Hot Shipping Stocks For 2014

Fundamentals have been against the Amazon (AMZN) stock for over a decade. But the stock continues to outperform. 5 years ago it was a 75$ stock. Now it is a 375$ stock. Amazon has been an excellent story for all its investors but what remains to be seen is whether it can continue to be one.

Prime Is Now Dearer

Amazon has recently announced that its Prime Service would now cost $99 instead of $79, a clear $20 increase from the old price. Amazon Prime offers users free shipping, access to Amazon�� video offerings, free Kindle book rentals and a host of other services. The separate Amazon Fresh service that delivers groceries will still cost $299 a year.

While there have been a lot of talks stating that Amazon will lose customers due to this price hike, it is interesting to see that the stock has hardly been impacted after the news was announced. Besides, it should be good news for investors that the company is finally thinking of Profit-Margins and monetizing good products.

Distributors, electronic manufacturing service (EMS) companies and original equipment manufacturers (OEM) are going to increase orders as the economy improves in the future. With this promising outlook, let's take a look at Gabelli麓s last trade and try to explain to investors the reasons of this appealing investment opportunity.
