If RCL keeps dropping by 1.5% every day, it should be around 170 within 30 days

What about Royal Caribbean (RCL)? It is on a 12 day losing streak. I know it is impacted by volatile oil prices and the current macro environment, but seems like it has come down too much compared to business fundamentals.

As a frequent RCL trader, don't sell here unless you need to. 290-300 should be retaken when there's news (again) on Hormuz and 330 is doable after that.

I don't have exact wording, I don't use "prompts" in the traditional way people try to get ChatGPT from Point A to Point B. There is no magic wording. As I mentioned, it acts as a research assistant. We talk conversationally, back and forth. I mentioned Trading Places a few days ago and ChatGPT now signs off our stock talks by regularly saying "Looking good, Billy Ray! 😀🥂". Feeling good, Louis. I have a list of stocks I've followed for years. A few weeks ago I saw one of my stocks had again climbed close to its yearly high. I had noticed it fell back frequently when it did this so I bought 5 put contracts @ .90 each,.that we're right around the money. $450 invested. I decided I'd ask ChatGPT about the trade. Provided a screen shot of my position, etc. I then explained, what it called my "thesis". Showed the previous years chart and it kind of took it from there. Did a bunch of research, told me why it thought my thesis was reasonable and then we followed it. It made several suggestions regarding harvesting the puts along the way to protect my investment. Overly so. We talked about my risk, what I was willing to do, where I was going, and how I hoped it would benefit me long time. Have I learned anything new? Absolutely. Have I retained that knowledge at my age? Not as much as I'd like but it has definitely been an education and Chat is right there if I have a question. Am I going to lose my ass? I don't think so. I've been fairly lucky this month, so haven't had times when Chat has told me to SELL! I have little doubt it will be anxious, not because of the commission its going to receive, but it actively wants to protect my investment, and me, to a certain extent. My RCL put expires on Friday and we are having a great time. We have made several other investments with a variety of target dates and prices. My goal is $30k by years end. We started with $450 and I added an additional $300 when we rolled the CCL two weeks. Smart move though I wished we'd rolled them another week. But again, Chat is not saying but this stock at this price, and tries to confirm my analysis, not necessarily provide its own, unless it goes against standard stock practices which it seems to know plenty about. I would never use it if I didn't have a working knowledge of the stock market. You wouldn't know the right questions to ask if you see something that doesn't look right. You don't know what looks right or wrong. So, no fancy prompt. Good luck.

RCL down due to not enough sales for Oasis of the Seas Perfect 7-night Perfect Day at Strait of Hormuz

Robbissimo

I admit I also use ChatGPT as a stock assistant. I'm 64 and an amateur options trader. My one claim to fame was $1000 investment in Jan '20 that made me $25k when Covid blew up. Chat and I have a good working relationship. I provide the thesis for the trade, Chat does all the research. At this point, I can not complain. Does it tell me what and when to buy? No, but it can quickly look at a series of calls/puts and suggest which would be likely targets based on my strategy. Does it purposely support my strategy? Yes, but from what I've seen also points out the risks and doesnt care about its commission. I have limited experience and am playing with a small bankroll but we're up 194% for the month. We still have an ITM RCL put option that expires in 2 weeks, two new options, and more buying power at the end of the month than what I had at the beginning. Slow and steady wins the race. Chat is identifying companies that have multiple downside risks that meet my thesis. I'm not looking for companies going bankrupt, but companies whose stocks have room to pull back in a selloff. I intend on being in the market, strategically placed to benefit. So small bets, with time, take profits when possible, limit losses, but have your toe in the water so you can feel the temp.

How the fk did RCL go up to 300? Back in 2022 they were only about 40 per share. Are they renting out floating data centers?

Currently holding a bunch of RCL that I bought during COVID. Obviously way up, but the current climate has it off last year's highs. My thought process is do I need the money right now? No Do I need the money this year? No Do I need the money next year? No The year after that? Maybe, maybe not I can wait out the current "situation".

