Best Stock to Buy Right Now: Carnival vs. Disney
Leisure and entertainment giants Carnival (NYSE: CCL) and The Walt Disney Company (NYSE: DIS) offer an abundance of options for anyone thinking about taking a vacation this summer. The two companies can also represent compelling investments, with both stocks gaining momentum in recent months. Can the rally keep going? Let's discuss whether shares of Carnival or Disney are the best buy for your portfolio right now. The case for Carnival stock As the world's largest cruise line operator, Carnival is capitalizing on an industry renaissance, with data suggesting that this form of vacation travel is more popular than ever. Efforts to optimize its fleet and enhance financial efficiency are paying off, with the company posting multiple operating records. In the first quarter (for the period ended Feb. 28), Carnival management noted "incredibly strong demand," which helped results outperform prior guidance. Revenue of $5.8 billion increased 7.5% year over year, fueled by climbing capacity and higher pricing. Carnival ended the quarter with $7.3 billion in customer deposits for future voyages, surpassing last year's $7 billion record. Even more impressive has been Carnival's ability to control costs, translating into surging profitability. Adjusted earnings per share (EPS) of $0.13 reversed a loss of $0.14 in the prior-year quarter, underscoring the company's newfound financial consistency. The expectation is for these trends to continue. The launch of Celebration Key, a new private island destination opening in July, and the delivery of three new ships by 2028 should drive further growth. Carnival is guiding for full-year EPS of $1.83, representing $2.5 billion in adjusted net income and marking a 29% increase from 2024's result. The outlook is encouraging as it should allow the company to improve its balance sheet. The current total debt position of $27 billion is favorably down $4 billion over the past year. Deleveraging should support a higher valuation for Carnival stock, which trades at just 13 times its 2025 EPS forecast as a forward price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio, notably at a large discount to Disney stock's forward P/E of 20. The attraction of Carnival as an investment is its combination of compelling value and growth potential. Investors confident that Carnival is sailing in the right direction have plenty of reasons to own the stock for the long run. CCL PE Ratio (Forward) data by YCharts. The case for Disney stock The last few years have been far from a fairytale for Disney shareholders, as the media giant has navigated numerous challenges. Despite record results from its experiences segment that includes the theme park empire and the growing cruise line business, the entertainment business has been forced to contend with volatile box office trends and a reset of expectations in streaming. Disney stock is down 7% over the past five years, marking a major underperformance compared to the broader market. Yet, the latest trends point to what may finally be the start of a sustained comeback. In Disney's fiscal Q2 (for the period ended March 29), revenue increased 7% year over year while adjusted EPS surged 20%. The big story was the robust momentum from the streaming offerings where Disney+ added 1.4 million customers during the quarter, brushing aside concerns that recent price hikes would push subscribers away. Hulu and the ESPN digital properties have also been growth drivers, with Wall Street cheering Disney's efforts to bundle packages. Disney is targeting EPS of $5.75 for fiscal 2025, an increase of 16% from last year, with management projecting optimism that the company's strategic initiatives are gaining traction. Compared to Carnival, Disney stock benefits from its more diversified profile backed by a globally recognized brand. Ultimately, investors who believe the company is just getting started on its plan to dominate streaming media have a great reason to buy the stock today for a diversified portfolio. Verdict: Carnival is my pick Picking between Carnival and Disney as the better stock to buy is tough, as I'm bullish on both and predict each will deliver positive returns in the second half of the year. If forced to pick just one, I predict Carnival stock will outperform on the upside. In my view, Carnival's growth story is still underappreciated by the market, which means its stock may be undervalued and could be poised to break out higher.

Starbucks (SBUX) Unveils New AI Assistant for Baristas That's Powered by Microsoft
Coffee making is going high tech. Confident Investing Starts Here: Easily unpack a company's performance with TipRanks' new KPI Data for smart investment decisions Receive undervalued, market resilient stocks right to your inbox with TipRanks' Smart Value Newsletter Starbucks (SBUX) is rolling out a new generative artificial intelligence (AI) assistant for its coffee baristas that's powered by Microsoft (MSFT) Azure's OpenAI platform. The AI assistant will initially be deployed in a trial at 35 Starbucks locations in the U.S. as part of a strategy to simplify baristas' jobs and speed-up service at the company's coffee shops. The global coffee chain showed off the new technology to more than 14,000 North American store managers at an event held in Las Vegas, Nevada on June 10. A broader rollout of what Starbucks is calling the 'Green Dot Assist' platform across the U.S. and Canada is slated to begin this autumn. News of the AI assistant comes as Starbucks tries to revive its sluggish sales under new CEO Brian Niccol. Improved Service Niccol has set a goal of improving Starbucks' service times to four minutes per order. The hope is that quick, accurate answers to barista questions will help speed-up service and improve quality at Starbucks locations. With the AI assistant, Starbucks' baristas will be able to use a tablet to get answers to questions such as how to make an iced espresso and troubleshoot equipment errors. As the AI assistant evolves, Starbucks has even bigger plans for its use, including automatically creating a ticket with information technology (IT) for equipment issues. Starbucks is expanding its relationship with Microsoft about a year after the tech giant's CEO Satya Nadella stepped down from Starbucks' board of directors. SBUX stock has risen 2% this year. Is SBUX Stock a Buy? The stock of Starbucks has a consensus Moderate Buy rating among 23 Wall Street analysts. That rating is based on 12 Buy and 11 Hold recommendations issued in the last three months. The average SBUX price target of $93.25 implies 1.99% upside from current levels.
