We strongly recommend looking at container port terminal companies with monopoly/ duopoly, or oligopoly dynamics, as pricing power appears strong there. 
After their 30% tariff hike, Westports Holdings (WPRTS MK) reported a strong Q3, and ICTSI (ICT PM), following tariff hikes across most of its ports, also reported 25% earnings growth. 
We like Asian Terminals (ATI PM) for its cheap valuation/duopoly and ICTSI (ICT PM) for its strategy of acquiring terminals with a monopolistic presence.
