		<description><![CDATA[Is it finally time to buy the dry bulk shippers? DryShips Inc. (DRYS) has surprised on estimates 3 out of the last 4 quarters but investors don&#8217;t seem to care as shares have been mired in a narrow trading range. Yet DryShips is cheap. It is trading at just 4.9x forward estimates. DryShips is somewhat unique in the shipping industry in that it operates both drybulk carriers and also offshore oil deep water drilling units. The dry bulk fleet has a capacity of over 3.5 million deadweight tons and operates 39 drybulk carriers Incorporatedluding 7 Capesize, 30 Panamax and 2 Supramax carriers. The company&#8217;s offshore oil deep water drilling division operates 2 ultra deep water semisubmersible drilling rigs and 4 ultra deep water newbuilding drillships.

		<description><![CDATA[DryShips, Inc.’s (DRYS) fourth-quarter earnings of 23 cents per share were a penny short of the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 24 cents. This excludes a loss of $64.4 million or 24 cents per share associated with various one-time items. However, earnings for the quarter were down substantially from 43 cents in the prior-year quarter. GAAP net loss for the quarter was 1 cent per share, compared to a loss of $18.42 in the prior-year quarter. Earnings for the quarter were aided primarily by the continued performance of both DryShips’ drilling and drybulk units at high utilization rates. China was the driving force in the dry bulk market last year with iron ore and coal imports increasing over the prior year at a record pace. DryShips expects commodity demand to increase ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Tony Daltorio, Investment U Research Funny how bulls and bears can look at exactly the same data, yet come to completely different opinions. Take the Baltic Dry Index, which measures charter rates for ships carrying bulk commodities, for example. Bulls use a high reading as proof that worldwide demand is picking up, whereas bears see it in a more pessimistic light. And with the index down nearly 50% from its June 3 high, bears claim it shows the fragility of demand in China, which drives much of the global demand for commodities. But I believe the Baltic Dry Index is a key gauge of global economic activity. And it begs two questions. What is it doing and how can we make money from it?
