&#8220;With the looming strikes at Canadian railways and U.S. ports, we may see an immediate uptick in freight rates as market participants brace for significant disruptions,&#8221; said Christian Roeloffs, CEO of German online container marketplace Container xChange.

&#8220;The possibility of simultaneous strikes at U.S. ports and Canadian railways present a perfect storm for North American trade.&#8221;
Canadian&nbsp;National&nbsp;Railway and&nbsp;Canadian&nbsp;Pacific Kansas City plan to lock out thousands of rail workers on Thursday if they cannot reach labor agreements with the Teamsters Canada Rail Conference, Reuters reported.
The Teamsters issued a 72-hour strike notice on Sunday to CPKC ahead of the company's lockout notice.
Meanwhile, the International Longshoreman Association, which represents 45,000 dockworkers at three dozen U.S. ports, plans to go on strike on Oct. 1 if it does not sign a new labor contract with the U.S. Maritime Alliance by that date.

Strikes At US Ports, Canada's Railways May Cause Container Freight Rate Volatility

Transatlantic container shipping volumes into the U.S. are <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/08/40439449/why-is-israel-based-cargo-shipping-company-zim-integrated-stock-surging-today">making a comeback </a>as U.S. retailers look to replenish inventories ahead of possible strike action at U.S. ports.
&#8220;There is some temptation by customers to bring in goods ahead of the labor contract expiry on Sept. 30,&#8221; Hapag-Lloyd CEO Rolf Habben Jansen said in an online news briefing, Reuters reported.
Hapag-Lloyd is the world&#8217;s fifth-largest container liner.
Freight sector analysts are closely following contract talks between cargo worker unions and port managers in case the September deadline is missed and a strike becomes imminent.
Retailers have also put in their orders sooner as they expect their goods to take longer trips around Africa to avoid Houthi-led attacks in the Red Sea, Hansen said.

This jump in ordering by U.S. retailers can be good news for several other liner operators that ship goods across the Atlantic basin to the U.S., such as Euroseas Ltd. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ESEA#NASDAQ">ESEA</a>), Global Ship Lease Inc.

This good news for container shipping comes as ZIM Integrated Shipping Services Ltd. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ZIM#NYSE">ZIM</a>) posted very strong second-quarter earnings on Monday by capitalizing on transpacific trade into the U.S.
The company&#8217;s average freight rate for a 20-foot container came in at $1,674 for the second quarter, up from $1,193 for the same period last year. ZIM carried 952,000 20-foot containers in the quarter, up from 860,000 such containers a year ago.
ZIM posted earnings per share of $3.08 for the quarter, blowing away analyst EPS consensus of $1.79. Second-quarter revenue totaled $1.933 billion, up from $1.31 billion a year earlier.

Transatlantic Container Shipping Volumes Rise As Possible Strike At U.S. Ports Hovers

When it comes to short-term investing or trading, they say &quot;the trend is your friend.&quot; And there&#39;s no denying that this is the most profitable strategy. But making sure of the sustainability of a trend to profit from it is easier said than done.
Often, the direction of a stock&#39;s price movement reverses quickly after taking a position in it, making investors incur a short-term capital loss. So, it&#39;s important to ensure that there are enough factors -- such as sound fundamentals, positive earnings estimate revisions, etc. -- that could keep the momentum in the stock going.
Our &quot;Recent Price Strength&quot; screen, which is created on a unique short-term trading strategy, could be pretty useful in this regard. This predefined screen makes it really easy to shortlist the stocks that have enough fundamental strength to maintain their recent uptrend. Also, the screen passes only the stocks that are trading in the upper portion of their 52-week high-low range, which is usually an indicator of bullishness.
<h2>Euroseas Ltd.</h2>
Euroseas (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/esea#NASDAQ">ESEA</a>) is one of the several suitable candidates that passed through the screen. Here are the key reasons why it could be a profitable bet for &quot;trend&quot; investors.
A solid price increase over a period of 12 weeks reflects investors&#39; continued willingness to pay more for the potential upside in a stock. ESEA is quite a good fit in this regard, gaining 8% over this period.
However, it&#39;s not enough to look at the price change for around three months, as it doesn&#39;t reflect any trend reversal that might have happened in a shorter time frame. It&#39;s important for a potential winner to maintain the price trend. A price increase of 6.5% over the past four weeks ensures that the trend is still in place for the stock of this company.
Moreover, ESEA is currently trading at 96.2% of its 52-week High-Low Range, hinting that it can be on the verge of a breakout.
Looking at the fundamentals, the stock currently carries a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), which means it is in the top 5% of more than the 4,000 stocks that we rank based on trends in earnings estimate revisions and EPS surprises -- the key factors that impact a stock&#39;s near-term price movements.
The Zacks Rank stock-rating system, which uses four factors related to earnings estimates to classify stocks into five groups, ranging from Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) to Zacks Rank #5 (Strong Sell), has an impressive externally-audited track record, with Zacks Rank #1 stocks generating an average annual return of +25% since 1988.
Another factor that confirms the company&#39;s fundamental strength is its Average Broker Recommendation of #1 (Strong Buy). This indicates that the brokerage community is highly optimistic about the stock&#39;s near-term price performance.
So, the price trend in ESEA may not reverse anytime soon.
