Betterlife.

The good news that everything else went up, so despite losing a lot on CCL with a 52p drop last week, and then another 21p drop probably upon opening, everything else went up by more.!

Imagine what's going to happen when CCL all of a sudden jumps.!

Hopefully you didn't sell IAG though, as it's started to climb.

Hopefully it will gain some legs now as well.

$16.26 close today.

So total of 31c drop since our close.

22p drop for tomorrow morning.

Looks like it's stopped moving as everyone has gone for Easter.

So $16.33

24c drop

17p drop since our close.

Lets see what happens now.!

AParky.

Just ignore.

Re the Cup aspect, there's a problem, I don't use Cups, only Mugs, does that mean that the jump can be higher.?

Bhants.

If memory serves, the US is closed Friday, but open Monday.

So we will have the whole of Monday without the UK trading, and then not until 2.30pm UK time on Tuesday because the US opens.

Next week and the week after will be fun

Also.

Just to make you feel better Betterlife........

See Analyst ratings now...

The fact that we now have 17 Buy Ratings... and a Median Price Target of $21.22, which is nearly $5 more than current, or £3.50 ish.........

Betterlife.

AI Auto-Bots do.

Look at the Buys and Sells and the volumes, 50, 5, 2, 100, 1 etc. etc.

Selling 1,000 times at 5 shares each can move the SP significantly, vs selling one trade at 5,000 shares.

But, they dump the price, then by in, with volumes, then move the price up.

Exactly the same happened in June 2023. They dumped the price by 10% ish, then increased it by 35% ish within a period of two weeks ish.

Are you crying now?

There's crying and then there's just ignorance and abuse.

This board although has banter does not have abuse.

More than happy to shoot the breeze with you, more than happy to have a banter and a bit of fun to pass the time of day.

Unfortunately the results were as expected, and with the history of the CCL share price movement, it was obvious that there would be a good chance that exactly as I predicted would happen.

The good news, is that this will bounce heavily back upwards once they have tanked and scared everyone.

As I've said, join the banter, or don't, up to you.

Ken.

Lloyds is one of those classic shares that despite all the logic the SP is still cr*p.

Should it be double, absolutely..... Will it be double, probably not. It would probably bounce back to 30p knowing Lloyds.

The good thing about Lloyds is the Divi even at todays price, being over 5% dividend payment is a good reasonable return, assuming the SP goes up..... But, Alas, Lloyds is one of those that makes no sense

Betterlife.

I've said it before, and I'm sure I'll say it again.

Unless you need the money or are desperate to sell because there is a burning share that you absolutely have to buy, then just leave it alone.

I enjoy moaning and posting on here as this board is probably the only board that there is no abuse, but take all the theatre to one side, the reality is that shares go up and they go down, the big boys use AI to pump and dump, and us little people stare and watch, but eventually the company fundamentals take over.

Debt is being paid off, new ships are being ordered, the fleet and capacity is expanding, the price per seat is increasing, the margin is expanding and bottom line revenues are getting stronger and stronger.

There is a very good chance that once debt has been paid down enough that they do a share buy back as well to reverse some of the RI they did.

The £17 was always a stretch goal and a hope, but I firmly believe that CCL will be £20 by the end of 2024, £25 end of 2025 and £30 end of 2026. BUT.... Let's just say I'm dreaming, whatever the reality, this will be double within a few years.

You could sell, buy M&G, Natwest, Lloyds, Marks and Spencers etc. etc. but reality is that will any of them within the next few years double....

This will bounce up and down up and down, and if you time it right, then you can potentially make free shares...... time it wrong and you miss the spikes.....

Answer....... Ignore it, Post, Moan, Have Fun, But In My Opinion, Hold......

It's currently $17.62

and NCL are now up 7.29%..........unbelievable.........

CCL - Over 3% Down - NOW 0.79% UP

NCL - 1.6% UP - NOW 4.37% UP

RCCL - 0.7% UP - NOW 1.27% UP

NCL within One month, despite being on it's knee's has gone up 32% from 26th Feb.

CCL - Over 3% Down

NCL - 1.6% UP

RCCL - 0.7% UP

Maybe it's time for CCL to look at it's operational costs.

Over a $5bn revenue and still a loss per share....... That shows that the overheads of way way way too much.

Carnival, P&O, AIDA, Cunard, Costa, Holland America, Princess, Seabourn....

8 CEO's, 8 CFO's, 8 Senior Management teams, 8 Different offices, 8 of everything.

Plus. Carnival Corp overheads on top of that.

Betterlife

Yep. Unfortunately I was right. A 90p swing from top to bottom, £45,000.

Maybe today I should have followed my hunch.!

Fordy...

We miss you.!

Carnival Corp needs to streamline, how they can still be making a loss on those capacities and revenues is not good.

If they got rid of the multi multi management layers and company structures maybe they could actually breakeven.!

£12.30 to £12.71 to £12.25 within the space of 15 minutes, and then slowly moving back up again.

Incredible to watch the price flicker so quickly on the screen.!

In 33 minutes, 30 minutes after US opening is when we will see the true extent.

Sun.

and as I said, the bigger the jump up, the bigger the drop it would seem.

We jumped 2% in 2 minutes, and dropped 3% in two minutes straight afterwards.

The results are good, but not spectacular, which is a shame.

We are still making a loss, which is incredible to believe when we have 100%+ capacity.

I have just noticed something.

Shorts have gone from 12% to 11% to 9.79% within the last couple of weeks.
