Global Ship Lease: 8%+ Yield, Still Very Undervalued
GSL offers high yield income with $1.8B in contracted revenues and a well-covered dividend yield of 8.42%. GSL's strategic focus on mid-size and smaller container ships, including high-reefer vessels, positions it well in the market. Despite recent price declines, GSL's strong earnings, declining debt leverage, and low valuations make it a speculative Buy.

Global Ship Lease: Common Shares Are Getting More Interesting Than Preferreds
GSL's preferred shares are trading at a pretty substantial premium to their $25 call value. The common shares lost 30% of their value in the past few quarters. Although (container) shipping remains very cyclical, I'm warming up again to the common shares.
