Must of been such poor timing to be down on CCL calls
Any chance the rate cut pump could save my January CCL calls
NCLH has paid me handsomly. Before this recent selloff. Been out of it since. If it touches around about 20, it would be a decent buying opportunity. Assuming that support region doesn't tank. And remember, whatever RCL does, CCL and NCLH tend to follow.
SCHD is likely to hold up better than the market if it tanks because I think that it has a 10% exposure to tech versus 35% in the S&P 500. I highly doubt that you can put on a 2 year collar at 90%/130% with a net cost of less than 1%. Apart from the width disparity, dividends increase the cost of puts relative to calls. Having retired young, my goal is different than most here. After years of aggressive growth, my focus changed to keeping my money and having some potential for growth. rather than full exposure to growth. That's means hedging. My game is keeping my nest egg so I'm willing to leave both tails to others. They can have the big gains and the big losses. I'll accept more modest gains with no killer losses (see 1987, 200, 2008, 2020). Every few years after large market increases (or when there's adverse market news), I buy IWM or SPY put LEAP spreads 10% OTM and 10% wide with a cost of about 1.5% of the proceeds being hedged. Because I'm comfortable shorting equities, 10% OTM gives me modest protection and between the two, I can offset a decent amount of portfolio loss. With a normal cooperative market during the year, I cover and re-sell the short puts and/or roll the long leg down, lowering the cost of the position of to a net outlay of half a percent or better. If the market is higher after 6-9 months or time decay has eroded the short puts, I close them, ending up with long protective puts which then provide full protection below their strike price. How effective they are depends on the index's current price. If the long puts have any decent salvage value, sometimes I roll them out to the next hedge to avoid the increased theta decay during the last few months before expiration. In 2020, I had a lot of leftover long March SPY puts worth 15 cents two weeks before expiration. When the market tanked due to Covid, I rolled, selling them for $15 to $21. I rolled them down 2-3 more times that month. Between these leftover puts and individual position hedges, I was down less than 10% when the market dropped 35%. Reasonably easy to recover from. And this was despite owning several 1,000 share positions in large caps that lost more than 50% during the drop (CCL, DOW). This year, the tariff talk troubled me. In early February, I bought Sep '25 and Jan '26 IWM $210 puts outright and I rolled them down 3 times to $175, putting a nice gain in my pocket. The Jan $175-s are highly likely to expire worthless but I booked a nice gain from the process. Personally, I wouldn't do a 2+ year collar. Yes, the cost per day is less than 1+ years but if the market rises, they become ineffective. Let's assume (a guess) that a 2027 10%/30% is 2/3 the cost of 2028. If the market drops, your collar does what it's supposed to do. If VTI rises nicely, you can deploy that 1/3 cost savings into a collar at higher strikes, establishing more effective protection. Another advantage of the 1= year collar is that later in the cycle, it will be easier to roll the short call up and out for a credit, avoiding assignment and a taxable event. A 2+ year collar will retain much more time value and rolling will be more costly. If you don't understand some of this, ask for clarification.

$CCL is FINALLY breaking out of the undeserved downtrend and flying up (I’ve said this several times over the past couple weeks but this time it’s real trust)
CCL @ 5.7%, and still happy with it.
Ah yes, the classic “it’ll expire worthless, what could possibly go wrong?” strategy. CCL saw your confidence and said “hold my beer.” I usually take the boring route and close around 50% profit before the market decides to humble me again. Expiration Fridays love drama.
Carnival Cruises $CCL iykyk. Fucking hate that thing
My CCL NCLH leaps are coming back to life
When I see an undervalued stock with high IV I just sell puts and roll them every week or two. For example, I had similar views on $CCL a few years ago and $INTC last year. Selling naked puts gives you leverage while collecting premium. And if you give yourself enough buffer (strike and/or free cash) you can easily survive short-term drops. But this is also predicated on your long-term conviction that the stock will ultimately recover. You also need to have a good feel for the right market price as you don't want to roll up and get whipsawed into a loss.
Your CCL call option worked out to +200% gain. Thank you. What guidance do you have if someone wants to learn how to evaluate stocks like you did for weekly expirations?