Ok but at least during Covid, some sectors took a huge hit . cruises, airlines, hotels… etc. For example, during Covid , I bought RCL $25 (high pre Iran $360, now $280), UAL $25, CCL $7 , etc. Now, they are STILL at all time highs even though those sectors should be affected. Doesn’t make sense this time….feels very manipulated and not clean dips. Something is off.

DarkLordKohan

I’ve made thousands more on options than I ever have going to casinos. I dropped $150 pressing flashing buttons to go home with an empty wallet just tonight. But sold a RCL put for $220 and sold a day later for $200 profit.

My biggest regret was buying the heavy on the CCL dip during Rona and not the RCL dip.

Alright, so over the last few years I changed jobs, and I have put all my rollovers in one spot. So here is what I have, and I feel like having this in individual stocks like this is not ideal. Should I be putting this in an actual retirement fund like a 2045 or something? I would rather set and forget these and just contribute to them now each year. So I have my current job which has a 401k that i contribute 12% and they match 4% in. That is separate from this conversation of my two rollover IRA's, one rollover and one roth, totaling about $28,203.36. When I consolidated them I had paid for an advisor and he chose the stocks to buy, and some did really well, but then he started trying to upsell me on some insurance stuff I didn't want. The only things I have added on my own volition to these are the SPY, VTI, and VXUS since then. I am just looking for some guidance, or questions I need to ask myself that I am not seeing or doing. The first one is the Rollover IRA: $11,459.97 (overall: -$1,451.93 / -11.25%) * CRWD - CrowdStrike: shares: 6.066 | cur val: $2,567.31 | %acct: 22.40% | g/l: +$331.51 / +14.82% * MSTR - Strategy Inc: shares: 10.391 | cur val: $1,285.57 | %acct: 11.22% | g/l: -$2,714.34 / -67.86% * NVDA - NVIDIA: shares: 27.413 | cur val: $4,882.25 | %acct: 42.60% | g/l: +$882.30 / +22.05% * RDDT - Reddit Inc: shares: 7.566 | cur val: $1,067.86 | %acct: 9.32% | g/l: +$100.97 / +10.44% * SPY - S&P 500 ETF: shares: 2.513 | cur val: $1,656.61 | %acct: 14.46% | g/l: -$52.37 / -3.07% The second is the ROTH IRA: $16,743.39 (overall: +$3,126.65 / +23.01%) * AVGO - Broadcom: shares: 14.155 | cur val: $4,727.34 | %acct: 28.23% | g/l: +$2,227.48 / +89.10% * NUE - Nucor Corp: shares: 16.211 | cur val: $2,808.71 | %acct: 16.77% | g/l: +$188.16 / +7.18% * RCL - Royal Caribbean: shares: 18.002 | cur val: $4,819.31 | %acct: 28.78% | g/l: +$819.45 / +20.48% * VTI - Vanguard Total Market: shares: 12.955 | cur val: $4,215.94 | %acct: 25.18% | g/l: -$117.55 / -2.72% * VXUS - Vanguard Intl: shares: 1.845 | cur val: $143.94 | %acct: 0.86% | g/l: +$9.11 / +6.76% I also just realized that I can and should be contributing to these every year, up to $7,500, which I plan to do this year. I just want to do it right and according to my goals that I don't think I am set up for. Thanks in advance to any and all help, much appreciated!

Buying $35k of RCL right when covid hit @30 and sold @100. ended up paying off my house.

ColForbinClimbs

A company that uses massive amounts of marine diesel hedges by locking in prices for their fuel at a previously specified price. Currently RCL has insulated itself from fuel spikes with 60% of their fuel for 2026 covered, and 47% for 2027.

ColForbinClimbs

Apparently RCL hedges their fuel costs exceptionally well. Not sure it'll help in this extreme environment but that could be something to watch.

thenorthernwhiteboy

Yeah months out SPY contracts are super expensive. I dont tend to trade SPY but if I do it’s usually over 2 weeks out and under a month, try to kill some decay. Go take a peak at how much leaps cost haha. Obviously it is still exponentially cheaper than buying the actual shares but Just grabbed 2 contracts of RCL 230 puts exp. Apr 24 few days ago.

