Shipping IPO prospects slim as capital-market access plunges

Wall Street NYSE NASDAQ shipping stocks

In the mid-2000s, an entire subindustry emerged in New York to help raise capital for shipowners. Investment banks, lawyers and accountants raked in fees on initial public offerings (IPOs), follow-ons, takeovers and restructurings. Private fund managers bought equity and sold credit products.

In 2020, you could hear the crickets in these circles. Deal flow was even worse than last year.

According to analysis of public filings by American Shipper, U.S.-listed owners of pure commercial shipping...

Could this year’s presidential election spark similar tumult for shipping equities?

The rise of the shipping penny stock

Pennies

“How much percentage of a play can there be altogether?” Max Bialystok asked his accountant Leo Bloom in the movie “The Producers.”

“Max, you can only sell 100% of anything,” said Leo. “And how much of ‘Springtime for Hitler’ have we sold?” asked Max.

Bloom: “25,000%.”

Of course, it’s illegal to sell more than 100% of anything at once. But you can sell more than 100% of existing shares by increasing the total number of shares.

A lot more.

The key is to find enough buyers who don’t care they’re...

A lost decade for shipping stocks

burning cash

A decade after the Great Recession, shipping stocks once again wallow in a sea of red, with yet another plunge on Friday due to coronavirus fears. 

There’s a sense of deja vu, not just because there’s another global crisis, but because there has been so little evolution in the public shipping space over the past 10 years.  Shipowners on Wall Street were supposed to mature into the kind of blue-chip, consolidated, corporate, creditworthy investment vehicles that are coveted by the long-only funds...
