Promising Shipping Stocks To Watch Now – February 1st

Viking, Frontline, ZIM Integrated Shipping Services, Almonty Industries, Scorpio Tankers, Star Bulk Carriers, and Pitney Bowes are the seven Shipping stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat’s stock screener tool. Shipping stocks are shares of companies involved in maritime transport and related services — for example container lines, tanker and dry-bulk ship operators, shipbuilders, ports, and marine logistics firms. For investors they offer exposure to global trade and freight rates and tend to be cyclical and sensitive to factors like shipping demand, vessel supply, fuel costs, and regulation, which can make them volatile but potentially lucrative in shipping upswings. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Shipping stocks within the last several days.