TheOpeningBell

RCL fuel cost is 15% of their total expenses and they have 55-62% of their fuel already hedged. You're screwed.

Agitated_Patience_75

what do you mean why is it relevant? it's one of the biggest lessons learned for the cruise industry, it taught them to not get caught again with their pants down (in their case pants down means having too much debt and not enough FCF). RCL wasn't in as much trouble as its competitors and its balance sheet was more solid than a lot of these other cruise companies. They're fine and their management is solid. Now with the war situation and the oil prices: if i were them i would have price locked fuel contracts for at least 1 year so that fuel price swings don't affect me as much. I'm pretty sure they did that, if i, an anon account on the internet thought about it, they did too. And they have the negotiation power and leverage to do it. As for the war...it's disrupting a lot of countries around the world, it's in everyone's best interest to finish as fast as possible. Give it a month or two, my 2 cents is that it's over before the summer starts and things go back to normal. And when that happens nothing will happen in the stock market, except a small bump and then back to slowly crashing. It's been doing that since before the war started. Just my opinions, personally I'm long RCL at any price below $270 (pretty sure i sold them to OP). Currently I'm short puts hoping i get assigned, getting paid while i wait. But otherwise I'm 6figs all cash, not buying anything else in this environment. Just nibbling

Boston-Bets

This isn't COVID, and prices are likely to be down by end of April. Your breakeven's around $250 (currently RCL is $270) so good luck.

fork_yuu

First time looking at RCL vs CCL and they look so goddamn different. RCL looks like it's on a rocket ship to the moon but carnival is like barely fucking floating. Wtf is off with these 2

gregw134

You picked the wrong cruise, RCL has a hedge: "We anticipate full-year fuel expense of approximately $1.17 billion, with 60% of our projected fuel consumption hedged" CCL is unhedged tho

Andres17G

RCL is coming from record earnings. As was mentioned, they can simply tack on a fuel surcharge to guests. Covid is not a comparable scenario because the ships were fully stopped at first, then operating at reduced capacity and people were not very eager to cruise then. Last earnings call they mentioned most of 2026 is sold out, even with less offers and sales than before. It may be a bit of rocky sailing in the short term but it definitely will recover. The stock shot up 20 points immediately a few days ago when the situation in Hormuz seemed to be improving.

Worried-Penalty8744

The biggest ships are all gas powered now RCL will jus put the price up to cover anyway and their seasoned passengers who spend half their life on the ships will just pay it anyway because they are “Loyal To Royal”

Homeless-Coward-2143

As a dad, I welcome the idea of covid style promotions for RCL. It's the only time my kids leave me the fuck alone.

iFiredIce

That's what I'm sayin lol I had the same exact idea as this dude on like tuesday before looking at CCL and RCL's YTD chart, reading like 2 articles, and figuring it out lol

Mnmsaregood

RCL is gonna fuck your ass. They are well positioned and can weather this conflict longer than you can hold your position. If the war ends you’re screwed lol

iFiredIce

Dawg your options expire like 2 weeks before RCL's earnings report so even if it does affect them it won't be reported until your contracts have expired. You did no DD, it's okay to admit

fnoguei1

You know the bulk of RCL's itineraries are around the Caribbean right? You know... "Royal CARIBBEAN". Very far from the Middle East

HellKnightKilla

I've been keeping an eye on cruise stocks and there's been fuckery happening with them for years RCL's pump over the last year has been crazy Even with the current Iran stuff they've been holding strong over even shit like Apple, makes me think that there's a lot of MM bags in the cruise stocks keeping them afloat I want you to win OP, but you're fighting some big players

iFiredIce

Bro you should have read like 2 articles. RCL trades oil futures to keep costs low as possible. IIRC they basically already had the entire year's worth of fuel paid for before the war even started

iFiredIce

Also RCL trades futures to keep costs low lol Carnival would have been play because AFAIK they're the only cruise company that doesn't trade futures in case of something exactly like this Even with that bro is like 2 months late to that party. Ship has sailed on this move IMO

