The Panic-Proof Portfolio (Stockchase Research) Global Ship Lease Inc GSL-N TOP PICK Mar 13, 2025

Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O’Reilly

We reiterate this Greek shipping company as a TOP PICK.  Global shipping will need to step in to assist global trade supply chain adjustments and this company is well suited to participate.  We like that cash reserves are growing, while shares are bought back.  It trades at 3x earnings, under book value and supports a 26% ROE.  Management says that over three-quarters of their capacity is already booked for 2025.  The yield is attractive and is supported by a payout ratio under 20% of cash flow.  We recommend trailing up the stop (from $17) to $19, looking to achieve $28 — upside potential over 20%.  Yield 7.3%

(Analysts’ price target is $27.75)
$22.980
