Royal Caribbean Cruises stock upgraded to Strong Buy Candidate.
(Updated on Jun 25, 2024)
The Royal Caribbean Cruises stock price gained 4.02% on the last trading day (Tuesday, 25th Jun 2024), rising from $154.52 to $160.73. It has now gained 3 days in a row. It will be exciting to see whether it manages to continue gaining or take a minor break for the next few days. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 4.98% from a day low at $154.01 to a day high of $161.68. The price has risen in 6 of the last 10 days and is up by 3.43% over the past 2 weeks. Volume has increased on the last day along with the price, which is a positive technical sign, and, in total, 1 million more shares were traded than the day before. In total, 3 million shares were bought and sold for approximately $531.84 million.
The stock lies in the upper part of a wide and strong rising trend in the short term, and this may normally pose a very good selling opportunity for the short-term trader as reaction back towards the lower part of the trend can be expected. A break-up at the top trend line at $164.16 will firstly indicate a stronger rate of rising. Given the current short-term trend, the stock is expected to rise 17.80% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $171.75 and $193.38 at the end of this 3-month period.
