Royal Cariibbean stock... insider purchases
 

RCL stock has been on a roller-coaster and until recently, most of the
progress has been down. On March 3, it hit $5.63 cents a share at one
point.

In late February, Bariera Chico (one of the officers of RCL) bought 14,500
shares at $6.44 and another 10,000 shares at $6

I like it when insiders buy shares in their own company. It shows that they
have some faith in the future and they aren't afraid to put their money
where their mouth is.

This morning, RCL is trading around $7 a share.

To add some information.... today RCL closed at $8 a share, up $1.15 for the
day. Carnival Corp also had a good day, closing at $20.74 a share, up
$1.07

And lest some of the conspiracy peeps out there get their panties in a wad,
I fully and freely disclose that I own stock in both companies. Oh... and
I sell cruises so I have a vested interest in seeing these companies do
well. And any post made by me was made freely and without compensation in
cash, goods or services from any cruise line. And my post should not be
construed to mean that I am encouraging anyone to buy or sell stock in any
cruise line. And this post does not contain any forward-looking
projections, suppositions, assumptions or factual prognostications other
than my personal, unsolicited opinion which may or may not have value to
prospective investors, alive or dead.

Perhaps. It is also a prerequisite of showing faith, not like they have
a great deal of choice in the matter. Your view is a naive one.

And stock buy back is a common method to help fend off hostile
takeovers. But I agree of course with your underlying premise -- they
have faith in their industry which is good to see.

Now if they could talk to the Chinese about t-bills that'd be great, lol...
