AMR: Bull or Bear?
American Airlines Will Be Among the U.S. Airline Sector's Survivors
AMR
-10.07%
in
45 days
Filed under: AMR Corp (AMR), Stocks to Buy  As the price of oil goes, so goes the U.S. airline sector. Moreover, the prospect of moderating oil prices in 2010 and the fact that the worst travel sector conditions have already been priced into the stock are big reasons why I'm reiterating my buy rating for AMR Corp. (AMR), parent of American Airlines, and first recommended on June 22, 2009, at a price of $4.28.
And so far, the AMR call is paying off: If you bought AMR in June, you're up an impressive 90%. If not, don't fret: there's more upside ahead. <><>Continue reading <>American Airlines Will Be Am...

Tom Lydon of ETF Trends reported today that Claymore is expected to launch the first Airline ETF in early 2009, which will contain 26 passenger airlines with a mix of 70% domestic and 30% global companies. It remains to be seen if the Airline ETF will experience a similar fate as recently launched, narrow-focused transport funds, including the Claymore/Delta Global Shipping (SEA) and PowerShares Global Progressive Transport (PTRP) – which were launched this past fall and have attracted $9.6M and $1.8M in ne< />< /><><><>< />< />< />< /><><>...

The table presented above (click on the image for a full-screen view) represents my proposal for an inverse ETF tracking the 25 lowest-rated passenger airline companies from across the globe with market caps over $200 million. The airline industry has a history of bankruptcies and operating losses and currently faces skyrocketing fuel costs and economic uncertainties, resulting in less travel for pleasure and business. My short airline ETF utilizes a rating formula which factors in each company's market cap, revenues, and trailing 52-week stock price change in order to select...

When Crude Drops, AMR Will Fly
AMR

in

I have been watching in amazement while the price of crude strangles the world's economy at $139/bbl. There have been riots and strikes in Europe as gasoline and diesel approach $10/gal (U.S.). In the third world and developing countries, many people have to decide between driving or eating. <><>Crude is up 57% since February and doubled in a year. In early June it rose 13% in a single day. I haven't seen something move like this since the solar stocks in November, 2007 or the Nasdaq in March, 2000. But like those former parabolic critters in the rear view mirror, the current commodi...

<>With oil heading back down to $130, Jeff Macke would not call a top in oil and thinks the commodity will resume its upward climb.

Tim Seymour observes U.S. consumption is down, there are internal problems with XOM and the chart is unstable. John Najarian says a top can be called wh...

Jeff Macke said Wednesday was discouraging with less than hopeful news from the Fed and oil prices running amok on speculation rather than supply and demand.

Firm is revising their estimates and price targets lower for $105/bbl oil and Morgan Stanley’s most up to date economic forecasts. Looking forward, as their Bull/Bear/Base summary highlights, they expect significant volatility in airline equities. However, contrary to the consensus view, the firm would not initiate short positions at current prices. In fact, they believe airline equities are poised for a relief rally in the near-term and suggest that nimble investors position themselves accordingly across legacy airlines.They are still not recommending the space to long-term holders, but ar...

Oil priced have dropped well off their highs. Furthermore, after reviewing the 2-month chart of AMR, we can see an obvious down trend. But in the last week, it appears that the stock has broken this trend.
There is a double bottom and what appears to be a new uptrend, confirmed by price support on heavy volume. I would guess that AMR will break-out soon, if fundamentals continue to improve with oil coming off it's highs.
If this is a true recovery phase, I expect a large amount of accumulation as we progress into Spring / Early Summer. This is a great stock with $5 bil...
