Marine Shipping Stocks
Marine Shipping: ZIM Integrated Shipping Services Ltd. owns the largest revenue base; Okeanis Eco Tankers Corp. has the fastest current growth.
How has Marine Shipping moved against S&P 500?
The line below covers up to 5.2 years and opens on the 5Y view; the buttons cut it shorter. Over the most recent two of them this industry is 14% ahead of S&P 500. Earnings across its companies fell 20% on average over the last four reported quarters.
RS — · 21/23 >200d (+1) · 4/23 lead (+2) · EPS 11/22↑
Both lines start at 200 in the same week, so the distance between them is the whole story: the industry line is an equal-weighted index of its 23 companies. The bars underneath are trailing 12-month earnings per share, one bar per reported quarter, each member rebased to 100 at the start and the industry taking the median — so a price line pulling away from flat bars is a re-rating, not earnings. A bar turns red when that figure is lower than the quarter before. Rules are fixed and applied identically everywhere on this site: ahead by 5% or more over three months, or behind by 20% or more over a year while earnings grew 20% or more. Hover any point to read both values and the gap. This is a description of what the numbers did, not advice.
Is Marine Shipping outperforming S&P 500?
Marine Shipping has outperformed S&P 500 by 38.7% over the last 52 weeks. Over 13 weeks the gap is a shortfall of 3%. 17 of 23 covered companies currently beat the S&P 500 on Mansfield relative strength, so leadership inside the sector is selective. Seanergy Maritime Holdings Corp. is the strongest against the sector itself at +18.1%.
Sector metric: — as of latest available · unclassified · direction unavailable.
The central tension: the companies with the most scale are not necessarily the companies creating the most change.
Start with scale. Then earnings trajectory. Then business quality. Only after those three agree should price leadership carry much weight.
Bottom line
Marine Shipping has outperformed S&P 500 by 38.7% over 52 weeks and 3% over 13 weeks. 17 of 23 covered companies beat the S&P 500 on Mansfield relative strength, while 10 of 23 beat the sector itself. ZIM Integrated Shipping Services Ltd. leads with revenue of $6,295 million, based on 17 of 23 comparable companies through Mar 2026.
4-Factor Sector Score
An additive sector-relative research score. The four displayed point contributions always equal the total: Growth & earnings (35), Capital efficiency (25), Valuation (20), and Relative strength (20). Missing or stale evidence is absorbed inside the affected factor, never applied as a hidden adjustment.
How this score is built, and what the marks mean
Missing observations are not scored as bad. Their missing weight lowers confidence and pulls the final score toward neutral. PEG is not shown when the ratio cannot mean anything: the company must be making a profit, its price-to-earnings must be positive, and its three-year earnings growth must fall between 5% and 60%. Dividing a price multiple by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, produces a number that looks precise and tells you nothing. Under relative strength, one mark per week shows the last 12 weeks: a mark is filled where the company led S&P 500 by 5% or more over the 13 weeks ending that week, which is the same test used everywhere on this site. Price stage places the company on the same six-step curve the sector itself is placed on — basing, turning, breaking out, leader, fading, asleep — read from how many weeks running it has led S&P 500 and whether that lead is widening or shrinking. It describes where the PRICE stands, not the earnings trajectory and not a recommendation, and it is left blank for a company whose weekly history is too short or too stale to read.

Market action
Okeanis Eco Tankers Corp. has the strongest one-year price move in Marine Shipping at +142.3%. Seanergy Maritime Holdings Corp. leads on Mansfield relative strength against the S&P 500 at +32.7%. 17 of 23 covered companies are above zero on that measure. Every line covers 314 weekly closes through 2026-08-04.
Every company, the sector's own index and S&P 500 all start level on the left edge of the window, so only the distance between the lines counts — the highest line has risen the most since then, and the chart at the top of this page is drawn the same way. It opens on one year; the buttons beside it stretch that to three or five.
How far ahead of or behind S&P 500 each company has been running, measured against its own recent average of that comparison, so the flat line at zero IS S&P 500: above it the company is beating the market, below it the market is beating the company. It opens on one year.
The same measure taken against Marine Shipping itself instead of the whole market, so the flat line at zero is the sector: above it the company is beating its own peers, which is the sharper test of the two. It opens on one year.
Revenue Scale & Growth Durability
ZIM Integrated Shipping Services Ltd. has the highest Revenue among the 23 Marine Shipping companies compared here, at $6,295 million. Matson, Inc. is next at $3,321 million. Okeanis Eco Tankers Corp. has the highest Revenue growth at 33.1%, so level and change sit with different companies. 17 of 23 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Mar 2026.
What the numbers say: ZIM Integrated Shipping Services Ltd. is the scale leader at $6,295 million, 89.6% ahead of Matson, Inc.. Okeanis Eco Tankers Corp.'s growth is 33.1% from a $482 million base, with 17 reported observations in the 20-quarter window. Treat the growth leader as an acceleration candidate, not as equally proven scale.
Investor read: ZIM Integrated Shipping Services Ltd. is the scale benchmark; Okeanis Eco Tankers Corp. is the acceleration watch. Promote the challenger only if growth persists and converts into margin and returns.
This conclusion weakens if: ZIM Integrated Shipping Services Ltd.'s growth falls below Okeanis Eco Tankers Corp.'s for two consecutive comparable reports while operating margin also compresses.

