Shares of energy companies are trading higher following President Trump's decision to implement a 90-day pause on reciprocal tariffs for all countries except China.

Recent <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/02/43420421/marco-rubios-panama-visit-will-trumps-aggressive-rhetoric-lead-to-war-or-diplomacy">statements</a> by President Donald Trump regarding potential changes in the status of the Panama Canal have raised concerns about possible impacts on various stocks and exchange-traded funds. After all, some 4% of global trade passes through the canal, with more than 70% of that traffic bound for or coming from the U.S., <a href="https://www.wsj.com/world/americas/china-panama-canal-development-what-it-means-7c5dc870">according</a> to the Wall Street Journal.
What Happened: On Sunday, Secretary of State Marco Rubio warned Panama&#8217;s President José Raúl Mulino that Washington will &#8220;take measures necessary&#8221; if Panama does not immediately take steps to put an end to what Trump&nbsp;considers China&#8217;s influence and control over the Panama Canal.
Following the talks with Rubio, who is on a tour of Central America, Mulino signaled he would review agreements involving China and Chinese businesses. Since Trump took office, he has reiterated his <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42639737/trumps-call-to-reclaim-panama-canal-sparks-backlash-every-square-meter-belongs-to-panama-says-president-mulino" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">threat to forcibly retake the Panama Canal</a>, which generates some $2.5 billion in annual revenue for Panama.
As a critical conduit for international maritime trade, any changes to its operations could naturally affect companies involved in shipping, logistics and transportation.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Which Companies Might Be Affected? Quite A Few</h1>
Let's start with the shipping-owning company SFL Corporation Ltd. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SFL#NYSE">SFL</a>), which is engaged in the ownership and operation of vessels and offshore-related assets. There are two others that could see changes: Costamare Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CMRE#NYSE">CMRE</a>), which owns and charters container ships, and Navios Maritime Holdings (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NMPGY#NYSE">NMPGY</a>), an international owner and operator of dry cargo vessels.
Next, we have the railway companies that provide freight services across the U.S. These include CSX Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CSX#NASDAQ">CSX</a>), Norfolk Southern Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NSC#NYSE">NSC</a>), Union Pacific Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UNP#NYSE">UNP</a>), Canadian Pacific Kansas City Ltd (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CP#NYSE">CP</a>) and the Canadian National Railway Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CNI#NYSE">CNI</a>).
Now let's look at the ETFs that focus on all of the above — shipping, air freight and the courier industries.
U.S. Global Sea to Sky Cargo (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SEA#NYSE">SEA</a>), Breakwave Dry Bulk Shipping (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BDRY#NYSE">BDRY</a>) provides exposure to the daily change in the price of dry bulk freight futures and SPRD S&amp;P Transportation ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XTN#NYSE">XTN</a>), which represents the transportation segment of the S&amp;P Total Market Index ("S&amp;P TMI") designed to&nbsp;track the broad U.S. equity market.

Shares of SFL Corporation Ltd. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SFL#NYSE">SFL</a>) were crushed yesterday. The Hamilton, Bermuda-based company announced that it was offering $100 million of new shares. 
Some investors are concerned that this would dilute the value of their holdings so they sold aggressively.
But the stock could be about to bounce back. There may have been a capitulation. They also have dropped to a price level that had previously been support. This is why our team of trading experts made it our ‘<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/stock-of-the-day">Stock of the Day</a>'.
A capitulation occurs when sellers throw in the towel and give up. They become sick and tired of watching their stocks move lower. Finally, they decide to sell their shares regardless of the price. As a result, huge amounts of volume trade.
And this could be bullish for the stock.
After a capitulation, some traders and investors may decide that the move lower was an overreaction, so they enter the market as buyers. But they have a hard time finding someone to buy shares from. The sellers have been cleaned out.
So, these buyers will have no choice but to increase the prices they are willing to pay to draw sellers back into the market. This could force the price higher.
As you can see on the chart, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/SFL/short-interest">SFL</a> found support at the $11.60 level. This could also be a bullish dynamic.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="624" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/25113334/1-27-1024x624.png" alt="SFL Corporation" class="wp-image-457299" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/25113334/1-27-1024x624.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/25113334/1-27-300x183.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/25113334/1-27-768x468.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/25113334/1-27.png 1041w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>

Support is a large group of traders and investors who are looking to buy shares at, or close to, the same price. In this case it's $11.60.
Sometimes stocks rally after they drop to support. This happens when some of the potential buyers become concerned that they are going to miss the opportunity to acquire shares.
They know that the sellers will go to whichever buyer is willing to pay the highest price. As a result, they increase their bid price. For example, instead of paying $11.60, they may increase their bid to $11.70.
Other concerned buyers may see this and decide to increase their bids as well. This could result in a snowball effect which pushes <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/SFL">SFL</a> higher.
Finding support after a capitulation can be a bullish setup for a stock. There is a good chance SFL recovers and a new uptrend forms.
