This may be our first time going to Greece (virtually of course :-)). The transportation company Danaos has their HQ there.

This company has been around for about 50 years. Y'all know I have an appreciation for older companies. For an investor who likes AI and 5G, they balance my portfolio very well.

I'm not as bullish right now on global transportation companies as I am on banks and insurance companies, but I'm definitely more bullish on these companies than usual. I'm not ready to go HAM on global shipping yet, but there are definitely some companies that have some things figured out.

As you may suspect, I'm thinking about the supply chain. And whether it's Matson (MATX) in Hawaii or this one, I'm looking for good ideas and operational excellence.

Will put this on a watchlist and do some research.
