2y, *after* including the big pullback in mid-2022 (1y returns even higher!).

Report: seekingalpha.com/article/437598…

1/6
After patiently accumulating #shipping during the 2020 carnage, we shared a conviction sector alert in August 2020 with 5 diversified picks.

This call was *NOT* popular at the time.

+224% in 25 months after after weak trading this summer.

Report: seekingalpha.com/article/436830…

2/6
More recently, our exclusive #shipping #research focus shifted to #tankers, where we issued a buy report on 31 January 2022 due to skewed negative sentiment and lopsided risk/reward.

Very few talking tankers back then!

+153% in 8 months.

South Carolina, Civil War and Gamecock trend. Charleston, SC is home to USS CLAMAGORE (SS-343). She’s a WW2 Balao-class / Cold War GUPPY II then GUPPY III submarine now being scrapped. Let me show you her today and take you on board… 1/ #WW2 #Submarines #Coldwar #CivilWar
2/ #USNavy #ships #shipping #shipspotting - #VirtualTour of USS CLAMAGORE (SS-343), a WW2 Balao-class / Cold War GUPPY II then GUPPY III submarine being scrapped. @USN_Submariner @CovertShores @submarines4ever @RLitwiller
@USN_Submariner @CovertShores @submarines4ever @RLitwiller 3/ I only toured Clamagore once. It's by the #WW2 / #ColdWar aircraft carrier CV-10 Yorktown. As we approach, note the smaller sail of USS Drum (top), which Clamagore would have resembled as first built in 1945 and the GUPPY III conversion sail (bottom).

Shipping is one of your service quality indicators.

Before choosing a shipping company, there are many things to consider so it tailors to your business’s needs.

#shipping #china #malaysia

Did you know that the most common reason for customers to abandon their shopping cart is due to the shipping cost?

If customers do not get their product fast or in good shape, they will rule your service as poor.
So, choosing your shipping partner could be tricky as it impacts your business greatly.

I see many early analyses of the EU's #oil #embargo against Russia but one crucial point that is not mentioned very often is that the package is almost certainly going to include a #shipping #insurance ban.

This might make or break the EU's oil embargo. 🧵
The details still need to be fleshed out, but if it is included, the #insuranceban is a potentially powerful tool.

95% of shipping insurance for Russian oil was carried out in Europe, primarily in London.

bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
The insurance ban would not just affect Russian oil exports to Europe. It would affect Russian oil exports everywhere else.

Seeing some misinfo from containership bears/skeptics about 'NAV in peak markets. To be clear, what we cite as 'adj. NAV' at @Shipping_VIE are based on fixed charters and terminal valuations close to demolition.

Comparison:
-$DAC: $326/sh (adj. $165)
-$GSL: $135/sh (adj. $44)
For those who say "NAV will crash if markets turn down," Duh! The $326 and $135 is very high... That's a strawman argument here.

These stocks are wildly cheap. I believe containers offer significantly better risk/reward vs. other #shipping. Do your own DD and see what you think.
When rates come down in the future and asset values "crash," the raw NAV (assets minus debts) will come way down. However, in a falling market, charters become *more* valuable and adj. NAV might even go *up* in certain scenarios.

Has happened 2x already in past 15y.

It seems simple, but putting stuff in a #container - in essence a standardized box - is the biggest #shipping advance of the past century. And #Russia is losing the capacity to play.
1/
marinelink.com/news/russia-fa…
Many results:
-(un)loading takes days, not hours
-#ports/#logistics hubs require 10x the land for specialized buildings to house #inventory
-shipping costs at least 3x (7x is probably more accurate)
-backlogs at all shipping hubs
2/
-requires 10x the staff required to handle cargo
-MASSIVE expansion of corruption because everyone can see every bit of the cargo

Big section on this (and its end) in the #Transport chapters of the upcoming book: #TheEndOfTheWorldIsJustTheBeginning.

Thread! I found something.

🚨ALERT!🚨
Shipping/Freight are about to become ALOT more expensive. With the war in #Ukraine, it's time to talk bunkers.

No; not the protective kind. The fuel kind.

Bunker Fuel.
CC @DoombergT @WallStreetSilv @goldsilver_pros @ttmygh #fintwit
First off, what is bunker fuel?

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuel_oil

In short - nasty stuff. When you refine crude oil into petroleum products, you get lots of byproducts. There's still energy in these things, but also more impurities and it's more viscous - meaning thicker, harder to pump.
You probably know that Gasoline sits at the top while Bitumen sits at the bottom. Bitumen is basically asphalt, not something you want to burn.

Anything too dirty/heavy to burn around humans because it's too toxic, but still viscous enough to pump, is classified as "bunker fuel"

What Is a CoO?

A certificate of origin is a document declaring in which country a commodity or good was manufactured
The certificate of origin contains information regarding the product, its destination, and the country of export marked “Made in USA” or “Made in China”.
Required by many treaty agreements for cross-border trade, the CO is an important form because it can help determine whether certain goods are eligible for import, or whether goods are subject to duties.

Steps for obtaining a Paper Certificate of Origin:

Value Investor's Edge #shipping models gained 136.2% in 2021.

We beat the S&P 500 by 109% (4.7x) & Russell 2K by 121% (9.3x) + delivered a 6th straight year of sector alpha.

New 2022 models are now live! Two week research free trials available this week: mintzmyer.com
6yr performance based on tracked trades (2016-2018) and model portfolios (2019-2021). We switched to model portfolios in '19 for ease of tracking and updating. SEA ETF for industry comps 2016-2019 and for 2020-2021 we averaged US+Oslo #shipping stocks since there's no large ETF.
Our most profitable model position YTD was $ZIM, which wasn't included at the start of the year since it wasn't public yet, but I personally bought $11-$14 post-IPO and we added it to our Speculative model with a 2x weighting in our February 2nd rebalancing at $14.11.
