Stockholder OBC benefit extended

[caribill]

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.

Good to see.

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.

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.

You are probably right - it just seems like the majority of shareholders because I spend time on websites like this one.

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."

Thanks, Bill..

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.

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.

How come you're getting $30 per quarter dividend while I only get $0.30? :)

Thanks for the reminder to submit my paperwork for our upcoming cruise.

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.

I calculate that I have received $1200 in OBC and the stock is up by $400. Nice to have in my IRA!

Is the Carnival stock OBC only valid for one cruise per year?
