CCL

Exciting_Hunter9847

Yeah I feel you. SPY and QQQ can get pricey real quick. Some cheaper ones I trade that still move well are PLTR, SOFI, DKNG, and sometimes RIOT or MARA if you're okay with a little more volatility. Ford (F) and CCL are also good if you want something slower and cheaper. Main thing is finding stocks with good volume and clean price action. I’m in a Bulltrix Trading group that focuses mostly on SPY(93% Win Rate) and other tickers...that if you ever want to check it out

It’s a buy. Their debt is about 15B more than before Covid but they have been paying it off significantly YOY. See this chart: https://www.macrotrends.net/stocks/charts/CCL/carnival/long-term-debt They’ve also been pretty successful in restructuring debt. They cut their debt from 32.5B down to 25B over 2.25 years. And the returns haven’t been bad. 55% over the past year. 165% over three years. If you look at pre-COVID — their dividend was about 2 dollars per share per year on 1B outstanding shares. So they paid out 2B in straight cash before Covid which shows you how much profit they print. Once they get their debt back to precovid levels which is about 2-3 years at the current rate I’m sure the dividend and also stock price will return. That’s assuming we don’t hit a recession or world war because both would sink CCL (see 2008) If you think about it, for every billion in debt they pay off and a billion shares outstanding — their price should go up a dollar per share. If that’s the case — at 23 dollars per share and only 15B over pre COVID levels for debt, they are currently under valued (38 vs 50 per share).

If I were you, I would sell a covered call on the 100 shares at 220 for Jan 16, 2026. I think it will earn you about $1,600 by that time if it doesn’t reach that price. Think about it as earning 7% interest on your 23k investment… better than current high yield savings account :) And you can buy another 16 shares to do 2 covered calls. And if the stocks go up, you are happy to part with them. I did this to my CCL that I bought at $30 4-years ago and able to bring down the average cost down to near the stock price now.

West_Lavishness6689

the market crashed. anything i bought was bouncing up and down. i bought CCL at $8 a share and sold at $18 within a few weeks i bought NIO at 3$ and sold at $15 (if i waited till it hit 60 a share i would've hit 1 million in 2021) i bought ZOM at $0.13 and sold at $1.30 i bought ZOM again at $0.85 and sold at $2.60 i bought CRTM $0.38 and sold at $0.90 I bought AMC at $2.00 and sold at $6.50 (the day before it hit $20 otherwise i wouldve made 300k off of this one trade, i traded after hours too the night before, this one still hurts) i bought NYMT at $1.25 and sold at $4.11 I bought GEVO at $0.50 and sold at $2.00 (this went to $20, again wouldve hit 1 million if i didnt sell early) i bought WKHS at $1.34 and sold at $3.33 (this also hit $20 range, again wouldve made 1 million if i didnt sell early) everything i did was just good timing, and in my opinion i did it all correctly, i didnt get greedy and keep waiting, if i held all of these stocks and never sold i would be in the red over 50% on every. single. one. When i started buying RYCEY the stock just behaved differently and i knew it would be my long term play. so as i cashed everything out, making sure i had enough to pay the short term capital gains tax, i was taking gains and my income and kept buying more and more shares or RYCEY. only stock i have held since middle of 2021. and it continues to be the only stock that i buy.

Still in, this quarter is at present looking bad... All gains vanished. Tesla meme is the worst hitter...CCL is just bad. Should have listened to you! Next time!

Princess (under CCL) runs their 3+4 sail free and 50% off sale year round now so they are attracting a lot of families when before they were known as the 'senior' cruise line. Lol your point #2 isn't wrong either. Been with Princess for years, they're nickel and diming the SHIT out of passengers now for everything. Just last week they shut down canned soda with the drink package, Last year I switched on over to Virgin Voyages and I don't see myself on Princess ever again unless a casino offer comes my way

CCL has been so flat since the pandemic. I like Royal Caribbean instead.

FoolsGoldMouthpiece

CCL is Red Lobster, RCL is Truluck's

RoundTableMaker

Idk. If you get the cheapest room on a carnival cruise, you're still going to have decent food and entertainment. I would say CCL and rcl are the same in terms of quality and target the same market segment. Disney is higher end than either. I would highly recommend going on a 6-7 day cruise at least once with CCL or rcl. Then at least you can say you hate it.

LowFlyingOwls47

The CCL cruisers will be replaced by the Royal Caribbean cruisers who still w at to cruise, but not pay the premium for RC.

