DAL: Bull or Bear?
Stock to avoid #1 -- Delta Airlines (DAL)
DAL
-85.03%
in
207 days
Filed under: Oil, Delta Air Lines (DAL), Stocks to Sell  I take my absolute return approach to a deeper level by periodically buying and selling positions during the year. In late February, I suggested that investors cover the short position of Delta Airlines (NYSE: DAL) at $6.35 per share.
<>In my last update of the stocks on this list, I suggested that I would still be a seller of Delta. Shares of Delta did indeed lose value over the last three months. This move coincided with a blast in oil prices. Airlines are already struggling with a weak economy and excess capacity. Rising jet fuel prices...

 "If there’s one sector that stands to benefit handsomely from a further slide in oil or, at least, a moderation in crude’s rally: the airlines," explains energy sector expert Elliott Gue.
 In The Energy Strategist, he says, "Airlines may make a terrible long-term investment but can be an outstanding short-term trade." Here he looks at Delta Air Lines (NYSE: DAL) and, for the even more speculatively-inclined, US Airways (NYSE: LCC). <>"Some investors will rightfully cringe from any mention of this sector; after all, the airlines have consistently lost money throughout their post...

Sell and Short Recommendations for a Bearish Market
DAL
-113.07%
in
580 days
Investors are getting bearish these days, which comes as a surprise to me, since I'm used to being in the minority. I was a bear when I first took the leap from mutual funds and started trading stocks in 1999, and am a bear still. I wish I'd turned bullish for a couple of years at what I consider to be the large bear market recovery of 2003-2006, but I didn't. However, since I was (and still am) bullish on commodities since around the same time frame, I can't complain about my returns over the period. <>This spring, I was more bearish than usual, which is why I brought you my id...

Delta-Northwest Merger Should Provide Synergies, But Complications May Arise
DAL
+27.55%
in
664 days
4/15 - Goldman Sachs - "We are not surprised by the nature or timing of this well-telegraphed merger between NWA and DAL. The announced transaction suggests that the merged companies could achieve synergy savings of $900m-$1b from the optimization of the combined airline’s fleet and an expanded global network plus overhead savings – a level that if achieved would offset our combined loss estimate for the 2 airlines in 2009 of $915m. The merger requires DoJ approval which the airlines expect to receive by the end of the year."
"But consolidation in any industry – not least the airline indus...

DAL selling off

(closed on 04/21/08)
DAL is selling off (14.22%) on the news of its merger with NWA. The announcement was made after market close yesterday, so I was unable to sell off higher bought shares on the anticipated spike. DAL states the deal should close in 2008, and the combined airline will be able to turn a profit in 2009 even with oil at these prices. I'm going to hold.

DAL: Taking the Money and Running From Delta

Last September I was bearish on Delta Airlines (DAL), saying “How quickly we get from something that looks enticing to something that looks like it came out of bankruptcy five months ago. Which, of course, it did. Bottom line, if you want to take a flier on an airline, I’d stick with one of the short squeeze plays. The majors still look like they can cause a major league stomachache.” <> Earlier this month, I noted that I should learn to take the money and run , as three of my previously correct bearish calls had been bolstered by takeover rumors. With Delta now solidly bac...