Operating Economics & Margin Trend
Euroseas Ltd. has the highest OPM among the 23 Marine Shipping companies compared here, at 61.2%. Okeanis Eco Tankers Corp. is next at 57.6%. Seanergy Maritime Holdings Corp. has the highest Margin change at +43.9 percentage points, so level and change sit with different companies. 23 of 23 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Mar 2026.
What the numbers say: Euroseas Ltd. leads opm at 61.2%; Seanergy Maritime Holdings Corp. leads margin change at +43.9 percentage points.
Investor read: Euroseas Ltd. sets the level benchmark; use the change leader as an inflection watch only after another comparable report confirms it.
This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current margin change signal.

Profit Scale & Acceleration
Danaos Corporation has the highest Net profit among the 23 Marine Shipping companies compared here, at $520 million. Hafnia Limited is next at $457 million. Diana Shipping Inc. has the highest Profit growth at the 100% top of the scoring scale, so level and change sit with different companies.
What the numbers say: Danaos Corporation leads with $520 million of TTM profit, 13.8% above Hafnia Limited. Diana Shipping Inc. shows ≥100% on the scoring scale (214.3% uncapped) growth from a $44 million profit base. Compare the size of the base and persistence before ranking acceleration above profit scale.
Investor read: Danaos Corporation sets the level benchmark; use the change leader as an inflection watch only after another comparable report confirms it.
This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current profit growth signal.

Okeanis Eco Tankers Corp. has the highest ROCE among the 23 Marine Shipping companies compared here, at 8.6%. Ardmore Shipping Corporation is next at 7.1%. The same company also holds the highest ROCE change, at +6.4 percentage points. 23 of 23 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Mar 2026.

Okeanis Eco Tankers Corp. has the strongest latest improvement at +6.4 percentage points. Read the leader beside the density of its reported history: a sparse high return is a candidate; a repeated high return is evidence of durability.

This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current roce change signal.

Valuation Against Growth & Quality
Diana Shipping Inc. has the lowest PEG among the 23 Marine Shipping companies compared here, at 0.1×. StealthGas Inc. is next at 0.12×. Euroseas Ltd. has the lowest P/E at 3.52×, so level and change sit with different companies. 11 of 23 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Mar 2026.
What the numbers say: Diana Shipping Inc. has the lowest comparable PEG at 0.1×, 16.7% below StealthGas Inc.. Only 11 of 23 companies have earnings and growth steady enough for the ratio to mean anything, so no broad “cheapest stock” conclusion is defensible unless the current multiple, own-history position and growth durability agree.
Investor read: Treat valuation as permission to investigate, never as a standalone reason to buy.
This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current p/e signal.

