RCL

In the past six months, Royal Caribbean Group's stock has been influenced by exceeding first-quarter 2026 expectations due to favorable revenue, lower costs, and strong joint venture performance, following a record-breaking "Wave booking season" in early 2026. Consequently, the company increased its full-year 2026 adjusted EPS guidance, declared a dividend, and confirmed orders for new Icon Class ships. Bookings for Mediterranean and West Coast of Mexico itineraries briefly moderated in March and early April 2026 due to geopolitical developments, but have since rebounded. As of May 8, 2026, RCL's stock price was $275.24, reflecting an 18.00% increase over the past 12 months, though it was down 1.44% over the preceding 30 days.
