Hamish Norton, President of Star Bulk Carriers (NASDAQ:SBLK), Co-CFOs Christos Begleris and Simos Spyrou, and Head of Research Constantinos Simantiras joined J Mintzmyer's Value Investor's Edge Live on June 8, 2022, to discuss the dry bulk markets and forward prospects and capital allocation. Star Bulk Carriers is the largest US-listed dry bulk company with 128 vessels on the water. We discussed overall dry bulk fundamentals, ranging from China's impact on Capesize markets to the impact of the Ukraine invasion on midsize trade routes in grain and coal. We also reviewed the economics of SBLK's scrubber program and current capital allocation priorities.
This interview and discussion is relevant for anyone with dry bulk investments or interest in the overall sector, including Diana Shipping (DSX), Eagle Bulk (EGLE), EuroDry (EDRY), Genco Shipping (GNK), Grindrod Shipping (GRIN), Golden Ocean (GOGL), Navios Maritime Partners (NMM), Pangaea Logistics (PANL), Safe Bulkers (SB), and Seanergy Maritime (SHIP).
