Pertinent would have worked there too, but as a shareholder of 4,000 shares who only bought 1,200 of them below the current price, seeing the recent financial statements evokes a deep sense of sadness and regret. 😉 Ok, I understand. We only have 100 shares bought at a price point in the low 30s, so we are not up to poignant. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the market would go down afterwards, but I was wrong. It went up. I guess the big fall a couple of days ago accounted for the hike. The feds says to anticipate another one. Expect another 3/4 in September. Some think the market already has priced in a recession which the Feds would like to avoid. Inflation will go down when the price of oil does. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they are trying for just under 4%. They will be lucky if that works in light of our current energy policy. Interest rate and monetary policy can only do so much.

My stock strategy in the past always seems to be buy high and sell low (which explains why I don't trade much for "fun"). With these though, I'm riding the rough seas, and going down with the ship if it comes to that, lol. Tom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Tippyton Posted June 16, 2022 #83 Share Posted June 16, 2022 Pent up demand is the only tail wind the cruise lines have going for them. Fuel prices, Covid shenanigans, crew issues, supply issues, inflation in general are some of the headwinds. Decreases in disposable income directly counter the pent-up demand. A lot of folks are having to make hard choices right now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some seem to take issue with Carnival trying to mitigate those factors and more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have not received the Stock Option OBC $100.00 for a 7 days cruise, for my past 3 cruises due to the deeply discounted rate. In the past, I was still given the OBC, not any longer. Cheers!! PG I sent my request in back in April for cruises in September, Jan 2023 and April 2023. The Jan and April cruises were booked during the half off sale for the 50th anniversary. I received the benefit for all three cruises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They almost were banned from sailing from the US pre-COVID because of violating a Federal Court order relating to environmental issues. Little regulations and Court cases can basically add insult to injury. Edited June 16, 2022 by MrMarc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We already know the rumor mills are flying about selling off Seabourn to the Saudi Sovereignty. Maybe sell off Costa? Who knows, but this move is odd to me. The Carnival Luminesa will have a Polar Ice Cert, so that is worth something. But still very odd. https://www.cruiseindustrynews.com/cruise-news/27685-costa-luminosa-to-transfer-to-carnival-cruise-line.html I agree with you on the selloff of Costa. Its like when you sell your home, but can't part with that painting over your sofa. Remove it before the new buyers see it. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oakman58 Posted June 17, 2022 #99 Share Posted June 17, 2022 (edited) With Carnival stock below $10 a share everyone that cruises once a year with one of their brands should buy the stock. The stock will open this morning below $9.00 a share so buying 100 shares is a no brainer. If you buy at that price, every time you get the OBC it’s as good as an 11% dividend. If Carnival were to go belly-up then you lose very little money. Only invest money you can afford to lose.
