NEW YORK, January 11, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --
Today, Stock-Callers.com has issued research reports on: DryShips Inc. (NASDAQ: DRYS), Nordic American Tankers Ltd (NYSE:
NAT), Teekay Tankers Ltd (NYSE: TNK), and Golar LNG Ltd (NASDAQ: GLNG). According to the Baltic and International Maritime
Council, the world is unlikely to grow its GDP in 2017 in a way that would benefit the Shipping industry, noting that the global
GDP growth is driven by service sectors and developing and emerging economies, resulting in a lower GDP-to-trade multiplier, and
therefore generating a lower level of shipping demand. Learn more about these stocks by accessing their free research
