I shorted Royal Caribbean on the way down and am now buying shares. I figure most of the impact is priced in, I am a long hold on them now and we will see where it shakes out when it is all over. They have an extremely loyal customer base.

I tend to see it in the same light. I think just in time and inventory not sitting on shelves has a lot to do with it. There is no buffer to soften the shock anymore. Things are made, and shipped as the demand is happening or as close to th
