35Dear friends
After careful consideration, I have decided to throw out golgende in my portfolio reduction:
I see little growth in these stocks...and they are one of my smallest positions
with the freed up cash I would $PRY (-1.36%) and $ATCO B (-0.87%) buy
what do you think or would you kick out other stocks?

(Reuters) - Australian miner Fortescue reported higher iron ore shipments in the third quarter on Thursday, in line with analysts' expectations, as production recovered after a train derailment in the year-ago quarter.
The iron ore producer, chaired by its billionaire founder Andrew Forrest, reported quarterly iron ore shipments of 46.1 million metric tons (mt), up from 43.3 million mt a year earlier. This was broadly in line with Visible Alpha's consensus estimate of 46.8 million mt.
The increase in iron ore shipments is possible despite Fortescue having to contend with significant weather-related disruptions, including a five-day closure of the Port Hedland port and operational restrictions caused by tropical cyclone Zelia, which resulted in a 7% quarter-on-quarter decline.
Shares in the world's fourth-largest iron ore producer rose as much as 2.1% to a four-week high of 15.8 Australian dollars, outperforming the 0.3% rise in the mining sector as a whole. Fortescue stated that the Iron Bridge production schedule to reach full production capacity of 22 million tons per annum remains under review. The assessment of key processing facilities is expected to be completed by June.
For its green energy division, Fortescue is currently reassessing the development timelines for its Arizona project in the US and its Queensland-based Gladstone PEM50 project. By June, there should be "more clarity" on the external factors affecting these projects.
The company maintained its forecast for iron ore deliveries in the 2025 financial year of 190 to 200 million tons, including 5 to 9 million tons for Iron Bridge (at 100%). The planned capital expenditure of USD 3.5 to 3.8 billion for 2025 also remains unchanged.
Fortescue delivered its first T 264 Power System to mining equipment manufacturer Liebherr during the quarter. The system is designed to convert diesel mining vehicles into zero-emission vehicles as part of the company's decarbonization efforts.
The markets are still quite volatile. Although most of the markets are already rising again today, the only question is for how long. Nevertheless, I took the opportunity to buy a few more positions in order to lower the average entry value. After all, everything should be long-term :)
I still have a bit of cash on the side for the next few days to buy more. If necessary, I'll top up my savings plans for next week instead of buying at the beginning of the month. The MSCI and some EM markets. Folus on the USA and EU is too high for me at the moment.
The shipping industry is a dynamic market characterized by geopolitical tensions, global trade flows and technological innovation. My current portfolio focuses on the tanker sector, which is currently benefiting from high freight rates and attractive dividends. But the future belongs to the dry bulk sector, which is driven by long-term trends such as urbanization and infrastructure projects. This strategy shows how I am gradually rebuilding my portfolio - with a clear focus on when tankers will remain attractive and when the bulk sector will gain in importance.
Exemplary tanker portfolio
The portfolio consists of 9 diversified tanker stocks that deliver high returns:
- Scorpio Tankers ($STNG (-0.41%)): 20 %
- TORM ($TRMD A (-0.6%)): 20 %
- Teekay Tankers ($TNK (+1.04%)): 15 %
- International Seaways ($INSW (+1.14%)): 15 %
- DHT Holdings ($DHT (+2.3%)): 10 %
- Frontline ($FRO (+4.8%)): 10 %
- Euronav ($EURN (-1.37%)): 10 %
- Hafnia ($HAFNI (-0.62%)): 5 %
- Okeanis Eco Tankers ($OET (+2.47%)): 5 %
Why tankers are currently attractive:
- High freight rates: Geopolitical tensions such as sanctions against Russia are driving demand for oil transportation.
- Long routes: Detour via the Cape of Good Hope increase ton-mile demand.
- Attractive dividend yields: Many of these companies pay double-digit dividends.
Time horizon for tanker investments:
According to forecasts, the tanker market will remain stable until the end of 2025 as demand for crude oil transportation grows slightly (+2.5-3.5 %) and fleet capacity increases moderately (+1.2 %) [1][2]. From 2026, however, freight rates could be expected to fall if ships start using shorter routes again and demand for oil decreases due to the energy transition [3][5].
