Punished too harshly for dividend suspension.
They have good chartering (esp on their larger ships).
The delay of their 5 new ships shouldn't impact them greatly (they lost no money in fees from the delay)

Great entry point. The shipping of LPG will continue to be necessary regardless of whether a U.S. recession occurs. The recent additional stock offering has been completed and factored into the price of the stock, leaving it somewhat undervalued in my opinion.
As a final plus, the consistent and high dividend only results in a payout ratio of 56%, making it very sustainable and attractive in the surely to be turbulent year ahead.

LNG is strategically important energy. Most of gas comes to Europe from Russia through Ukraine. Ukraine frequently doesn't pay bills to Gazprom that threathens to stop supply that triggers Ukraine to stop transporting gas to Europe. Europe doesn't have many alternatives. There is Nabucco pipeline being built and there are plans for pipeline through Barens sea.
One alternative is LNG. Terminal are being built. LNG may be used to power cars. In Europe LNG is around twice cheaper than petrol (depend on country).
As production of gas is projected to soar by 65% in US next year, it is easy to understand tremendous sell-off for GASS. However, I suspect that demand in Europe will increase substantally.

26 LNG carriers, and debt that isn't completely out of control. The bad current ratio can be forgiven, because it is selling at roughly 1/3 book value.

This is supposedly an undervalued stock, yet the stock has kept losing value for some reason. I can't resist with a pe ratio of 4.41 though. If this keeps sliding, there would be nothing rational about it.

Looks like a safe, reasonable business model to me, they're poised for growth and until that happens you can simply enjoy the 6% divvy.
