The dependent variable is the shipping stock return for each sector: tanker, drybulk, container. The sample is consisted of monthly data and the period 10/2005-09/2016 is examined. The OLS regression is used for analyzing the relationship between dependent and independent variables. The results differ from sector to sector. The market portfolio found to be statistical significant and positively related with the portfolio of tanker, drybulk and container. Oil prices have positive relationship with tanker and drybulk portfolio. The portfolio of tanker is positively affected by the industrial production of G-7 countries and the portfolio of drybulk and container are positively affected by the industrial production of China. The exchange rate variable displays a negative relationship to the drybulk.