Why the bulk sector will become attractive in the long term:
The dry bulk sector offers sustainable growth through:
- urbanization and infrastructure projects in emerging markets such as China and India.
- Diversity of transported goodsincluding iron ore, coal, grain and bauxite.
- Technological innovationssuch as low-emission ships and digital optimization.
Time horizon for the bulk sector:
The bulk market will go through a slight phase of weakness until the end of 2025 (-1 to -2 % growth in demand) before picking up again from 2026 (+2-3 %) [3][7]. In the long term, annual growth of around 4-6% is forecast, driven by rising demand for raw materials and fleet modernization [4][19].
My strategy: conversion with dividends
Phase 1 (2025-2026): Focus on tanker dividends
The high dividends from my tanker portfolio will be used to gradually build up positions in the bulk sector. Meanwhile, I hold my tanker stocks as they will remain stable until at least the end of 2025.
Phase 2 (from 2026): Expansion of the bulk portfolio
With the expected decline in the attractiveness of the tanker market from 2026, I am planning a gradual shift into the following bulk stocks:
- Star Bulk Carriers ($SBLK (+2.32%)): Market leader with a high dividend yield (~13%) and a diversified fleet.
- Genco Shipping ($GNK (+2.28%)): Solid US company with a focus on low debt and sustainable distributions (~11%).
- Golden Ocean Group ($GOGL (+2.9%)): Specializes in capesize ships with attractive yields (~15%).
- Pacific Basin Shipping ($2343) (+3.53%)Leading in the Handysize segment with stable yields (~6 %).
- Safe Bulkers ($SB (+1.82%)): Focus on energy-efficient ships and grain transportation (~5-6%).
I also add strategic stocks to my portfolio:
- Fortescue Metals Group ($FMG (-1.03%)): Iron ore producer with a high dividend yield (~10%) and a strong focus on green technologies.
- Mitsui & Co Ltd. ($8031 (+2.02%)): Diversified company with interests in the bulk sector and investments in sustainable ship technologies.
Phase 3 (from 2030): Long-term consolidation
By the end of the decade, my portfolio should be fully focused on the growing bulk sector. I will focus on companies that benefit from technological innovations and sustainable practices.
Why this strategy works
1. income generation:
- The high dividends from my tanker stocks finance the build-up of a growth-oriented bulk portfolio.
2. long-term growth potential:
- The bulk sector benefits from global megatrends such as urbanization and infrastructure development.
3. diversification:
- The combination of different shipping segments reduces the risk of market fluctuations.
4. sustainability:
- Investments in companies with a focus on green technologies ensure long-term competitiveness.
Conclusion
With this strategy, I am making the most of the short-term earning power of my tanker portfolio, while at the same time building a future-proof portfolio in the dry bulk sector. The planned time horizon allows me to react flexibly to market developments and maximize both short-term profits and long-term growth.
Through targeted shifts into stocks such as Star Bulk Carriers or Fortescue Metals Group, I am creating a solid basis for sustainable success - in an industry full of opportunities!

Hi everyone, I'm currently looking for high-dividend stocks that I think look undervalued. I would like to introduce you to my favorites and look forward to your additions. Let's get started:
$FMG (-1.03%) - Fortescue Metals Group
Fortescue is one of the world's leading iron ore producers with a dividend yield of 10.7%. The stock currently trades at a favorable P/E of 6.53 and shows upside potential of around 12% based on an intrinsic valuation of AUD 20.45. Despite a share price decline of over 36% last year, FMG remains an attractive candidate for dividend hunters due to its high EBIT margin (46.76%) and solid balance sheet.
$PLSV (-3.04%) - Paratus Energy Services Ltd.
Paratus Energy Services is a specialist in offshore energy infrastructure, particularly in Mexico and Brazil. With a dividend yield of an impressive 21.05% and a forward P/E ratio of just 6.07, the share appears highly undervalued. The current share price is around NOK 44.66, while the fair value is estimated at around NOK 89.49 - an upside potential of over 50%. The high margins (EBIT margin: 46%) and stable cash flows make Paratus an exciting choice.
