Citi Ends Royal Caribbean Catalyst Watch, Keeps Buy Rating

Citi maintained its $362 price target after Royal Caribbean Group shares rose 17% over the preceding week.

The dual-fuel cruise ship is planned for Caribbean service and will become MSC Cruises’ fifth vessel capable of operating on LNG.

The USD 3 billion investment would add 20 resorts to Royal Caribbean’s portfolio, subject to approvals and closing conditions.

The port expects about 165,000 passengers, with luxury and premium operators prominent in the autumn schedule.
