Why consensus could be wrong
The Street may underestimate DHT's ability to capitalize on rising oil demand, especially given recent trends in global energy consumption.
Supporting evidence
DHT has consistently beaten EPS expectations in the past, indicating potential for strong performance.
The options market is pricing a significant move, suggesting traders are anticipating volatility that may not align with consensus views.
Key risk

Pre-commit to what would confirm each case.
This quarter's performance is under scrutiny due to fluctuating oil prices and potential impacts on storage demand.
Bull confirmed if
An EPS of $1.10 or higher would confirm the bull case, indicating strong operational performance.
Bear confirmed if
