HOLD

Has gone through a corrective period. Had an uptrend, which gets violated in April, but doesn't go down that much. Then went into a sideways trading pattern, which is very bullish. It has now broken out, so it is off and running. If you're thinking of buying, hope that it comes back down and tests.

COMMENT

Had stellar numbers in August with their highest capacity numbers. It's at the top in Canada for their efficiencies. If you are concerned about recession, it will be the marginal player that does not hop on the plane, but right now very solid numbers. Pr

TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Nov 22/06. Up 16.2%.) One of the few airlines that makes investment sense. They have built value with time. Low cost airline with non-unionized stock holdings workforce.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Sept 15/06. Up 45.7%.) Starting to get bullish congestion. Has started trading sideways. Would be out of it for the time being. Could be creating a base for an upward move.

BUY

Likes this airline. A very good alternate in Canada. Load factors have been very high lately. Adding routes and aircraft. Have a lot of room to grow.

TOP PICK

High fuel costs are a bit of a dent for the airlines but is not concerned. This is the best airline in North America. Super cheap at 14 X this year's earnings and 10 X next.

DON'T BUY

Airlines are selling out seats; load factors are rising and the industry is expanding worldwide. On the other hand, airlines have been a sinkhole for investors for decades. High fuel costs. Expects rising maintenance costs.

SELL

Doesn't like the airline space. If they can't make tons of money here, when you can they?

TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Nov 22/06. Up 18.3%.) Low-cost operator. Sustainable competitive advantage. Paying down debt. Good price.

DON'T BUY

If you were going to buy an airline Westjet is good, however he doesn't buy airlines. They don't like airlines as investments.

BUY

The stock is going up at the same time that the market is going up, which is a good sign. Went sideways for a while and now it is going up again.

BUY

Really has a niche. Likes the culture of the company.

TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jan 4/07. Down 3.1%.) At these levels, it's a table-pounding Buy at 11 X 08 earnings per share. Would argue that it is the best airline in North America.

BUY

A very well managed company. We are in a period of growth in the airline industry. They have absorbed the fuel problems. There’s a whole generation of new and efficient jets coming out.

HOLD

Friendly, wonderful airline to travel on. Doing very well and setting up new relationships.
