Frontline, Scorpio Tankers, and Viking are the three Shipping stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat’s stock screener tool. “Shipping stocks” are shares of publicly traded companies that operate maritime transport and related services—such as container lines, dry-bulk and tanker carriers, freight forwarders, and port or terminal operators. Investors in these stocks typically watch global trade volumes, freight and charter rates, fuel costs, vessel supply, and regulatory or geopolitical factors because the sector is highly cyclical and sensitive to macroeconomic changes.
