Seanergy Maritime: The Capesize Pureplay Trading At A Substantial Discount And With Rising Dividends
Seanergy Maritime (SHIP) is a capesize-focused shipping company trading at a significant discount to its net asset value, benefiting from strong capesize freight rates and an updated dividend policy targeting 50% of operating cash flow.
