CMB.TECH (Sell, TP: USD7.60) - Dry bulk expansion at a premium

We expect more news to be announced on its Golden Ocean ambitions in the weeks ahead, but the recent SEC filing could indicate a potential future share-based tie-up. In such a scenario, CMB.TECH would vastly expand its dry bulk exposure, with potentially cash-generating assets on the water. However, this is at odds with our more muted dry bulk sector outlook and what we believe was a premium valuation. We reinstate our recommendation with a SELL and USD7.6 target price.
