Movement Alert|Norwegian Cruise Line Rises 5.02% in Regular Trading, Boosted by Citi Target Price Hike and Strait of Hormuz Reopening

Market Focus06-18

On June 18, Norwegian Cruise Line rose 5.02% in regular trading, trading at $20.83/share, with turnover of $120 million.

On the news front, Citi recently raised its target price on Norwegian Cruise Line from $21 to $25, maintaining a Buy rating. The upgrade was driven by the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, a critical oil shipping corridor, following a preliminary US-Iran agreement. The cruise industry stands to benefit directly as lower oil prices reduce operational fuel costs, while improved safety expectations for Middle East routes open new itinerary opportunities. Citi simultaneously raised target prices for Carnival to $37 and Royal Caribbean Cruises to $362.

Within the Hotels, Resorts & Cruise Lines sector, cruise stocks rallied broadly. Royal Caribbean Cruises rose 4.57%, Carnival gained 4.26%, Marriott added 1.48%, Hilton climbed 1.36%, and Booking Holdings edged up 0.97%, reflecting significant sector-wide momentum driven by the geopolitical catalyst.
