Asartara,

Jesus mate you still hear your shirt must be absolutely killing uou mate ha ha ha . You've been short since the mid 50's . Burn fella burn 🤣🤣🤣

Thanks Smooth, I think you're right this has got a long way to go. I just had too much skin in the game to risk losing all that profit tomorrow morning if the results don't quite match up to market expectations.

Good luck mate.

Holden, great call for 95p by 4pm you were spot on.

Now we've closed I just want to wish you all the very best of luck for tomorrow. Jumbo, Smooth and all the other regular posters I really hope they smash the results and you get your just rewards. Amazing recovery today after yesterday. So much so I sold just before the close for 95.59p. I'd been in for the past few months since the low 50's with a large holding (large for me anyway) of well over 100,000 shares so I've bailed out and took my largest profit from a single trade to date. For me it was just too much of a risk holding going into tomorrow. Anyway, I'll be keeping an eye on results and as I say I sincerely hope you all have a great day tomorrow and shorters burn!

Cheers guys

Its a chunky buy that's for sure!

They opened a similar short on Saga at 96p. It's now £1.41

It's far from being already priced in this has got a long way to run yet. If you disagree and you're happy with your profit then cash out but I think you'll be kicking yourself this time next week. Good luck whatever you decide.

Kaz,

The board has assured key investors that they will hit the revised targets so for me the reward outweighs the risk. If I was sitting on a short position right now I'd be sweating lol.

Only 22,000 shares? You do make me laugh Bot. It'll come good in the end you know that already. I meant to ask did you buy any CABP in the end? They're up 62% in the past month. Results are out on Tuesday and I'm hoping for a further 30% at least.

Bot,

I thought you was a brave man going all in a couple of hours before the data was released but it could have gone either way mate. You can laugh about it when she hits £15.

If the share price is determined by supply and demand and this site says twice as many shares have been bought today than sold, how does the share price go down? Can anyone explain please?

Vol. Sold 405,181

Vol. Bought 844,859

Willis,

That's the beauty and attraction of trading Carnival. It's so volatile it could be at £20 this time next month and equally it could be £9.

My last trade was 8000 shares bought at just under £10 and sold at £13 within a few weeks. I was more than happy. Before that I'd traded 12,000 shares from £6 all the way upto where we are now. Quite happy to sit it out for a while now and see where it goes. If it drops I'll probably buy in again but I'm not sat here hoping it falls. Also If it rises then congratulations to all holders that hopefully make shed loads of money. Won't be any tears from me though mate, there's thousands of other stocks out there to trade.

"CAB Payments pledges to hit revised target after stock plunge -investor

Summary

CAB plans January trading update -investor

CAB has been "reaching out" to investors -source

"We recognise that this is going to take time" -CAB

CAB Payments (CABP.L), whose stock plunged more than 70% last month after a profit warning, has pledged to some investors it will hit a revised 2023 revenue target and publish a trading update in January, as the cross-border payments processor fights to win back market trust.

Oliver Brown, a fund manager at R.C. Brown and a former top-20 investor in the newly-listed company, said he was called by a senior CAB executive on Friday, who was "very contrite" in the wake of last month's profit warning.

"CAB are absolutely adamant that they are not going to have another profit warning (in 2023)," Brown said, but added it could take years to rebuild market trust and the company was planning a market update in January."

Quite the gamble holding onto short positions on the 16th when the board has assured investors that they'll hit the revised targets.

Ken that sounds like a great adventure and definitely not for the faint hearted!

Bot it's always the way mate. You might have dodged a bullet though let's see how the market reacts to the latest jobs data when NY opens shortly. I'm thinking we could see a retrace back to mid £10's before the next push up. Only my opinion and I'm quite often very wrong. Good luck whatever you choose.

Scalp, For once I timed it right and I sold at £13.00. I'm not so sure we'll see £20 any time soon. Probably see a 2-3% rise tomorrow but not sure about the short to medium term.

Argh ok. I had no idea it's only just showed in my feed.

Someone wants to let Wall St know CCL received an analyst upgrade today!

"Macquarie has raised its Carnival Corp. CCL price target to $22 from $17, citing the cruise operator’s strong fourth-quarter results last month. The company’s results “were strong across major metrics and booking strength with higher-than-expected pricing, but costs were sticky,” wrote Macquarie analyst Paul Golding, in the note. The target price raise reflects normalized FY25 operations and stable pricing, with fewer total cost headwinds and easing fuel prices, according to Golding. Carnival’s stock has risen 130% in the last 12 months, outpacing the S&P 500 index’s SPX gain of 24.2%."

Bot,

Cab Payments (CABP) could still be worth a look. Up over 40% in the last month and still it's got a massive upside imho. Results are due out Jan 16th.

Every time asartara tries to deramp the SP goes up! I'd just close my short mate and cut your losses if I was you we're gonna be over £1 soon.

Your posts do make me laugh though lol.

"RE: Overvalued20 Dec 2023 12:16

Fair value for CABP is about 20p"

"Overvalued21 Dec 2023 23:04 Target price for CABP is 30p"

"RE: OvervaluedToday 10:58 Target Price 50p"

Could have something to do with the current slide. Seems to be a lot of negativity towards CCL in current news.
