Cruise travel has exploded.. RCL up $30 in a month
Yeah I sold my RCL stock thinking something is going to happen again and bring it back down with oil going up. I’m happy even if I’m wrong.
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?
Buying RCL shares at this price…boats n hoes
Think puts on cruise lines like CCL or RCL will print? Just saw reports of 100 norovirus cases on another ship

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".
All-in RCL! Those cruises aren't gonna enjoy themselves
Anyone else loading up on RCL at these prices?
Was going to buy 200 shares of RCL to get shareholder cabin credits in 2022. It was trading at ~$35 when I didn’t buy it. It closed at $285 last Friday. 🤷
#JUST LIKE WE ALL PREDICTED, the top 50B+ market cap stocks today was MSTR, RCL, CVNA!
Bought RCL at the low today just on a whim and feeling like Warren Buffet in AH
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.
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!
Look to get short UAL and CCL and then at some point long DAL and RCL?
Buying $35k of RCL right when covid hit @30 and sold @100. ended up paying off my house.
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.
Apparently RCL hedges their fuel costs exceptionally well. Not sure it'll help in this extreme environment but that could be something to watch.
Anyone else watching RCL? Down about 20% from ATH.. tempted to buy shares and hold
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.
RCL fuel cost is 15% of their total expenses and they have 55-62% of their fuel already hedged. You're screwed.
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
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.
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
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
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.
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”
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.
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
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
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
You know the bulk of RCL's itineraries are around the Caribbean right? You know... "Royal CARIBBEAN". Very far from the Middle East
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
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
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
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
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.
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.
CCL, RCL, and NCHL. But if I had to pick one, it would be CCL.
Shorting RCL worked fantastic during covid, made a killing. Maybe it's time for round two?
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.
If they can play the washy washy song from RCL I’m in.
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.
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.
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.
Bought more RCL after that 7% pullback. I’m going to announce every time I buy
How many fucking cruises are people going on for RCL to be up so much from covid lows, crazy
RCL and DECK make up 90% of my portfolio.
ha i used to work at CCL and bought a boat load of shares during Covid. my 1600 CCL shares are up 61% and 113 RCL shares are up a staggering 382%
RCL and LUV with the crazy gains today. Yup, people still got plenty of money. Calls all the way.
RCL up 20% and nobody talks about it lol
#RCL up 14% on the news that Americans trying to book cruises just to get away from America for a while LMAO🤌
I just buy baby buy on RCL. They are top cruise line and are on pace to not only outclass the other lines they will be top in market share and revenue before 2035. I suspect we will be there in 2030 or shortly after. Every red day I buy more RCL. My portfolio is up to 83% RCL and is probably higher now with this jump in price.
TUI is going to come out of nowhere and be a force. Just wait and see. RCL owns part of them now, but they will become a global player in a few years.
Someone forgot to tell RCL that.
If someone in here keeps buying RCL and causing it to tank, can you stop please. 💫
Buying NKE, Buying DECK, Buying RCL. That is all.
RCL has had a up and down few weeks but if you bought right after Covid you in the $$$ now
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.
Right, there's a reason Carnival is considered the Walmart of cruise lines. The wealthy will lean towards RCL or VIK.
"Dad, why don't we have presents like the other kids?" Well ya see son... Daddy got caught on the wrong side of the $ORCL/$RCL trade.
I have klar as well Thoughts on RCL as it continues to freefall?
Watch me catch the falling knife of RCL
I only have 1 stock in my portfolio. RCL
I bought 7,142 of RCL during Covid at $14 a share, sold it after I made $20,000. Should have waited 3 more years. Still pisses me off today
guys its time to buy in signs of a bottom are almost there, the small caps and value stocks are not going down even though index are red. bitcoin is plunging further and indexes did not move in tandem anymore. when the index goes down but quality stocks are not done it signals a bottom already. look at RCL, UPS, UAL, bank stocks, money is going to rotate out of tech into these stocks. frothy stocks will remain in consolidation
This chad’s gonna be laughing all the way to the bank. These are winners except maybe UUUU and RCL but even those got a pulse. Uhhh nvm I mean he’s totally cooked 🤡 see you at Wendy’s diamond hands 🚀👐
I hope ! UUUU and RCL are hopeless though
NCLH followed CCL and RCL and puts were pretty cheap!
No reason for it not to be honestly. Problem is NCLH (and CCL but I don't trade them out of spite of that company) are drug whichever way RCL is going. My long term target for RCL is around 460. I loaded with RCL when they tanked in 2020 at 19.90 a share.
They're literally the only companies that operate with net cash on hand vs the traditional in debt we trust. RCL does anyways. They were shut down for almost an entire year and survived. No big brother handout. Against all odds. Everything. If that doesn't prove that they are among the most resilient business, then nothing will prove it to you. I am a hardcore bull on RCL. NCLH and CCL not so much because they love to dilute their shareholders. Fun fact, you're just as likely to catch norovirus from a flight as you are a cruise.
Anyone buying CCL, RCL puts? I just came back from an island near Venezuela and I think some military action is gonna happen soon
If you go to 15 delta's your premiums and percentage returns much lower. With quicker turnover and call aways on CC you then need to reinvest the funds and chances of bad decisions or unlucky outcomes increases Higher short term percentage return does not mean it will be a more profitable overall return using longer roll outs. Nvidia is perhaps a uncommon example but I have also rolled out other stocks like COIN and RCL so it clearly is not that uncommon.
I wasn’t paying much attention to it today, but RCL stock dropped very sharply. I had an investment analyst at my firm send me the stock price late in the day, complete with daily chart, and said “End of SNAP”.
I just sold my RCL stock last week! 🎉 🥳 🎉
Dugyres RCL would kill it then rate cut pump/ china tarrif pump
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.