FoolsGoldMouthpiece

Have you ever been on a CCL cruise? Their customers will be the first to cut back in the recession

SuperbobU2

CCL does have debt but they also post positive earnings every quarter so they will pay it off. So its a good long term investment. I bought it at beginning of Covid. RCL did better since covid. So might be too late to get in that

I have about 20 that I watch. Some more steady than others. NVIDIA, TSLA, SMCI, CRWV, MBX Biosciences, AMC, GME, Ford pays grear dividends even though it doesn't move much, AMD, AAL, and I like CCL because my wife and I tale a lot of cruises. Carnival gives you $100 onboard credit if you hold at least 100 shares. I recommend just watching and playing small money. Once you're find a rhythm you're comfortable with, grow each one by adding money out of pocket. Most importantly, it is never withdraw any gains. Just keep rolling them over and exponentially grow your portfolio.

The best way to hedge is owning long puts. Given recent market turmoil, they're more expensive now. You can lower that cost with a put spread but a short put 30% OTM won't defray much of the cost (1-2% to maybe 13% if one or twelve months out). You can eliminate the cost with a long stock collar. Backspreads can be effective but they have their risks. Every few years when the market looks sketchy, I hedge my portfolio, some individually (collars), some with SPY or IWM options. 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 and the short puts become worth very little, 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. To be clear, the objective is to have 10% of inexpensive portfolio protection that is 10% OTM in the early part of the year. If it's later in the year, it turns into very low cost long put protection. In 2020, I had a lot of leftover long March SPY puts worth 10 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). I survived the collapse of stocks hit hardest by the pandemic because of this hedging. This year, the tariff talk troubled me. In early February, I bought Sep and Jan IWM $210 puts outright and I have rolled them down 3 times to $175, putting a nice gain in my pocket. They're now free and if the market manages to reverse, I don't care if they expire worthless. They offset a large chunk of my portfolio's loss which I booked when I rolled and that is what they were intended for. Who knows, maybe they pay off even more in the next 4-8 months??? One can only hop :->)

CCL too.

I disagree with most of the answers that you've received. Hedging a portfolio is very different than trading short term. Every few years when the market looks sketchy, I hedge a lot of my positions, some individually, some with SPY/IWM options. 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.

Who knows, maybe they pay off even more in the next 4-8 months??? One mroe thing, if your long puts were intended as a hedge and they're nicely profitable, IMHO, roll them down rather than sell short puts against them.

satireplusplus

> It would literally only be Canadians that they're losing. Got it, so -80% on bookings, because who in their right mind goes to a country that's openly hostile towards you and wants to annex you. What do we need to short? All the clown stocks like CCL that barely survived covid?

W_Malinowski

Selling CCL puts has been great

DennyDalton

Sorry it was so rough for you in 2020. I'm long since retired so not blowing up has been my number one priority. I hedge individual positions and occasionally buy some long dated index puts for tail risk. In 2020, I had a number of 1,000 share positions. Most were down hard. The worst were DOW and FL down \~50% and CCL down \~80%. With the hedges, overall I lost less than 10% which was easy to recover from.

I asked AI about this: The post you shared is a dramatic take on current financial events, but let’s break it down with some facts: 1. **China’s U.S. Treasury Holdings**: China does hold a significant amount of U.S. debt—approximately $759 billion [A](https://www.forbes.com/sites/joelshulman/2025/04/09/us-rally-at-risk-as-china-may-be-dumping-treasuries/?copilot_analytics_metadata=eyJldmVudEluZm9fbWVzc2FnZUlkIjoiV1lOaDhqdWtnRDhUcHNxR1RwSlhmIiwiZXZlbnRJbmZvX2NsaWNrU291cmNlIjoiY2l0YXRpb25MaW5rIiwiZXZlbnRJbmZvX2NsaWNrRGVzdGluYXRpb24iOiJodHRwczpcL1wvd3d3LmZvcmJlcy5jb21cL3NpdGVzXC9qb2Vsc2h1bG1hblwvMjAyNVwvMDRcLzA5XC91cy1yYWxseS1hdC1yaXNrLWFzLWNoaW5hLW1heS1iZS1kdW1waW5nLXRyZWFzdXJpZXNcLyIsImV2ZW50SW5mb19jb252ZXJzYXRpb25JZCI6IllrWUwzTXVFSkhiNTZGUUpmWVY2VSJ9&citationMarker=9F742443-6C92-4C44-BF58-8F5A7C53B6F1).

Also, FUCK this fool for fucking my CCL by mentioning taxing cruise lines and then never mentioning it again. Dropped $4-5 in a day because of him. Not a peep since. Where u at now? Why not say it again, tax em to hell! Also he said this about the Tariffs like what he prob would say to comfort a victim - “My advice to every country right now is: Do not retaliate. Sit back, take it in, let’s see how it goes. Because if you retaliate, there will be escalation. If you don’t retaliate, this is the high-water mark,” he warned.

Anecdotally, a buddy of mine works with cruise line bookings (I think CCL) and says people are cancelling or postponing their cruises next winter. They're not comfortable dropping $5K on tropical vacation when they're unsure if they'll even have a job by Christmas. If the recession doesn't pan out then I'd expect that to come pouring back quick. But remember after '08, airlines spent the next decade collapsing and consolidating.

