Description: GNK Genco Shipping & Trading December 26, 2025
Genco Shipping & Trading Ltd (NYSE:GNK) is a U.S.-based ocean carrier that owns and operates a fleet of dry-bulk vessels, moving commodities such as iron ore, grains, coal, and steel products for commodity traders, producers and state-owned entities worldwide. The firm, incorporated in 2004 and headquartered in New York, generates revenue primarily through time-charter and voyage-charter agreements.
Key operational metrics as of the latest filing show a fleet of roughly 30 vessels with an aggregate deadweight tonnage (DWT) near 8 million tonnes and an average utilization rate of ~85 % in 2023, reflecting strong demand for bulk freight. The companys earnings are highly sensitive to the Baltic Dry Index (BDI) and to macro-drivers such as Chinese steel production (which accounts for ~60 % of global iron-ore demand) and seasonal grain export flows from the United States and Brazil. Recent spot freight rates for 62-day Capesize contracts have hovered around $12,000–$13,000 per day, providing a benchmark for GNK’s revenue potential.
