The Airline Stocks Could Reach New Lows

Airlines around the world hope that the worst is past, but as Warren Buffett’s recent sale of the disclosure pointed out, not everyone is convinced that the travel industry spring to life in one or two quarters.

In addition, the airlines are now safe implementation of detachment in their fleets, the lowering of the capacity in terms of passengers and revenue into the indefinite future. The Plans of hiking rates in order to compensate for these lost seats could backfire, the report of a recovery that many smart people expect two or three years.

The airline stocks are near the lows of March right now, in spite of the strong bounces through the market of the universe, highlighting the weakness of demand. It is not surprising, because they were exceptionally low on the balance sheet of the crisis, pumping out years of profits in share buybacks and executive bonuses rather than build up reserves of cash, and businesses need government assistance to survive. In turn, this raises the rating for secondary offerings that will dilute the already depressed shares.

These poorly managed companies have the weakness of the market artists throughout the second half of the economic expansion, failing to reward the shareholders, so that any comments insisting on the fact that the group will return to the prior highs should be viewed with skepticism. More importantly, these questions can easily move to new lows, continuing a bear market that could persist for months or years.