Hi all, I have a question in regards to options and wash sales. I have 10,000 shares of a company (CCL). I'm currently down a good chunk and have decided to sell call options on my shares to generate at least something for now. I have about 4000 shares listed as wash sale. If I put up 60 contracts instead of 100 will it sell those shares? Does it sell based on most recently acquired? Oldest acquired? Is there a way to specify that I don't want those specific shares sold? I use Fidelity as my broker. Id hate to have those shares called away and not be able to at least deduct them on my taxes.

I thought I could do a similar thing but I always "find" new moves that look worth the risk. Last week it was PYPL puts on Monday for like .56 that went to 3.25 by Wednesday, but then I thought you know what seems like a good idea? TGT ITM calendar strangles. Didn't go as planned due to me being an idiot. And then I thought well if TGT tanked then surely ROSS... Right? No... Not right. Then I saw that ASTS and VOD teamed up to do satellite shit and 10C for Jan 2027 were ONLY .91... It's like TWO YEARS AWAY... Of course VOD will be worth at least 40 by then, right??? So why not??? It's a bargain at this price... And then I was like well SMCI just had earnings and shit... Of course 0DTE puts on Friday will pay... They did... But then I was like well CCL IV is super high right now... A 0DTE put play here seems logical... It was not 😂😂😂 And I don't even have ADHD.

Some good starting tickers could be F, GM, EWZ, X, M, CCL, LUV, W, FXI, OXY, XLRE, GME (might be a little wild, would t sell naked) Small positions, net credit, 45DTE, good quality tickers, 68 delta, close 21 DTE or 50% profit. Have fun

Buying $22 puts 6/20 exp. On CCL-- given the global climate, tariffs, reduced consumer discretionary spending there's no way they won't be impacted. Plus, the cruise industry typically suffers in a recession and they haven't fully recovered from covid. High OI AND the puts are pretty cheap considering... not financial advice though

Yeah that’s another part of it, there’s a certain financial nihilism to my generation (mid 20s) I’ve noticed amongst friends and peers. Many have pretty much given up on owning a home or being well off, so rather than pinch penny’s for a down payment they would rather put that money to improving their quality of life with the little things, like nice food, clothes, and affordable vacations. Have a large position on $CCL as well

Im doing great. I went to therapy after losing life changing money and was advised to go back to university and learn to trade seriously. I have a BS economics and am working towards level 4 CFA. And for the real question everyone wants to know: yes, i made it all back. Currently sitting w 1.6m in my IRA ( had 25k shares of CCL at $6, 2500 shares of spxl at 53 - those were my biggest winners so far. Trimmed the hedges and am still holding 20k CCL at 8.64 and 1000 spxl @ 53) I got heavy into SBIC’s before the yeildmaxes came out. My strategy went from “how can i make the most out of this little bit of cash” to “what can I do to minimize risk” and that has been the game changer for me personally. I’m up 414% ytd lol (we’ll see how the rest of the 10 months go)

MARA, TSLL, CCL, CLSK are a few I’ve had success with not already mentioned here.

The biggest loss for me would be opportunity loss. I bought in CCL durring covid at like 7.00 and paper handed because it wasn't growing fast enough for my expectations. Now, if I buy anything, my minimum holding time is 18 months.

Dr_Watson349

I too remember the glorious times. Before GME. When you could make a honest living buying puts on CCL.

Gaza soon to be cruise destination. CCL, NCLH, RCL

I don't even look at that. I bought 2 CCL 2/21/25 $28 puts last week because I thought it was getting up there, $150 gamble. Dipped into the $26 range today (thanks Donny) and sold for $300. Volatility increases the value of options. But yes, if you guess wrong you lose your premium. So choose stocks that you are fairly confident will move in your chosen direction.

CCL and NCLH for the moment. Riding massive gains in both since the teens. Cruise demand is huge and 2025 is already mostly booked for the big 3.

noClip2

What's going on with CCL?

geraldz

Short CCL. Getting out of hand

Bob_the_peasant

Damn, CCL was worth like 2.5x this amount before Covid. Adjust for inflation and this shit is still super undervalued I think. Not volatile enough for WSB but Jesus, I thought cruise shit would have recovered more than this

When times are good, you do not buy unhealthy companies. When times are bad, you do not buy unhealthy companies. I bought shares of EXPE MAR CCL during March 2020 COVID crash. A bit risky given cash flows went to almost non-existent with at the time no signs of return to normalcy. CCL was extremely risky and took by far the longest to recover. EXPE was assisted by PE. If you know anything about the history of EXPE it was spun out from MSFT and was always backed by big money. If you know anything about MAR business model, they primarily franchise out and collect the fees.