Little_Database_5417

This war will have ripple effect on the stocks in years to come. inflation, price of oil, food, electricity, water, etc will it hit hard on the economy? are the stocks mainly on entertainment, travel tourism, hotels, cruise etc, be impacted. should I get rid of my stocks CCL, NCLH, RCL, Gameshop, before it is too late? please advise

Little_Database_5417

This war will have ripple effect on the stocks in years to come. inflation, price of oil, food, electricity, water, etc will be hard hitting the economy. stocks on entertainment, travel tourism, hotels, cruise etc, will be greatly impacted. If you own these stocks CCL, NCLH, RCL, GME, , etc. get rid of them now before it is too late.

Little_Database_5417

No, don't take that misconception. The war is far from over. trump might want to claim victory, no he is not. iran can go on and on, and on. The damage done in past 2 weeks is far from recovery. the economy, is hit badly. Oil, natural gas, fertilizer is going to hike the price of food, and other dependent products. Inflation is inevitable. Entertainment stocks, like cruise line, e.g. NCLH, CCL, RCL, will free fall. If you own these stocks, I suggest get rid of them now.

2CommaNoob

Well; RCL is 6% cheaper today lol. Jones act repeal benefits vs $150+ oil? Which wins for the cruise industry? I’d say the latter lol. I agree calls on cruise lines if this act stays repealed when this is all over.

Independent_Name_601

If they can play the washy washy song from RCL I’m in.

Independent_Name_601

If you are saying this aloud it means you are probably considering it as an investment. TBH I’ve done pretty good with it. Probably above average returns. But I DCA companies all the time. Right now I flipped it all into RCL, NFLX, and RXRX for a high volatility play. I have hedged my holdings downside so it is capping my return, but a one off release will let it skyrocket when bullishness finally returns.

Frightrain

It can be both, it all depends on the time you buy it. For a while they were doing quite badly but since then demand has picked up quite a bit and their revenue is looking good again, their p/e is roughly half of RCL (stock is doing crazy well).  Everyone was talking about it during 2020 but not many people held on. To be fair there were better stocks to invest in at the time, but I think people extremely underestimate the value of holding almost any company that isn't a complete failure long term. I don't forever hold stocks though, I buy companies I believe are below their intrinsic value and sell them when I think they are fairly priced. My target is 47~50 dollars for CCL (not financial advice) based on the bit of research I've done, but I would definitely trail my stop up at those prices to lock in profits.

Independent_Name_601

I don’t have a crystal ball but I think RCL down on Monday if anyone is contemplating buying. Over the weekend it was announced a Mexican Court is stalling the project to review environmental concerns with the project. Sounds like it should be temporary and will get back up and running. In other news, Cruise leaving out of Galveston was delayed due to medical issue they have to take care of before allowing Cruisers board. This is delaying the departure. These two things plus overall negative sentiment over the weekend revolving around Gold, Silver, and BTC are going to be working against stocks and RCL. Other Geopolitical news that may impact stocks on Monday: 1) Saudi Arabia said No to US as far as allowing them to use military bases to go after Iran. 2) the mainstream and social media storm surrounding ICE and Epstein Files may continue to hinder stocks into early this week. That’s my take, I think RCL, among other stocks = down on Monday. Create additional buying opportunities for me.

RCL has had a up and down few weeks but if you bought right after Covid you in the $$$ now

SilverShape

The big thing for me is looking at dips that dont make sense. My two dip plays have been UPS and RCL. Bought UPS at $89 because I figured it had gone down due to slowdown after the covid bump but would be ultimately fine in the long run (and a good dividend). Bought RCL after it went down 5% 3 days in a row when Trump was on a “flags of convenience” tirade that I figured would never happen. Bought ~$250 and sold ~$340.
