		<description><![CDATA[Royal Caribbean (RCL), following the recent sinking of its peer cruise ship, we are cautious about the sector in the near term. This disaster shook the cruisers&#8217; confidence, thereby sharply reducing the booking volume. Additionally, the probable cannibalization of the existing fleet, lower visibility on a new class of ships that the company is designing and the expected increase in cost structure make us cautious. Hence, we downgrade the stock from Neutral to Underperform. Our six-month target price of $28.00 per share equates to about 13.7x our estimate for 2012. The target price implies an expected negative return of 8.7% over that period. Therefore, we recommend an Underperform rating on the shares.

		<description><![CDATA[Carnival Corporation (CCL) reported second quarter 2011 earnings of 26 cents per share, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 22 cents but deteriorating from 32 cents earned in the year-ago quarter. While the earnings were aided by better-than-expected net revenue yields in North America brands, persistent hikes in fuel prices, geo-political turmoil and the disaster in Japan were the dampeners. Moreover, bookings were soft in U.K. and Southern Europe. However, earnings also exceeded management&#8217;s guided range of 20 cents to 24 cents per share. Carnival’s second quarter total revenue increased 10.8% from the prior-year quarter to $3.6 billion, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $3.5 billion. On a constant currency basis, net revenue yields rose 2.3% from the prior-year quarter and were in line with management’s guidance range of 1.5% ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[by Alexander Moschina, Investment U Research Friday, October 29, 2010 It may surprise you to learn that cruise lines, Carnival (NYSE: CCL) and Royal Caribbean (NYSE: RCL) helped funnel $35 billion into the United States last year. With a record 13.44 million passengers hitting the high seas, it helped the cruise line industry to its fifth straight year of solid growth, despite the global recession. And according to the Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA), 2010 should go down as another blockbuster year. So what’s the story behind the headlines? Bigger Fleets… And a $17 Billion Injection into the U.S. Economy Why have cruises become so popular? Simple. The set price – which includes food, entertainment and lodging – is perfect for people on a budget. And appealing to this market ]]></description>
