Euroseas Ltd. has outperformed the total stock market by 3.8x in the past year. The rerouting effects from the Red Sea are serving as a useful panacea for the industry which otherwise would have been facing pressures on account of an increase in capacity. Capacity pressures will be less pronounced for ESEA, which operates in the feeder and intermediate segment of the market.