$KCC (-1.65%) - Klaveness Combination Carriers
KCC is a leading provider of combined cargo ships and offers an exceptional dividend yield of 18.4%. The share is currently trading at a P/E ratio of just 4.19 and is undervalued by around 35% compared to its fair value of around NOK 119. Despite a difficult year (-17.9%), the company impresses with strong net margins (33.29%) and a solid balance sheet.
$BCE (+1.69%) - BCE Inc.
BCE is one of Canada's largest telecommunications companies with a stable dividend yield of just under 12%. After a share price decline of about 14% last year, the stock is considered undervalued (fair value: ~$85). BCE benefits from its market-leading position and continued investment in fiber optic networks, which could support long-term growth.
$NPI (-1.07%) - Northland Power
Northland Power is a global renewable energy provider with a focus on offshore wind power. The share offers a dividend yield of 6.7% and is currently trading well below its fair value (fair value: ~$41). Analysts see upside potential of over 60%, supported by major projects such as Hai Long and Baltic Power.
$UKW (+0.74%) - Greencoat UK Wind
Greencoat UK Wind invests in UK wind farms and offers a stable dividend yield of around 10.5%. The current share price (~126p) is well below the average target price (190p), signaling upside potential of around 50%. Thanks to its inflation-linked dividend policy and solid cash flows, UKW remains an attractive option for long-term investors.
I look forward to your additions or opinions on these stocks!
The Liebherr conglomerate is to supply the Australian mining giant Fortescue with numerous dump trucks, excavators and bulldozers - all with purely electric drives.
For the Liebherr conglomerate, it is the biggest deal in its 75-year history: In the fall, the company's mining division signed a contract with the Australian raw materials group Fortescue for the delivery of 475 new mining machines with a volume of 2.8 billion US dollars (2.5 billion euros).
The core of the order is the delivery of 360 autonomous, battery-powered giant dump trucks; the deal also includes 55 electric excavators and 60 electric dozers - all for use in Fortescue mines in Western Australia.
Emission-free mines by 2030
Fortescue committed to electromobility years ago. The aim is for the mines to be completely emission-free by 2030. To achieve this, the vehicle fleet is now to be significantly expanded. The relevant machines will be supplied by Liebherr after the two companies launched a partnership in March 2023.
Liebherr is planning significant investments to enable the delivery of the 475 electric mining vehicles. The XL-format machines will be produced in Newport in the USA (dump trucks) and in Colmar, France (excavators).
Liebherr was founded in 1949 by Hans Liebherr in Kirchdorf an der Iller (district of Biberach), but now has its headquarters in Bulle, Switzerland. However, important production sites of the globally active group of companies are still located in Baden-Württemberg - including in Biberach, Ehingen and Bad Schussenried.
Fortescue relies on white hydrogen and invests 21.9 million dollars in HyTerra. $FMG (-1.03%)
HyTerra increases Nemaha shareholding after EMG gives green light to Fortescue acquisition.
HyTerra increases Nemaha acreage by >15% to over 60,000 acres
Expanded land holdings will support upcoming significant exploration supported by Fortescue following an EGM
Three additional drill sites have been approved and work will commence at the Blythe 13-10 site.
Special Report: With Fortescue's 39.66% acquisition now complete, HyTerra has demonstrated its confidence in the Nemaha Hydrogen Project by acquiring approximately 8,000 new acres of land.
It adds to the 13,000 acres acquired in mid-October 2024 and brings the total leasehold to over 60,000 acres fully owned.
This significantly larger landholding will support HyTerra Limited's (ASX:HYT) upcoming significant exploration campaign, which is backed by a US$21.9 million investment from Andrew Forrest's Fortescue, now sealed after shareholders gave the green light at an extraordinary general meeting on Friday.
The strategic alliance agreement between the two companies is aimed at advancing the wholly owned project while exploring new opportunities globally. Fortescue's funds are already earmarked for an expanded drilling campaign over the Nemaha Ridge.
$FMG (-1.03%) that worked out well 💵
