In the Q3 2020 Investor Letter, L1 Capital International Fund highlighted a few stocks and Booking Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:BKNG) is one of them. Booking Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:BKNG) offers online travel and related services. In the last one year, Booking Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:BKNG) stock gained 7.3% and on January 7th it had a closing price of $2,239.85. Here is what L1 Capital International Fund said:
“Booking Holdings owns the world’s largest online travel agent (OTA), Booking.com. Travel has been upended by COVID‑19. Increased domestic travel will partially offset reduced international travel but it will take time before the travel sector returns to a more normal environment. Booking continues to invest in growth initiatives while adjusting its cost base to current demand and we are confident Booking’s position will strengthen relative to its much more challenged competitors.”
