Water Transportation was a very hot industry during the second half of 2007.
DryShips (DRYS) comes in at #2 this week. [REMOVED]
Excel Maritime Carriers Ltd. (EXM) remains in the #3 spot.[REMOVED]. And last week, Jeffries raised price targets dramatically on our top five shipping stocks:
* Note: Quintana Maritime (QMAR) comes in at #4, and Diana Shipping (DSX) is #5 on our list.
In addition, a second Wall Street firm (Cantor Fitzgerald) has also raised its price targets on five major shipping stocks, citing a continuing surge in dry bulk rates.

Mr. Navellier had some WT companies in his $5.000/year Global Growth portfolio. At that time I profited from a fantastic offer from Louis:
2 weeks free: if you are not satisfied you cancel your subscriprion and pay nothing
Exactly what I did. But in the two weeks I was able to read the history of Global Growth Top Three Stocks. These Top Three Stocks were all Marine Transportation companies.
And after that time, some friends forwarded to me the following issues of $5.000/year Global Growth.
As I was saying and as you can see September and October 2007 were great months for Marine Transportation: the whole industry gained 20% in two months.
As a result of such a good situation, Mr. Navellier wrote to his $5.000/year paying subscribers the folllowing words:

TBS International Ltd. (TBSI) is back in the #1 spot. [REMOVED]

Interesting new targets. Remember: it is October 22nd 2007.

Buy below prices were at this point:
DRYS: $113.9
EXM: $63.84
TBSI: $58.54I am sure some people gave Louis $5.000 a year and bought these Top Three Stocks at prices close to the ones you see here above.
Let's see what happened next:
On December 26th 2007 Mr. Navellier told his paying readers to sell EXM. Price was around $41.
On January 14 2008 Mr. Navellier told his paying readers to sell TBSI. Price was around $24.
On July 28 2008 Mr. Navellier told his paying readers to sell DRYS. Price was around $73.
The September/October 2007 Top Three Stocks, if bought at that time at the buy below prices Mr. Navellier accurately calculated had returned:
EXM: -35%
DRYS: -35%
TBSI: -59%
Not bad for the Top 3 (and not bad for $5.000/year)
