Analysis of: Usual suspects | www.tradewinds.no
Author: Craig Marston, Managing Director, CEM Marine

Tradewinds reported that the list of suitors for the 50.4% stake being offered in Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering (DSME) includes Hyundai Heavy Industry, Posco, the GS Group, and Hanwha Group.  Analysts expect a bidding war to result.  While a great time for sellers to unlock...
