This summary was created by AI, based on 20 opinions in the last 12 months.

Air Canada (AC-T) has garnered mixed reviews from experts, reflecting the volatility and unpredictability of the airline industry. Several analysts emphasize its potential for long-term gains, citing a strong recovery in passenger demand and strategic international routes as positive indicators. However, concerns persist regarding the impact of high fuel prices, geopolitical tensions, and labor disputes. While some see significant upside potential due to its current valuation being lower than historical norms and its U.S. counterparts, others express skepticism about its operational efficiency and competitive standing. The recent announcements of direct international routes and a growing cash reserve position contribute to a cautiously optimistic outlook, yet analysts urge vigilance due to the cyclical nature and inherent risks within the airline sector.

Billy Kawasaki’s Insights - Billy’s most-liked answers from 5i Research. Recovery pains are expected but there are higher prices and pent up demand that will be tailwinds for Air Canada. Planes are becoming full and prices are up. A decent hold with a 2 year horizon at least. Unlock Premium - Try 5i Free

Whippy. Balance sheet problem. Variant is not helping. Time to buy a stock is when no one's paying attention. If you believe that the world will return to normal, trading at 9.9x on 2023 numbers. Not a buy and hold forever. More of a cyclical trade.

If you are a trader, you could sell some. If you are an investor, then you could wait for strength and lighten up there. Would add exposure on weakness. Could see a 10% pull back if things go south for the next few months.

It's done well, but she doesn't buy airlines, because they're cyclical and costs lie beyond their control, namely fuel. If you've done well, then transition into a growth sector like tech. AC is in a cyclical growth sector.

Stock has priced in a rapid recovery and demand, and he's not so sure it will be that quick. Border isn't really open with the US. Lingering spectre of quarantines. People will be travel wary for a little while. Chance of getting back to pre-pandemic profitability is not likely for 3-4 years. On federal life support, and he doesn't like investing in companies that need bailouts, plus the government will be meddling in its operations.

There may be a huge pent up demand for air travel, but the business traveller will be slow to come back. AC-T shares are a long way from being cheap. He thinks there is a lot of balance sheet re-building to do. (Analysts’ price target is $29.00)

He's cautious on airline stocks. Misconception that if the stock is down a lot, it's undervalued, and there's a lot of catch-up. He's positive on the reopening. But the enterprise value of the business is back to pre-pandemic highs. Issued a lot of debt and equity, resulting in an expensive valuation. Look elsewhere, perhaps to aerospace.

There is tremendous speculation in the airline names in general. It is part of the noise factor. Will continue to see lots of it. If you think the airlines are going to normalize, buy the dips around the lows of the previous months.

She doesn't typically buy the sector, as there are a lot of costs they can't control. Return to air travel is probably already baked in. She wouldn't recommend getting in at this price point of $28. It's more of a trading vehicle; you have to watch it. Potential fine of 25M is not impacting the stock price.

It is still 40% off its pre-COVID high. They now have good bookings and load factors. Flights will continue to be added to the market. Business travel is a bit more of a question mark. She thinks it will catch on again. They may still be able to cut costs and get profitability back to pre-COVID levels before traffic has fully returned.

Now expect peak debt to be in Q4. Higher fuel is also weighing on their margins. Do not expect an EBIDTA recovery until 2024. Not profitable for a while. Very speculative. A balance sheet issue. Very cyclical. May be too much optimism at these levels. A trading stock.
