RCL in focus after unusual trading activity and 5-year return review. Royal Caribbean was among several consumer discretionary stocks flagged for unusual options activity in a recent session, suggesting some traders made notable bets on the cruise line. A separate look back showed that $1,000 invested in Royal Caribbean five years ago would have grown to a much larger sum, highlighting the strong run the stock has had over that period. The company's trailing P/E sits near 19, with shares trading below the upper end of their 52-week range. The combination of fresh options interest and a reminder of past gains may be why the name is drawing attention right now.
