Why Cruise Stocks Keep Going Down

Close, but no cigar.

In early trading Friday, stock markets attempted to make a comeback and end a down week on an up note. But after turning briefly green in the morning hours, here we are in the late afternoon -- 3 p.m. ET, an hour from the closing bell -- and all the major stock indices are in the red again.

Cruise line stocks number among the bigger decliners today, with shares of Carnival (NYSE: CCL) off 5.4%, Royal Caribbean (NYSE: RCL) falling 5.6%, and Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings (NYSE: NCLH) leading the sector lower with a 6% loss.
