On CAPS, 95.2% of the 291 members who have rated DHT believe the stock will outperform the S&P 500 going forward. These bulls include CAPS All-Stars DSmod and TSIF, both of whom are ranked in the top 20% of our community.
Less than two months ago, DSmod tapped DHT as a stock severely priced for imperfection: "I believe that the negatives (oversupply, dividend cancellation, recent poor earnings) -- while very real, are more than adequately priced in. Could take some time to see income improvements, but I'm not waiting around any longer as the stock price will likely move first."
In a pitch from this past Monday, TSIF expanded on the tanker's tanking stock. Here's an excerpt:
DHT is one of the few shippers who has given back everything from its rebound off the bottom earlier in the year and has been setting NEW 52 week lows. ... P/B is sub-1 and although recent quarters show a continuous decline in earnings and profit is now very small, it does have positive margins and good cash flow. Cutting the dividend completely pulled the plug the rest of the way out of its stock price as impatient investors decided the risk/reward had slide out of balance. Overall, I like its cash balance, positive, (though small earnings), and upward potential if the market improves.
