Carnival Corporation (CCL) has regained the smile at the end of the week, managing well to leave behind Thursday’s negative price action and rebounding to the vicinity of the key $20.00 mark per share, up around 10% at the time of writing.

In fact, ACB is markedly higher in line with the rest of the US markets in a context of improved sentiment in the riskier assets. It is worth recalling that US markets had their worst session on Thursday since mid-March on renewed fears of a second wave of contagion from COVID-19, while the sour mood at the FOMC meeting on Wednesday also added to the deteriorated scenario.

NYSE: CCL firmer and targeting $20.00 and above

CCL is navigating fresh 2-day highs and approaches the key barrier at $20.00, just ahead of the 100-day SMA at $22.89.

At the moment, CCL is gaining 13.25% at $19.75 and faces the next up barrier at $22.89 (100-day SMA) followed by $25.28 (monthly high Jun.8) and then $29.87 (50% Fibo retracement of the 2020 drop). On the flip side, a breach of $16.75 (low Jun.11) would aim for $15.00 (low May 22) and finally $14.37 (55-day SMA).
