Down Over 29% in the Last Month, Is It Finally Time to Consider Carnival Cruise Stock?

Shares of Carnival (NYSE: CCL) (NYSE: CUK) are down almost 30% in the last month as Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis banned cruise ship operators from requiring proof of vaccination against COVID-19 from guests boarding ships in Florida. And a surge in coronavirus cases in the U.S. caused by the delta variant is giving some investors pause on their enthusiasm for a quick return of sailings.

Carnival has plans to go to sea with a large part of its fleet by November. After being cooped up at home for the better part of a year, folks are ready to experience entertainment away from home. It might be a little early, but it's nearing time for investors to consider Carnival stock.