What can make this comparison misleading?
This Marine Shipping comparison names 4 specific ways its own evidence can mislead, all listed below. All 23 companies here report on comparable dates, so no rank carries a stale marker. A high growth rate can still be a low-base artefact.
Keep these limits visible
- A high growth rate can be a low-base artefact. The page keeps level and change separate for that reason.
- A high ROCE can be temporary or flattered by a small capital base. Read it beside margin, cash conversion and reinvestment.
- The 4-Factor Sector Score ranks research priority, not portfolio action. Management quality, catalysts and risks need equally fresh evidence before capital is deployed.
- An “all companies” line chart preserves completeness, but rank changes should be checked against reporting dates before drawing a conclusion.
How was this comparison built?
This comparison is built from the reported filings of 23 Marine Shipping companies, normalized to a common $ scale and a shared quarter axis of up to 20 quarters each. Fundamentals run through Jun 2026 and market data through 2026-08-04. A second data feed fills gaps only after identity and scale reconciliation, and missing observations are never interpolated.
Marine Shipping company comparison FAQs
These 22 answers restate the Marine Shipping comparison above in question form. Every one is computed from the same 23 companies and the same reported filings as the rankings and charts, current through Jun 2026. Price and relative-strength answers run through 2026-08-04. Nothing here is estimated, and none of it is a recommendation.
Is the Marine Shipping sector outperforming S&P 500?
Marine Shipping has outperformed S&P 500 by 38.7% over 52 weeks and 3% over 13 weeks. 17 of 23 covered companies beat the S&P 500 on Mansfield relative strength, while 10 of 23 beat the sector itself.
Which Marine Shipping company is largest by revenue?
ZIM Integrated Shipping Services Ltd. leads with revenue of $6,295 million, based on 17 of 23 comparable companies through Mar 2026.
Which Marine Shipping company is growing fastest?
Okeanis Eco Tankers Corp. has the fastest current revenue growth at 33.1%, across 16 of 23 comparable companies.
Which Marine Shipping company has the strongest 4-Factor Sector Score?
Okeanis Eco Tankers Corp. ranks first at 73.6/100 with 81.1% evidence confidence. The score prioritizes research; it is not a buy recommendation.
Which Marine Shipping company has the lowest comparable PEG?
Diana Shipping Inc. has the lowest comparable PEG at 0.1, among 11 of 23 companies whose earnings and growth are steady enough for the ratio to mean anything.
How much history does this Marine Shipping comparison include?
The page compares up to 20 reported quarters per company for fundamentals, returns and valuation, ending Jun 2026. Missing observations remain blank rather than being estimated.
How is the 4-Factor Sector Score calculated?
The four visible contributions add directly: growth and earnings up to 35 points, capital efficiency up to 25, valuation up to 20, and relative strength up to 20. Missing or stale evidence moves only the affected contribution toward neutral.
Which Marine Shipping company is the biggest?
ZIM Integrated Shipping Services Ltd. is the largest, with trailing-twelve-month revenue of $6,295 million, ahead of Matson, Inc. at $3,321 million. That covers 17 of 23 companies with comparable reporting through Mar 2026.
Which Marine Shipping company has the best profit margins?
Euroseas Ltd. has the highest operating margin at 61.2%, from 23 of 23 comparable companies. Seanergy Maritime Holdings Corp. shows the biggest recent improvement, at +43.9 percentage points. A high margin matters most when it is holding or rising, not when it is peaking.
Which Marine Shipping company makes the most profit?
Danaos Corporation earns the most, at $520 million of trailing-twelve-month net profit, from 17 of 23 comparable companies. Diana Shipping Inc. has the fastest profit growth at 100%, though growth off a small or recovering profit base overstates how much has actually changed.
Which Marine Shipping company earns the highest return on capital?
Okeanis Eco Tankers Corp. leads on return on capital employed at 8.6%, across 23 of 23 companies. Read it beside the length of its reported history: a high return that repeats for years is evidence of a durable business, while a single high reading can be a small capital base or one good year.
Which Marine Shipping stock is the cheapest?
On PEG — where a LOWER number is cheaper — Diana Shipping Inc. screens cheapest at 0.1×. Only 11 of 23 companies have earnings and growth steady enough for the ratio to mean anything, so this is not a sector-wide "cheapest stock" verdict. Cheap on a multiple is a reason to investigate, never a reason to buy on its own.
Is the Marine Shipping sector beating the market?
Marine Shipping has outperformed S&P 500 by 38.7% over the last 52 weeks and 3% over 13 weeks, measured on an equal-weight index of its current members. Inside the sector, 17 of 23 covered companies are beating the market on their own. Sector strength does not transfer evenly to every stock in it.
Which Marine Shipping stock has the strongest price momentum?
Seanergy Maritime Holdings Corp. has the strongest relative strength against S&P 500. Relative strength answers last, after growth, quality and valuation: price can move well before the fundamentals confirm it, and sometimes without them confirming at all.
Which Marine Shipping company scores highest for research priority?
Okeanis Eco Tankers Corp. scores 73.6 out of 100 with 81.1% evidence confidence, from 31.3 points on growth and earnings, 17.6 on capital efficiency, 11 on valuation and 13.7 on relative strength. This ranks what deserves work next. It is not a buy recommendation, and management quality, catalysts and risk still need separate research.
How many Marine Shipping companies does this comparison cover, and over what period?
It compares 23 listed companies over up to 20 reported quarters of fundamentals, ending Jun 2026, plus weekly price and relative-strength history. Membership is the full sector list — nothing is dropped for having thin data.
What is the total market cap of the Marine Shipping sector?
The 23 Marine Shipping companies on this page carry $43,324 million of combined market value. Kirby Corporation is the largest at $7,084 million, about 16% of the sector's total on its own. Market value moves with price, so this reading is dated 2026-08-04.
What is the Marine Shipping sector's P/E ratio?
The median price-to-earnings ratio across the 23 Marine Shipping companies on this page is 8.9×, measured on the 22 that report a comparable figure. A sector-level history for this multiple is not held here, so this is a cross-section of today, not a comparison with the sector’s own past. Figures are as of 2026-08-04.
How is the Marine Shipping sector performing?
17 of the 23 covered Marine Shipping companies are beating S&P 500 on Mansfield relative strength. The sector itself is 38.7% ahead of S&P 500 over 52 weeks on an equal-weight index of its current members. Readings are as of 2026-08-04.
How many Marine Shipping stocks are listed in the US?
This comparison covers 23 listed Marine Shipping companies in the US, each above the size floor the site applies. The full ranked list is on this page, with reported fundamentals through Jun 2026. Membership is the full industry list — nothing is dropped for having thin data.
Why are some values on this page blank?
A blank means that company did not report a comparable figure for that period, so nothing is shown. Missing observations are never interpolated, carried forward, or replaced with a similar-looking accounting line, and a company with missing evidence has its research score pulled toward neutral rather than being scored as bad.
Is this investment advice?
No. Every figure here is a deterministic calculation from reported company filings and market data, published for research. It contains no recommendation to buy or sell any security, does not account for your circumstances, and is not a substitute for advice from a licensed adviser.
