Air Canada has garnered mixed reviews from various experts. While some view it as a potential long-term investment with significant upside once current geopolitical and economic pressures are lifted, others express caution due to high operating costs and unpredictable market dynamics. The airline appears to be better positioned than its U.S. counterparts, benefiting from Canada's energy supply and expanding its global network with unique routes. Analysts note a potential for recovery, particularly if strikes are resolved and operations return to normal. However, experts also highlight the cyclical nature of the airline industry and advise waiting for more stable conditions before committing financially.

BUY
With lower oil prices they should have a better outlook for the quarter. However you are probably looking at declining numbers in terms of capacity utilization. Did a good job in moving up to more efficient aircraft and closing down routes that no longer made sense.
COMMENT
In the last quarter, they made a lot of money out of derivatives. Made a profit, but basically on hedging of fuel. Very solid company in this space. Have to do something with Ace Aviation, which is a big holding. Expect they will dividend it out and unwind the company. If the economy turns around, you could have a nice move.
COMMENT
Oil has a major impact on this stock. Their energy consumption was up $220 million. If you think oil is going to drop to $80, the stock will have good torque behind it.
DON'T BUY
This is a horrible industry. Even Westjet (WJA-T), which is a well-managed company, is not a stock she would buy. If oil should drop to $100, the stocks will have a good bounce.
BUY
When oil stocks move up, airline stocks tend to weaken. Outlook for the airline industry is pretty positive. For the short term, it is fine.
