ZIM paid a $6.40 dividend per share in April and is posting a loss today, so no dividend. The stock price has fallen down into the $14 range. It's down from a peak of $84 last year.

Shipping volume and prices have declined.

Looks like a tempting longish term bet.

Right now it's getting slammed by cyclical head winds, lower shipping prices and the prospect of recession to compound it. Have a position at $17 and another at $22. I'll hold those bags. Alpha ranks it at A+ in valuation, but the profit thing has gone the other way.

It was a great dividend play but I expect a rough couple years ahead.

Plan to revisit end of this year

Be glad you didnt enter at around 50 or higher . Imagine those poor bag holders. Now they dont even have a dividend to fall back on. Twenty five or lower you still have a chance to break even anyone around 50 or higher will be going down with the ship.

Container shipping is always boom or bust. Business picks up and they all go crazy building ships and when the economy inevitably slows they are all way underutilized.

Fortunately, it makes me nervous when I see a chart that's at a high. I thought it was golden at $17, but given the history, I think it will eventually work out nicely. I'd be buying at $14 today, but no dry powder.

Since IPO, the stock chart looks like a picture perfect mountain. Straight up for one year, straight down for one year. Basically almost back at IPO price.
