+70.26%

(closed on 12/08/08)
<> 
Given the global economic slowdown, lower commodity prices, and cool-down in former red-hot grow markets such as China; the accompanying table presents statistics and an overview of a global transport short ETF strategy for passenger airlines, auto makers, maritime, and trucking companies.
While I am still bullish on the prospects for railroads as a long investment idea and a hedge to these short transport ETF ideas, they will also suffer to some degree depending on the length and depth of the s...

<> Relative to its industry, DRYS is extremely undervalued. DRYS's projected PE is only 5.4x while its industry's projected PE is 10.1x...implying that this stock should be $140 (so a $100 projected stock price is conservative)...the PEG story is even more severe, with an implied earnings growth rate of 108%...DRYS has a PEG of 0.05 while the industry is trading at 0.85...for some reason this stock is not being given credit for the growth that analysts are predicting...(the implied, projected stock price using PEG is even higher, which just illustrates the point)...here is the analysis: <><><><>...

Excel Maritime Carriers (EXM) to Dilute Shareholders by 13%
|
|
|
We will all look fondly back at the period of this March and April when companies were rewarded handsomely for diluting their shareholders by 20, 40, 50%+ - I will remember seeing my REIT shorts destroyed as REITs diluted shareholders in excess of >50% and yet the stock went up. But that fairy tale era seems to be over. Being serially diluted is fun when you fear for the life of your company but not so fun in normal times. It appears we are heading back to normal.
Excel Maritime Carriers (EXM) announced a dilution today of about 13%, 6M shares. Compared to peer DyrShips (DRYS) who has ...

DryShips also seen an increased contribution fro...
