The company stands out with exceptional growth, outstanding profitability, robust stock momentum, and a very attractive valuation. That said, the trend is your friend until it isn’t. During the present conflict in the Middle East, tankers can charge whatever the market will bear. Analysts look like they predict the conflict will be settled next year, and rates will be back to normal. Please, if you have it, then hold it. If you are considering buying it, realize this is a special opportunity and speculative play.
