Shares of cruise line stocks are trading lower after Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick recently suggested in an interview that those companies will have to start paying U.S. taxes.

Cruise stocks such as Carnival Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CCL#NYSE">CCL</a>), Royal Caribbean Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RCL#NYSE">RCL</a>) and Norwegian Cruise Line (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NCLH#NYSE">NCLH</a>) are <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/cruise-stocks">trading lower on Thursday</a>.
Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick suggested in an interview that the companies will have to start <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/02/43858129/as-trump-pushes-for-reciprocal-tariffs-vietnam-looks-to-increase-us-farm-product-imports-to-ease-trade-risks">paying U.S. taxes.</a>
What To Know: Lutnick&#8217;s remarks, made in an interview on <a href="https://www.nbcphiladelphia.com/news/business/money-report/cruise-stocks-tumble-after-commerce-secretary-lutnick-signals-tax-crackdown/4114422/">Fox News,</a> centered on the fact that many cruise ships are not paying U.S. taxes despite operating in U.S. waters. He pointed out that the cruise industry is exempt from paying taxes on foreign operations, including the sale of alcohol on board, and warned that this situation could change under the Trump administration. 
Despite the decline in share prices, analysts at Stifel Financial have described the market reaction as an overreaction. They highlighted that similar concerns have been raised multiple times in the past without leading to any significant policy changes. 
The cruise industry has long been classified under the cargo industry by the IRS, making any changes to the tax structure difficult to implement. Furthermore, analysts suggested that the cruise industry could move its corporate headquarters abroad to avoid potential tax implications.
While concerns about potential tax changes continue to affect the cruise stock sector, analysts are advising investors to view the current slump as an opportunity to buy into companies like Carnival, Royal Caribbean, and Norwegian. The cruise industry remains highly resilient and its tax structure remains largely unaffected by past political discussions on the matter.
Price Action: At the time of writing,<a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?new_user=False&amp;backend=google-oauth2"> Benzinga Pro</a> shows:

Shares of travel-related companies are trading lower as investors evaluate U.S. tariff concerns which may negatively impact consumer travel decisions.

It took only four sessions for the U.S. stock market to recover most of the losses triggered earlier in the week after the Chinese startup DeepSeek launched a more efficient and cost-effective AI platform than OpenAI&#8216;sChatGPT, sparking a sharp <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/01/43239042/magnificent-seven-broadcom-lose-nearly-900-billion-in-value-as-deepseek-sparks-ai-carnage-why-this-expert-is-still-bullish-on-us-tech">selloff on Wall Street.</a>

Yet resilient quarterly earnings reports and a significantly less hawkish Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell compared to his stance in December gave bulls the confidence to buy the dip.
As widely expected, the Federal Reserve left interest rates <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43316048/fed-holds-interest-rates-steady-halts-streak-of-consecutive-cuts-as-inflation-remains-elevated">unchanged at 4.25%–4.5%.</a> Surprisingly, Powell instilled greater hopes for potential rate cuts in the future, stating that monetary <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/01/43318325/a-different-powell-emerges-fed-chair-softens-hawkish-tone-on-interest-rates-bitcoin">policy remains "meaningfully restrictive."</a>
The scars remained visible for Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>), which lost about 15% in a week, with the chipmaker falling again on Friday following reports that U.S. plans to levy a 10% tariff on China.

President Donald Trump said again he plans to introduce 25% tariffs on imports from Mexico and Canada, though reports differed on when it would go into effect. 
On Friday, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said tariffs are coming Saturday.
&#8220;The President will implement 25% [tariffs] on Mexico, Canada and 10% on China,&#8221; Leavitt stated.

Proceeds from the offering of senior unsecured notes to be used to redeem $2.03 billion 10.375% senior priority notes due 2028&nbsp;
MIAMI, Jan. 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Carnival Corporation &amp; plc ((NYSE/LSE: CCL, NYSE:<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CUK#NYSE">CUK</a>) today announced that Carnival Corporation (the "Company") priced its private offering (the "Notes Offering") of $2.0 billion aggregate principal amount of 6.125% senior unsecured notes due 2033 (the "Notes"). The Company expects to use the net proceeds from the Notes Offering, together with cash on hand, to redeem the $2.03 billion 10.375% senior priority notes due 2028 (the "Senior Priority Notes") of Carnival Holdings (Bermuda) Limited ("Carnival Bermuda").
The Notes Offering and the redemption of the Senior Priority Notes are a continuation of the Company's strategy to reduce interest expense, simplify its capital structure and manage its future debt maturities. The Company expects to reduce net annual interest expense by over $80 million as a result of the transaction. In addition, the indenture that will govern the Notes is expected to have investment grade-style covenants.

