Going back up, need to figure this out soon! I also used TD Ameritrade for the first time yesterday to buy my CCL stock. After you set up your account and add your money, In the search box type CCL the enter. That will open up a page that says BUY / SELL. Click buy and a new box will open at the bottom, fill the area in and then your review your order and that's it. Good luck. Link to post Share on other sites

You could try to call their 800 number for new accounts, 1-800-645-7830. It is supposed to be available 24/7. Link to post Share on other sites

Fellow Bronco fan, I sold on the first 1000 point drop lost 5-6% and am happy with my decision. I can always buy on the way up. I think today was an anomaly where investors were making major low buys. I am not a day trader and never though of the stock market in terms of luck. One thing for sure the tiny interest will continue without worry. I will definitely get back in when this mess is contained Link to post Share on other sites

bury me at sea Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 6 hours ago, BrianMD said: I was doing the same thing as I saw the price racing from $20.20 up to $23.00. Gonna hold off for now but I think I have it figured out. I too am waiting. I want to see the low twenties hold, as I have said since this thread started. I am thrilled it didn't break into the teens. Link to post Share on other sites
mnp75 Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 I was able to pick up 140 shares today @ $20.65. Now if can just hold for awhile and then go up, I'll be set! Link to post Share on other sites

n6uqqq Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 There is talk of cutting the cruise lines bond ratings. That might hurt the stock further. Link to post Share on other sites

Crusin Hogs Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 If you are buying the stock (100) shares just for the obc ,,Do what I did ,I bought 200 shares at 22.25 , Once it reaches 45-50 a share again I will sell 100 shares ,get all my $$ back that I invested today ,and Keep the remaining 100 shares ,free for OBC for life Link to post Share on other sites

Looks, looks like still hovering around 23.50 now Who knows what will happen in the short term? I bought mine to hold onto for a long time. Good dividend paying stock ( for now) and bought at a very low price. This time last year the price was around 57 dollars. I am holding my 250 shares in my IRA once I found out I could buy individual stocks. Link to post Share on other sites

ALWAYS CRUZIN Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 Got another 100 today at $20.50 Now I have 300 and my wife has 300 shares. We will now sit on it for a year or two and see what happens. How does the dividends work now? When I had only 100 shares it was $50.00 I think each quarter. Link to post Share on other sites
Floriduh Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 I think the terms "long term" and "short term" are very relative to some people. We buy stocks that give high dividends and will pass them on to the next generation. The BP stock I have pays me almost $3000 a year. It has been in our family for 3 generations. Throw in some Disney, P&G and now Carnival at a great price. These stocks have been paying our family for up to 40 years. That is long term. Link to post Share on other sites

Mallow Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 I would guess it is going to drop harder at the opening due to Princess cancelling all cruises for 60 days. I am not sure where the bottom is going to be at this point. Link to post Share on other sites

five. Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 13 hours ago, RjayB said: Assuming 7-day cruises, the max would be 52 times per year. I know you're joking. But on our most recent cruise, there was a couple that were on 18 B2B cruises in a row. It was a "retirement gift" to themselves. I wonder what the record is. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Stick93 Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 I can see them stopping the OBC for a while as a way to raise revenue - this is not sustainable much longer. I want to buy some stock but where is bottom?? Cannot believe that one virus could do all this. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
