Shorting scumbags !

It's going to do a RCL at some point but l agree it's a traders chip right now.

Need to breakout of 1380 to move to the next phase of recovery,

[jan-mar] 25/7/2024 16:02

It is the same price as it was in early 2022, it's been a traders share and still is

[smurfy2001] 25/7/2024 15:55

I think CCL will finally make some inroads next quarter. It's gone nowhere this year.

[jan-mar] 25/7/2024 15:42

If you time it right and catch the bottom before the move up for 3rd quarter results you'll make some money

[jan-mar] 25/7/2024 15:40

Thus will knock a few long traders out

tiobs, It's incredible the price rises recently. Even the cheapo msc have gone as expensive as the rest - used to be able to rely on those for a 60 quid per day balcony, not any more.

I really thought if labour got in cruises would be toast - seems the opposite is happening. Everyone's spending cash while they've got some!

All change for shareholder obc, just as someone else said last week. Just applied for my obc, and you need to download Stockperks app, register, and apply throught that. It's on line to many brokers (so it says), so they get proof of holding. Except my broker idealing isn't recognised. So the altenative is to download proof somehow - photos of statements etc, including your name. Idealing doesn't have a page with both name and holding on, so I've sunbmitted a couple of photos which I hope is proof enough. Should find out within 2 weeks.

Pierre, you are right, cruise prices have been all over the place for the past three months.

We've re-visited a couple of itineraries recently that we fancy for September. They appear to have gone up by about £300-£500 person, that's P&O and Marella!

[pierre oreilly] 25/7/2024 15:24

Same for me, not sure what's happening but a 1k topup at 12.27

[tlobs2] 25/7/2024 15:17

Go on then I'll have another go at 1225p;-)

Having been watching cruise prices closely this last 3 weeks, I can confirm they have just taken a step up. We just booked 14nights on brittania for 1350 quid, was 1049two weeks ago. I wouldn't have booked it but the Mrs really wanted to go, and I like the fact it goes through the keil canal. All prices are up lots, and not much availability. Our QA cruise is now a grand more than we paid a few months ago.

CCL are raking it in. If their ships are at anything greater than 90% capacity at a 50% price increase then we can look forward to mega profits, and hopefully a return to divis, pretty soon.

CCL are ordering several new ships for their various brands generally bigger and 'greener'. They need to get some orders in for hybrid ships, so they can go all electric in places like the fjords where those regs are coming in.

J.P. Morgan analyst Matthew Boss maintains $Carnival (CCL.US)$ with a buy rating, and adjusts the target price from $23 to $25.

[tlobs2] 23/7/2024 16:05

CCL is a great share to trade with some to hold (for the perks) :-)

Carnival Corp Is Gushing Cash Flow, Making It a 2-Bagger From Here

[pierre oreilly] 23/7/2024 12:08

basically, with 100 ccl shares you get 150 quid (p&o and other uk based) or 250 dollars (cunard and us based) for a 14 nighter or greater. You need to jump through afew hoops. I copy and paste exactly what they state they need, and type in my info and email it to them. There are time liits now too - i think its no more than 3 months before and no later than 3 weeks before sailing date, but check. Usually, you can't check whether they have applied the obc and have to wait till you're on board to check your account.
