Carnival Corporation (CCL) is fading Friday’s strong gains and is expected to open near the $18.00 mark on Monday, shedding around 10% amidst the continuation of the selling bias in the risk universe.

Indeed, coronavirus fears continue to hurt markets at the beginning of the week amidst rising concerns over the probability of a second wave of contagion. Also adding to the sour sentiment, infected cases in the US are no giving any signs of abating so far and are undermining at the same time any progress made so far towards the re-opening of the economy.

Against this backdrop, CCL is seen sharing the same fate as the rest of its peers in the travel and retail sectors.
