The Icon of the Seas, set to sail in January, is five times the size of the Titanic. If it did strike ice, Royal Caribbean says it has enough lifeboats and rafts for everyone on board. Turns out it is very rare for a cruise ship today to strike an iceberg, but it's not impossible. Cruise ships rely on radar technology and satellite monitoring to avoid collisions with icebergs. Thankfully cruise ships today are also better prepared for disaster.

These are the cruise ships with the best and worst sanitation report cards in 2023 so far. There's nothing like a stomach virus to ruin your vacation, as hundreds of cruise ship passengers have unfortunately learned this year. "People often associate cruise ships with acute gastrointestinal illnesses such as norovirus, but acute gastrointestinal illness is relatively infrequent on cruise ships," the CDC explains on its website. In the past 10 years, only three other cruise ships have received sanitation scores below 70, CDC records show. These are the cruise ships with the highest and lowest sanitation scores so far this year:The 15 cruise ships with perfect scores of 100The majority of cruise ships have received CDC sanitation scores in the high nineties this year.

Only a handful of companies are responsible for most of the index's gains thus far, including the likes of Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA ), Meta (NASDAQ: META ) and Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA ). The good news is market breadth improved beginning in late May and leadership has expanded to include cyclical sectors and industries. Still, these firms have become so expensive relative to the broader market that some analysts have recently begun downgrading them.

Many top performers in the stock market for the first half of this year were exactly what you would expect, if you’ve been following the news. Tesla, the electric vehicle champion, wasn’t far behind.
