17 Feb 2023I really enjoy your insights and thank you for them. Please note that the results of Textainer and GSH are not comparable as GSH does not operate in the container shipping market. GSH operates handy size dry bulk carriers. The index that measures the performance of bulk carriers is the BDI. You will note that this index shows long periods of stable but low earnings with occasional bursts of high earning activity. It answers your question would you go short or long on GSH!

17 Feb 2023Hi Mike! Thanks for the kind words. Interesting one to discuss – they aren’t the same for sure, but would you say there’s at least some read-through from what we’ve seen in both cases? Also interesting to note Zeda’s comments about supply chains easing up in vehicles and similar commentary out of Barloworld a day later re: lead times for supply chains.
