Norwegian Cruise (NCLH), Royal Caribbean (RCL) Benefiting from Carnival (CCL) Woes

In the cruise sector, analysts at Jefferies said their checks show that that while ticket pricing continues to improve at Norwegian Cruise Lines (NASDAQ: NCLH) and Royal Caribbean (NYSE: RCL), close-in pricing at Carnival Corporation (NYSE: CCL) looks to have come under increasing pressure.

"We think NCLH and RCL could be benefiting from recent negative newsflow at CCL," analyst Ian Rennardsons said.

Jefferies maintained a Buy rating and $37 price target on RCL and a Hold and $37.50 price target on CCL.
