likely to be persistent. We have increased short-term charter risk and costs to 2025 to maintain our transportation capacity. We continue to monitor the implementation of the USTR port charges, which are likely to lead to additional cost pressure in the coming months if implemented as planned.

Analysts point to stagnating export figures from key automotive locations such as Germany, Japan and South Korea. The weakness could prove to be more persistent than initially assumed.
From October 14, new port fees in the USA are looming, which could burden all car transporters. These fees, proposed by the US trade representative, would further exacerbate the already tight earnings situation

@Eurosammler For me it was an opportunity to add a little more...I'm still well below the EK.

Time to dip?
Or will the price continue to fall?
A strong correction can currently be seen at $HAUTO.

@BasstiDD Everything can be done, nothing has to be done, but I remain convinced in the long term, even if some developments will continue to be observed in the short term.

@SAUgut777 I also have a long-term investment horizon at $HAUTO and save with savings plans and reinvest 100% of the dividends.
I always consider buying back in the event of such corrections.
My total return is still positive on this share, even with this price slump.
