Andrew Didora’s rating is based on Carnival’s strategic positioning and financial outlook. Despite concerns over the Caribbean market’s capacity, Carnival’s diverse global portfolio provides a buffer, allowing it to mitigate regional risks. The company’s exposure to Europe, where it has a strong market share, has supported net yield growth, which is expected to continue into 2026.
Additionally, Carnival’s financial metrics, such as free cash flow generation and valuation, are favorable. The company’s 2026 earnings per share forecast remains robust, and the rebound in consumer spending, as evidenced by credit and debit card data, suggests healthy yield growth. These factors contribute to Didora’s confidence in maintaining a Buy rating for Carnival’s stock.
In another report released yesterday, TR | OpenAI – 4o also reiterated a Buy rating on the stock with a $29.00 price target.
