Container shipping equities: what is the current state of affairs?

Since the beginning of November, stock markets across the globe have rallied after the apparent Biden win, and yet again after the
vaccine announcements by Pfizer-BioNtech, Moderna and AstraZeneca-Oxford University. Nonetheless, in our view, a vaccine will be
available next year, not next week, and needs to be transported and supplied globally to have any positive effect.
With the US elections recently concluded, we had a very interesting trading experience in the markets mainly because of vaccine
enthusiasm combined with post-election volatility reduction which led to a massive gain in container shipping stocks. The average
share price return of the 12 selected liner operators on YTD basis was more than +70%. The Drewry liner equity index has registered a
cumulative gain of 16% since the beginning of November until 16 November which speaks volume about the market sentiment.
