caribill Posted March 4, 2016 #1 Share Posted March 4, 2016 CCL Corp has extended the stockholder's OBC until sailings by July 31, 2017 that are booked by February 28, 2017. Normally this benefit is extended each year in early March and it has been again this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sayra Posted March 4, 2016 #5 Share Posted March 4, 2016 I wonder what it would do to stock prices if they ever discontinued the program. It's been a pretty good buy, but the only reason that I bought it was due to the onboard credit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been a pretty good buy, but the only reason that I bought it was due to the onboard credit.They'd go down slightly in the short term then probably bounce back. I'm betting the percentage of shareholders who own primarily for this benefit make up a very small percentage of total shareholders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are probably right - it just seems like the majority of shareholders because I spend time on websites like this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crystabel Posted March 5, 2016 #11 Share Posted March 5, 2016 Shareholders credit plus dividends make Carnival Corp. a very attractive holding. Wish I had bought my shares when I first started sailing Princess. "On January 14, 2016, Carnival Corporation & plc (NYSE/LSE: CCL; NYSE: CUK) announced a quarterly cash dividend of $0.30 (U.S.) per share. The dividend is payable on March 11, 2016, to shareholders of record on February 19, 2016." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thrak Posted March 6, 2016 #13 Share Posted March 6, 2016 The only reason I bought CCL is for the OBC. The $25 per quarter - now $30 per quarter - dividend is a nice bonus. The stock has gone up quite a bit since I purchased but I have no intention of selling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eaglecw Posted March 7, 2016 #14 Share Posted March 7, 2016 One of the best things I did was buy CCL stock when it down in the mid $20 range. Thank you Carnival Corporation for keeping the Shareholders credit coming. Keeps us coming back every year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How come you're getting $30 per quarter dividend while I only get $0.30? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruiser113 Posted March 7, 2016 #21 Share Posted March 7, 2016 (edited) How much obc do you get, is it fixed rate Depends on the length of the cruise 6 days or less $50 7-13 days $100 14 days or more $250 just noticed you are from UK 25 euro 6 days 50 euro 7-13 125 euro 4 or more Edited March 7, 2016 by cruiser113 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damiross Posted March 8, 2016 #22 Share Posted March 8, 2016 100 shares x $0.30 = $30.00 That sounds better! I'm use to seeing dividends quoted on a per-share basis. CCL has been doing good. I originally bought it to get the OBC but am keeping it because it's a good fit in my portfolio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muggo11 Posted March 8, 2016 #23 Share Posted March 8, 2016 I calculate that I have received $1200 in OBC and the stock is up by $400. Nice to have in my IRA! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
