Shopify, Blackstone, and United Parcel Service are the three Shipping stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat's stock screener tool. Shipping stocks are shares of publicly traded companies that operate vessels—such as container ships, bulk carriers and tankers—to transport goods and commodities by sea. Their market performance is closely linked to global trade volumes, freight‐rate fluctuations, fuel costs and broader economic cycles, which often makes them more volatile than other equity sectors. Investors typically watch industry indicators like the Baltic Dry Index to gauge demand and pricing trends in maritime transport. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Shipping stocks within the last several days.
