All,

the part of Carnival's recent press release that is questionable to me is that they feel Q2 will be weaker than prior year, but that the second half of the year will be strong enough to allow them hit EPS of $1.79 to $1.83.

If Carnival can hit EPS of $1.79 we're trading at a forward PE of 12 right now, which I'm entirely comfortable with, as should be the analysts. I think it's the analysis of the last half of the year which leaves the question marks.

Should we buy more? I hate buying falling knives - usually means the whole story is not out - but this looks pretty good for long term buy, no?

Here are a couple of stories I'm referencing.