Truist Securities Maintains Hold on Carnival, Raises Price Target to $30

Goldman Sachs analyst Lizzie Dove initiated coverage on Viking Holdings Ltd (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VIK#NYSE">VIK</a>) with a Neutral rating<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/VIK/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> and price forecast of $49.</a>
The analyst highlights that Viking Holdings&#8217; business model has strong appeal due to its high exposure to a growing demographic booking ahead at higher prices and its industry-leading category expansion, which boosts revenue growth.
However, due to the stock rising 73% since its IPO in May 2024 and a valuation premium compared to Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RCL#NYSE">RCL</a>), the analyst is looking for a better entry point.
The analyst also notes that Viking Holdings high booking visibility (70% booked for 2025) and its desire to maintain a cash cushion suggest less potential for near-term estimate revisions and share repurchases.

Dove points out that Viking Holdings&#8217; core demographic mainly consists of affluent US travelers aged 55+, a fast-growing group with the highest wealth, representing about 30% of the population <a href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/43065113">but over 70% of the wealth.</a>
However, the analyst notes that the company&#8217;s customer base is less new-to-cruise compared to its peers, which has been a major growth driver for the cruise industry over the past two years.
The analyst highlights that Royal Caribbean and Carnival Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CCL#NYSE">CCL</a>) have experienced double-digit growth in new-to-cruise passengers, with around half of their guests being millennials or younger.
While Viking Holdings has an appealing demographic and a strong pipeline of potential cruisers, Dove sees less opportunity for Viking Holdings to benefit from the new-to-cruise growth that has supported the broader industry.
Price Action: VIK shares are trading lower by 1.30% to $47.86 at last check Wednesday.

Viking Holdings' Premium Valuation Warrants A More Favorable Entry Point: Analyst

Goldman Sachs analyst Lizzie Dove <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/ccl/analyst-ratings">reiterated a price forecast of $35</a> and a Buy rating on the shares of Carnival Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CCL#NYSE">CCL</a>) and provided the following comments about its recently concluded investor event.
CCL&#8217;s strategy to develop private islands and exclusive destinations shows significant potential, with the capacity on its private islands expected to nearly double from 6.5 million to around 11 million passengers by 2030, said the analyst.
Management highlighted the considerable growth potential and expansion of its private island and exclusive destination strategy.
Management also pointed out that the growth will result in a daily capacity of approximately 95,000 guests by 2030, comparable to the throughput of Disney&#8216;s Magic Kingdom.
Despite concluding 2024 with an impressive 13% growth in new-to-cruise customers and a 10% increase in brand repeaters, CCL&#8217;s management remains confident in the long-term growth potential and the opportunity to &#8220;catch up&#8221; with certain brands that have not yet reached 2019 performance levels, noted the analyst.
CCL considers there is still substantial opportunity for continued brand momentum, even for some of its top-performing brands, which will drive further financial growth.
The company also noted that they have returned to solid bookings, with two-thirds of 2025&#8217;s capacity already booked by December, and all brands are priced higher year-over-year, noted the analyst.
With demand significantly outpacing CCL&#8217;s supply growth, management stressed that new ships are not essential to increase yields or stimulate additional demand.
Instead, the focus is on optimizing sales from existing ships rather than relying on the pricing boost from introducing a new vessel.
According to the analyst, the slower projected newbuild pace will not only create a favorable supply-demand environment but also provide <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance">room for further debt reduction.</a>
Management remains confident that CCL has a strong opportunity to improve its balance sheet and transfer debt to equity value, aiming for investment-grade metrics of approximately 3.5X by FY2026.
Price Action: CCL shares are trading lower by 0.25% at $25.54 at the last check Wednesday.
