I found Danaos using a low PEG screen that has outperformed the S&P 500 by 15% per year since January 2001. Danaos is yet another shipper trading well below book value. The company has a lot of debt but I believe it is likely to survive the current recession. As long as this company survives, its stock price is likely to triple.
