Massive jump in share price coming.

Reports of vaccine now by government in Jan 2021, will only start with selected BUT private companies will offer to buy.

Saudi's to increase it's holding as it tries to take control

Cruises to start from selected places, ok local areas but it's a start.

Will test £15 in the coming weeks.

1. I expect Trump to make a major announcement on vaccines in the next 7 days or so.
2. Pfizer Phase 3 data is due within the next 14 days also and CEO is very confident of approval.
3. News released today that the NHS is being told to prepare mass vaccination from December.

Vaccine will almost certainly have to be fast tracked as the alternative is far too costly in every way.

Anybody but Thrump

[grahamburn] 08/10/2020 17:56

Don't forget to check out their Business Update today.... surprised no comment yet on it.

Probably seen Trump brush off covid like it's nothing an expecting thing to get back to normal sooner than we think.

[oneilly] 08/10/2020 10:03

Why the rise?

[ccnp] 07/10/2020 15:36

Yeah but it will be like a sunrise once a vacine is available OR Covid proof Trump supporters get fed up and demand their Xth Amendment Right to Roam on a cruise ship be re-instated

Gloom still pervades even at the high end small ships in the Carnival family:

Just as Sunnak will issue Covid Bonds, so larger companies will seek to consolidate the cost once a clear path out of the mess exists. CCL issuing new notes with SH discounts is a likely candidate

[bookbroker] 07/10/2020 09:53

Just my opinion, but CCl is a disaster, poleaxed by coronavirus, BAe. debts basically related to project finance, if you feel debt a problem then don’t bother investing at all. In fact you might as well just call it day full-stop, the world only operates on the basis of debt, otherwise there is little need for finance per se!

[pierre oreilly] 07/10/2020 09:41

BAE - same as ccl, and almost every other company.

Yet your posts just reflect your holdings - same situation, different conclusions. Zero information, 100% ramp or deramp. Oh well, strange way to try to make a buck imv.

[bookbroker] 07/10/2020 09:21

As for the toddlers, CSSG, could be a hidden gem, lots of cash, and security might just become a growth business or a cash cow, one or the other!

[bookbroker] 07/10/2020 09:19

And for a really unloved stock, try CNA., if it gets that cash for Direct Energy then we are in business proper.

[bookbroker] 07/10/2020 09:16

Try DLAR, BAe., TED for a punt, either already raised capital, sound balance sheets and lookin good.

[pierre oreilly] 07/10/2020 09:04

Bookbroker - could you tell us the companies you are invested in which aren;'t effectively bust atm? Every company in hospitality and all companies relying on it like rolls royce and ultimately every uk company are effectively bust.

They will in general be kept alive by the government or, in ccl's case, the saudis who imo want a new industry, until things change, with either a vaccine or a change of stance and letting everyhthing return to normal and build immunity, like we handle every other disease, some of which are more deadlt than covid is these days.

Investors look 2 years ahead.

Over to you, tell us the companies you think are immune from the measures taken to handle covid?

[bookbroker] 07/10/2020 08:57

How is this company going to survive, it is not, for as long Covid 19 exists it is doomed. If, and when is the question, the moment someone goes ill on a cruise down the line the whole ship is going to be impounded. And elderly people, are they likely to take a vaccine when the antibody might overwhelm them? Ships still en masse of the coast of Dorset I believe, counted twelve back in August at any one time, and that is just a small proportion.

Where would i find such intriguing data ? I wish to be illuminated

[buywell3] 25/9/2020 21:44

Shame 50% of people will refuse to use vaccines due to the rush jobs and safety concers re longer term toxicity issues.

Worth checking out computer modeled Covid-19 case projections for July 2021 done by USA UNI's --- very illuminating

[justiceforthemany] 25/9/2020 21:35

Barclays bullish on Cruise stocks.
China and Russia claim to both have viable vaccines and vaccinated the higher risk elements of their population months ago.

CCL shares strong today in NYK

====== Here is a positive post on how humans can co-exist with Covid-19 ======


The EU is in a mess including Germany
As is the UK the USA India South America and Africa plus many other countries


Lockdown measures = tinkering with the problem

Selective measures like 10pm closing of bars/restaurants will not work for boris

Cases will continue to double and he will have to close them eventually even if he lowers closing to 9pm and then 8pm to try to keep the nation in an inebriated state and malleable to his manipulations .

Ultimately the Nurses in the NHS will start to drop from exhaustion ( 40,000 plus vacancies) and sickness and stress.

Then belatedly boris will have to do a National Lockdown which is the only thing that works --- China proved this as did NZ and AUS .

Relaxation of rules = increase of cases
Worldwide cases are still growing at 1M every 3 and 1/3rd days
100M by Jan 1st 2021 looks very likely based upon charts and 500M by end of july 2021 , means strict quarantine.

Politicians are not accepting the fact that this virus is with us for years.

Technology to kill it is the answer using Far-UVC light at 222nm in public places

See buywell last post on BUY thread

Italy has a serious problem with Covid-19 currently, very surprised if this statement in not a little premature!
