Description: GNK Genco Shipping & Trading

Genco Shipping & Trading Limited (NYSE: GNK) is a U.S.-based marine transportation company that owns and operates a fleet of dry bulk vessels transporting commodities such as iron ore, grains, coal, and steel products worldwide. The company reports through two segments-major bulk and minor bulk-and primarily charters its vessels to commodities traders, producers, and government-owned entities. Founded in 2004 and headquartered in New York, Genco has been listed on the NYSE since 2005.

The dry bulk shipping industry is highly cyclical, with vessel earnings closely tied to global commodity demand, charter rates, and fleet capacity. The distinction between major bulk (typically larger Capesize and Panamax vessels hauling iron ore and coal) and minor bulk (smaller vessels carrying grains, steel products, and other cargoes) reflects the segmentation of the global dry bulk trade by vessel size and route.