$CCL is finally reacting to the super bullish earnings report it seems
$CCL going up while the market is down, and going up 2 days in a row? Could be the reversal this thing needs
Trying to trade $CCL makes me want to rip my arms off why tf is this stock so regarded
Panic sold NVDA when it dropped in 2022. If I held onto the $20k I had when I sold it I would have been up $300k by now. In 2020 I originally bought RCL then I sold it and switched to CCL big mistake.
Thank you for your insights on this. From a consumer standpoint both companies offer similar but different experiences even though they operate similar ports and excursions. They definitely feel different when on board. Reviewing the numbers: By all indications (other than top line) RCL appears to be a better run company - if you see something different I am all ears. Top line revenue is a growth metric but it looks at a point in time, given that CCL is larger than RCL it’s not a surprise they have a higher revenue reported. In my thesis I look at change in revenue over the past 5 years RCL crushes CCL. 50% growth in revenue ($10.95B in 2019 vs $16.48B in 2024). CCL has around 20% growth, still respectable ($20B in 2019 vs $25.02B in 2024). In 2019 total cruise revenue was $53.3B over industry. This means at the time, CCL owned about 40% of the market. With RCL, they owned a combined 60% of the market. Fast forward to 2024 and the combined revenues of CCL and RCL are 41.5B vs $55.66B (total cruise revenue was virtually stagnate over the 5 years due to COVID travel), yet CCL was only able to grow revenues from $20B to $25B and control 44.9% of market - whereas RCL has increased revenues to $16.48B and improved their market share to 29.6% of market. Still less than CCL but based on their growth and projected growth they will eclipse CCL as top Cruise line in near future, and likely be able to do it with less passengers which creates higher demand and pricing ability and better overall efficiency. Further, as I noted CF, FCF, levered FCF, etc are all better for RCL - which adds to their attractiveness as an investment, despite the debt loads of both companies. Now, the risk is definitely in play because CCL could acquire an additional cruise line and bolster their financials. Especially with their focus on debt repayment. Also as I note above RCL is still a smaller line than CCL (about 70%) of the size. If current metrics are maintained for both companies my guess is RCL will be top cruise line on all valuation metrics sometime in early 2030s. CCLs moat is being chipped away at by RCL and smaller cruise lines. Their stock price, even with the higher valuation on a P/E basis is poised to continue to go higher. I do think both companies will see decent returns, you won’t go wrong with CCL, but overall I think opportunity is higher with RCL. Even during COVID this was true, and coming out of COVID CCL is still lagging RCL at the stock market level.
$CCL looking to break out?
It really depends what you want in a cruise. CCL offers the majority of their cruises off US ports based on what I can find available. CCL offers shorter cruises that target a younger audience. CCL cruises tend to be a cheaper option. CCL ships are smaller. CCL ships are older. I did not intend to show bias. CCL is a great option. I still think CCL from a brand standpoint is more in line with Pepsi. CCL is a widely-known brand, widely-accessible for everyone-type product. RCL is like coke, it’s a more polished, luxurious type product. Nothing wrong with either brand. With that said, RCL and CCL are in the same class, I just feel RCL is a peg or two ahead right now due to their current positioning. Even on valuation basis the higher premium is evident of that in the RCL stock. It doesn’t CCL can’t change that because they probably can, and will likely do so. But at this time it’s RCL for me. Despite higher revenues, net income was higher for RCL as well as FCF. Which indicates thinner margins for CCL.
157 days later. I will kindly disagree with you. RCL targets the family fun entertainment with late night options. CCL targets a younger crowd with a more party atmosphere. With that said, because of their demographic targets, CCL tends to offer shorter cruise options and for now smaller ships to cater to this younger crowd and also target mostly US based destinations. RCL is building a global based business with many cruises throughout the world. They have a mix of shorter and medium term cruises to cater to a wider audience. Their state rooms and ship sizes offer a massive range of clientele. Also note that RCL is also offering in the next several years exclusive destination/Resorts such as private resorts and new stops only accessible by RCL and brand family cruises. It will be years before CCL or NCL catch up. With that said, CCL does handle the higher volume of people, but in my opinion RCL offers better quality. MSC and NCL are also upping their game but tend to have smaller ships and more diverse port access. In comparing to other industries I’d liken RCL to Apple whereas CCL is Samsung. RCL is like Coke and CCL is Pepsi. RCL is DAL and CCL is like AAL. While each line has its loyal cruisers I think far and away RCL is better than CCL. This is evidenced today in their respective stock prices, so investors have the same sentiment. New large ships from RCL through at least 2036 plus new private destinations for RCL are the difference for me.
