mjsshipboy Posted March 12, 2009 #7 Share Posted March 12, 2009 OK, long term, RCL stock,. along with 90% of all stocks, have bombed, but if you bought at the year low of 540 and sold at today's high of 819, if you had a few thousand dollars worth of shares, you would be sitting pretty.

micruiser2002 Posted March 12, 2009 #8 Share Posted March 12, 2009 nolimits I would take my profits and run. The whole market is up, I am sure this is just runoff. RCL tends to every so often have some really big days. But just like everything else it tends to also reverse. I am waiting for $30 then I sell. Ha ha I will probably be gone by then. I am really getting tired of taking losses every year on my taxes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cjtwer Posted March 12, 2009 #9 Share Posted March 12, 2009 I'm kicking myself. I almost bought 100 shares yesterday so I could get a $100 OBC on our cruise next week. It's up over 30% in the past week and 17% today. That definitley qualifies as "taking off" in my book. If we get a pull back in the next couple days I might jump in.

cruisePRN Posted March 12, 2009 #10 Share Posted March 12, 2009 The whole market is up, The whole market is down from around 1400 to 7000 that's a 50% loss. That's the total picture not just a days worth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slotaddict Posted March 12, 2009 #11 Share Posted March 12, 2009 Since I bought it @$40 a share - I would hardly call it taking off. Fortunatley for some people they bought low - not my case. but I did not buy with the intent of making money - I bought it for the OBC only.

Rare BillOh Posted March 12, 2009 #13 Share Posted March 12, 2009 From $45 to $7.99, that's taking off alright :( That would suck, when it went from there to $15 I bought 100 shares so I could get the OBC for my trip next month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

klfhngr Posted March 12, 2009 Author #17 Share Posted March 12, 2009 Not trying to be a smart @$$, but is it wise to purchase the stock for OBC (instead of making money)? I don't get it....?!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MDSue Posted March 12, 2009 #20 Share Posted March 12, 2009 If one bought stock at RCI's lows, you could completely make your investment back in as few as 6 [7day] cruises if they continue to offer stockholder benefits. For those who bought at a much higher price aren't as fortunate. I think the stock market is a crapshoot right now. I think it could be an extremely good buy if the stock market recovers or it continue to plummet- who really knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TEXASMUNK Posted March 12, 2009 #21 Share Posted March 12, 2009 called my Broker on Monday, bought more....he said....good buy! RCI, if they scrapped all their ships, sold the steel and the office furniture at HQ, it was worth more than the stock low. Low price a product of "Hope and Change" Washington is HOPING all we will have left is change...then they can step in and "save" us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nolimits Posted March 13, 2009 #23 Share Posted March 13, 2009 OBC is not a reason to buy stock but 100 shares at 6$ knowing you had two trips booked is.I did a 5day and 7 day =150 obc thats 25% dividend .That is a good sound reason up+2$ is even better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RCI, if they scrapped all their ships, sold the steel and the office furniture at HQ, it was worth more than the stock low. Maybe, but they'd still have a fairly sizable debt to pay off from financing the construction of Oasis..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Gay Cruiser Posted March 13, 2009 #25 Share Posted March 13, 2009 I heard rumors they are not going to offer it as a "perk" much longer. I too bought at 40.00 damn! Of course I bought AOL at 100.00 once. I have enough for carry over losses I need to live to be 190 years old! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
