Cosco’s VLCC order just the tip of the iceberg
Dalian: The initial batch of 10 VLCCs that Cosco Dalian is negotiating is part of a 30 VLCC order, which in turn is part of a VLCC pool being planned among China’s leading state-owned shipping lines, SinoShip News can confirm. This news portal first reported the news one month ago today.
“In reality this is such a big project, all together 70-80 ships planned,” a well-placed source stressed involving Cosco, China Merchants and Nanjing Tanker.
The cash allocation for this spending is in the latest five-year plan so the orders need to be done before 2015. The dipping market has made negotiations slower than anticipated but further orders are expected to be placed in the coming six months.
“Currently we are still probing into the possibilities, nothing has been confirmed yet,” an official from Cosco’s tanker division in Dalian told SinoShip News, “and we are negotiating with many different yards in China, not only the three yards mentioned before. Also we are negotiating with some companies for potential charters,” the official added.
“We had a preliminary contact with Cosco Dalian, it still needs further negotiation,” an official at Unipec, who is close to the matter, said to Sinoship News.
Currently Cosco Dalian has 18 oil tankers and six of them are VLCCs.  [21/09/12]
Many traders are betting that the Chinese demand for iron ore and steel could pick up later in the year. Stats from China showed that iron ore prices rebounded from their lowest level in three years, after the Chinese government approved more than $150 billion for infrastructural development in the second-largest economy of the world. The rise in steel and iron prices was also depicted by the sharp surge of 9% in the Baltic Dry Index (BDIY) in the last two days. BDIY is composed of weighted averages of indices of Capesize, Panamax, Handysize and Supramax. This of course is further dependant on the prices and demand of commodities. More the demand for commodities, the higher their prices will be and more demand will lead to a rise in charter rates for vessels, thus leading to a rise in BDIY.
when a stocks goes sideway for too long. it will either move up or move down heavily upon breakout. so i think it will be a good risk to reward ratio trades. vested in cosco 1 week ago at the bottom of the range. possible accumulation detected.
With BDI starts picking up, this counter will be up like crazy. Many analysts have been asked to downgrad this counter because BBs want to be accummulated shares at low price.
BBs are picking up this counter as governments are supporting shipping industry.
Dalian Ocean Shipping Company (COSCO DALIAN) is wholly owned subsidiary of China Ocean Shipping Company (Cosco Group). != COSCO (Dalian) Shipyard Co.

Target S$0.85 (Long Term: Under Perform)
We are cautious over Cosco's US$170m rig contract from UK shipping conglomerate Foresight Group as margins could be compromised to fill its idle shipbuilding yard capacity. Margin inconsistencies and execution hiccups could continue to plague this Chinese yard. Maintain Underperform and target price, based on trough P/BV of 1.4x. No changes to our EPS. The latest win brings YTD orders to about US$1.2bn, still within our full-year target of US$2bn. We would stick to Singapore rig builders for 1) stronger order book, 2) proven track record, and 3) more attractive valuations.
they wont tell the actual reasons one.   Indices r conveniently used by ppl to roughly gauge the economy health of a country so probably our garment doesnt find cosco fit to perform this task anymore so get rid of it.   if goldenagri n nol still dont perform then they may be kick out too.