My plan was to have $CCL calls for earnings, sell for good profit after the best, then transition to $UUUU calls. Now of course $CCL is still being pinned down by MMs burning calls and $UUUU is flying without me
$CCL calls are hella cheap rn compared to where the price should be
$CCL looking like it might finally break resistance after being held down post record-breaking earnings
So MU beats earnings and my calls get fucked because it drops for several days. CCL beats earnings and tanks and stays down for several days and my calls are down significantly. TLRY beats earnings and they’re up 17% pre market. Wtf man
$CCL just broke the resistance that’s held it down for days
lessgo CCL of all things
NCL is a quarter of the size of CCL. I don't foresee them being able to build $30B worth of boats within the next 4 years.
Is It Time to Buy Calls on $CCL? CCL had strong earnings — record revenue, solid bookings, raised guidance — but the stock keeps dipping. Feels like profit-taking more than bad news. I think there’s solid support around $28–28.5. Might be a rebound setup — or just another fakeout. What do you think?
I bought CCL at $17 but only a 20 shares. Wish I would have put more into it. Still holding.
CCL is one of those plays that will guarantee gains, you just have to wait. Before 2020 they were at $50 I believe they can reach that value back. They always beat earnings, but somehow they always end up going flat or negative in the short term.
*CCL to the moon or to the Mariana Trench, no in-between.*
Great q. Covid was the obvious threat to these companies. RCL is far beyond recovery, is CCL that far behind? Methinks not
CCL is the largest holding in my portfolio. RCL was the real winner, +400% for me, ~1000% bottom to top, but CCL is next in my books. NCLH has not pulled out of the COVID debt pile like these companies have. Bonus tip - you get onboard credits for owning a certain amount of shares. Stroking it to CCL tonight.
I’d say delta vacation in general has been falling , CCL posted good earnings and dipped, Vale had crappy earnings and dipped harder
CCL is being held down fml
CCL finally starting to take off post earnijgs
Id be curious to know how much of CCL's ticket sales are financed with payday loans. I bet it is close to 50%
CCL flying after incredible earnings
Hey yall send CCL to the moon so I can 7x and have a green all p&l and afford college again
CCL 29 calls. Near dated far dated. All the fucking calls
Yo, can someone explain why Carnival (CCL) got wrecked right after earnings? Numbers looked solid af — beat on EPS, raised guidance, bookings strong… yet the stock still got slapped down. Am I missing some hidden red flag here or is this just a “sell the news” moment?
Shoulda bought CCL. DC critters getting a paid vacation for a couple weeks.
Should have bought calls again for LAC after cashing in my puts damn Now I just need CCL to do the same thing
My CCL calls are down 500% good stuff
I started by selling CSPs on CCL during the varus. Juicy premiums, almost wiped myself but turned out alright.
Whoever bought my CCL calls at the top today, thank you
Need CCL CEO to just start saying the words “AI” and “business” and “stonks” so the mms can get fucked over and skip the BS short term market manipulation post earnings and get to the pump already
CCL just break $35 by Thanksgiving
CCL had good earnings and stock goes down 4% 🤔
My wife convinced me to go on my first cruise with her for her birthday. We are leaving on Thursday on CCL. I will say, they are really good at nickel and diming me and pissing me off over the amount of money this "cheap" cruise is going to cost me. I also had to do a bunch of secondary spending because I'm concerned I'll be bored out of my mind with all the boomer activities listed, so I picked up an iPad Air to read manga on and game controllers.
