Crude oil shipper Euronav (EURN) posted decent results yesterday.
The CEO said the best buy at this moment are their own shares.
The stock did not react positively after the results, though.
Seems a good buy among the shippers.

Though the final quarter of the year is typically the strongest for tanker companies because of seasonal oil demand, the company said returning OPEC barrels, rising U.S. exports and record Chinese imports were other factors driving freight rates.
The company said the average spot rate for VLCC fleet in the Tankers International pool in the fourth quarter was $34,959 per day and it further rose to $41,000 so far in the first quarter of 2019.
