MPC Container Ships (Hold, TP: NOK27.00) - HOLD your horses

The freight market cycle extension, which in our view previously relied on faith, is in fact materialising with congestion again taking a turn for the worse, likely elevating rates even further before the inevitable decline at some point in the future. As we are approaching meaningful potential for contract renewals, we find the risk/reward increasingly reasonable. We have upgraded our recommendation to HOLD (SELL) with a target price of NOK27 (23) as we now see increased visibility on near-term durations and timecharter rates.