CCL Key Highlights: Q3 2025 net income reached $1.9 billion, surpassing pre-pandemic (2019) levels; revenue hit a record $8.2 billion with net yields up 4.6% YoY, and adjusted EBITDA of $3.0 billion. Full-year 2025 adjusted net income guidance raised for a third consecutive time, now expected to increase nearly 55% YoY; Q4 2025 net income growth guidance exceeds 60%. Sustainability targets ahead of schedule: food waste reduced by 44%, LNG-powered fleet expansion, and emissions reduction initiatives well-progressed. Debt leverage improved to 3.6x EBITDA; $4.5 billion refinanced and $0.7 billion prepaid to streamline capital structure. 2026 bookings robust: 50% of capacity sold at record prices, occupancy levels at 104%, driving visibility into future revenue and profitability. Targeted fleet expansion and new offerings (Celebration Key, Carnival Festivale) capture demand from Gen Z/Millennial travelers, supporting diversification and market share growth Key Technical Interpretations: RSI at 36.35 indicates the stock is neither strongly oversold nor overbought; weakening momentum could present potential for reversal, but not at extreme levels yet. The stock trades 5.26% below its 20-day SMA ($30.66), a bearish signal short-term, confirming downward price pressure. MACD underscores strengthening bearish momentum; negative lines and a deepening histogram reflect the prevailing downtrend. Options sentiment is mixed: call volume is high (short-term bullish speculation), but open interest shows persistent bearish positioning (higher put OI). Market Analysis: Cruise industry rebound accelerates in 2025-2026: Record high demand, particularly among younger demographics (Gen Z, Millennials), and reversion above pre-pandemic earnings underscore strong sector recovery. Booking visibility remains strong: High forward occupancy and premium pricing for 2026 indicate demand resilience and the capacity to pass through pricing, insulating near-term revenue streams from external shocks. Capacity and sustainability are differentiators: Fleet modernization and onboard innovation align with policy trends and consumer expectations, helping CCL maintain relevance and efficiency within an increasingly competitive industry. Macro and regulatory tailwinds: Easing travel restrictions, pent-up leisure demand, and Carnival’s proactive environmental investments position it ahead on both compliance and consumer brand appeal. Investment Outlook: Short-term (1-3 months): BULLISH | Confidence: 65% Robust quarterly results and upward earnings guidance drive positive sentiment, but short-term technicals show caution with bearish price action and negative momentum. Options activity suggests possible near-term reversal if positive catalysts emerge (e.g., earnings, upgrades). Catalysts: Positive earnings momentum, high call trading activity, seasonal booking peaks. Risks: Ongoing bearish technical trend, potential for market-wide selloffs, headline sensitivity in tourism. Medium-term (3-12 months): BULLISH | Confidence: 75% Strong booking pipeline for 2026, improving leverage metrics, and rising profitability bolster medium-term prospects. Sustainability efforts and new ship launches augment growth narrative. Drivers: Delivery of LNG-powered ships, execution on booking trends, stabilization/further reduction of debt leverage. Risks: Execution on expansion, macroeconomic headwinds (fuel, rates, geopolitical). Risk Assessment: Elevated leverage remains above pre-pandemic norms, exposing CCL to interest rate shifts and refinancing risk should financial conditions tighten. Sustained bearish technical momentum: Despite strong fundamentals, technical signals point to continued short-term weakness unless reversed by material catalysts. Competition and supply expansion risk: Peers are also adding ships; oversupply or aggressive discounting by competitors could pressure yields. Macro/geopolitical exposure: Changes in consumer confidence, oil prices, currency swings, and geopolitical disruptions can quickly affect cruise bookings and margins.
CCL is so rough, it's time to buy more
$CCL (Carnival) despite earnings beat and raising guidance
CCL posting record high earnings (beating even pre-COVID numbers and all estimates) yet remaining less than half the price of the stock pre-COVID and dumping to the ground today is a crazy troll
Okay you can stop dipping CCL That’s enough already 🥴
CCL dip is very attractive Beat on all metrics and raised guidance yet down 5% 🧐 🤔 🤨
Looks like inversing was the right play again. Only bought 5 contracts but made just under $300 on CCL puts. Was playing it really cautious.
My CCL December, January and June calls are taking a nut ounch
Anyone know why CCL dumped?
All in on CCL calls
Idk man. I started out with some regarded strategies and made some decent money with it. Then every time I’ve tried to get smarter and safer after getting burnt, I’ve just been losing more and more lol. I’m still fairly confident CCL will start flying any day now in response to earnings and this glorious discount, along with being widely considered incredibly undervalued and one of the few stocks I see that have a large number of analyst ratings but none saying sell and most saying either buy or strong buy. It just makes me upset to know I could’ve sold my calls at open today for like a 50% profit (didn’t have a huge position though so not incredibly attractive) and then bought again right now and had like 6x the amount of money in the position as well as way cheaper calls to buy with that money.
This seemed to be a pretty damn good beat. Stock soared after CCL’s last earnings and this quarter had EPS of $1.43, up $0.11 from the estimate of $1.3 and up $0.172 YoY from Q3 2024 at $1.258
How is CCL down rn? Record earnings were predicted and actual earnings still beat like 8% and 0.75%. When I got fucked on MU earnings I learned my lesson not to buy weeklies and they MU was priced in, but CCL definitely did not look priced in at all. My calls got plenty of time left in em so eventually it should climb again anyway
Wow. The CCL reversal is pretty epic.
Whats happening with CCL, earnings were great but dropped as soon as market opened
CCL dump after record earnings - 😒
Rip to CCL puts, i shall feel bad for u guys
But cheeks clenched for CCL earnings
just opened a long position 1000 shares of CCL as earnings looking good
just opened a long on CCL, pumping premarket by insider volume
> 1 wins and 4 losses. Puts on CCL! ... Honestly - If they're up: O 31.75 -> H 33.5 -> C 32.75.
Strike price should always be set by price action - for covered calls I look to sell just above resistance. That way you’re letting the chart guide you instead of guessing targets. Coming to expected premiums to receive from the CCs as of 09/26: * **CCL** → IV30 46.53 | Put 2.81% / **Call 2.29%** | 3M Avg Historical: Put 2.37% / **Call 2.05%** * **ABNB** → IV30 31.91 | Put 1.71% / **Call 1.55%** | 3M Avg Historical: Put 1.98% / **Call 1.74%** * **LUV** → IV30 43.28 | Put 2.61% / **Call 2.09%** | 3M Avg Historical: Put 2.26% / **Call 1.81%** CCL and LUV offering higher premiums than their historical average on calls. Good time to sell.
Thank you - I feel set on a covered call target ($140) for ABNB and will likely just put in a CC order for CCL after I see the outcome of Monday's earnings. LUV is a small profit / just curious if more experienced traders feel LUV's better to keep longer-term.
I got a strangle on CCL(I know IV uses yada but I made bank doing this with ORCL.) Hoping to print tomorrow
CCL is about to break $34 in the am
thank you for CCL, i'll find out before opening bell Monday if earnings push the underlying up or not - am trying to ascertain when's a good time to sell CCs after a good earnings boost - (a "sell the news" moment) - that day, or a day later? i've never sold CCs around an earnings date and typically avoid options around earnings dates i feel good about selling CCs at $140 on ABNB to keep earned profits thus far knowing if ABNB starts slides, i have plenty room to sell CCs lower, giving back some of the profit but capturing a good bit back if shares are called away
so you got puts or calls on CCL?
Alright you cheap bastards, here’s a my play on this poor man’s earnings week, these tickers are straight from hell, no fucking idea what the market has for us, but monies is monies: * 🐂 $CCL Oct 18 $30 Call – Cruise momentum, undervalued, buy side loves it. * 🐻 $NKE Oct 18 $65 Put – Ugly guidance, earnings pain incoming. * 🐂 $CAG Nov 15 $19 Call – Value rebound, hated but set up for a squeeze. * 🦍 $RZLV Sell Oct 4 $6/$8 Straddle — Maximum volatility bleed if earnings underwhelm the Wall Street mutants. If these trades work, go buy yourself a used Prius.
Long CCL for easy money, their earnings will be great
got CCL after seeing someone took ccl puts if they don’t print Wall Street bet is a lie
Everybody is bullish on CCL. So bought puts at closing.
CCL earnings numbers are already out for deep investors, volume striked high before earnings showing some big numbers going long so I'd go long if I was you
Shit, sorry, I had a client call this last hour before close and didn't check here. I have CCL down personally.
$1000 into CCL calls, fuggit
I like it. Seems like a battle with IV crush every time, but you obviously have a system that works for you! I know you won't officially make your play for CCL for another half hour (since they report before open on Monday), but I'm still curious where your sentiments lie
Why would you do CUK when CCL has far better options volume?
Selling put credit spreads on CCL. My dad and step mom are peak boomers with a cheap mortgage, pension, motor home, the works. They're literally always on cruises with all of their friends. They've been on like 6 this year already and I lost track of how many of their friends went too. I hate IV crush taking a debit position so I'll just sell put credit spreads at as close to closing price as possible right before market close.
