Recent Top Picks by Stockchase Research Editor Michael O'Reilly reflect an overall bullish trend, with several recommendations to adjust stop-loss levels, indicating confidence in the stock's performance. While some experts highlight potential challenges, including anticipated losses in upcoming reports and supply chain issues related to Boeing's aircraft deliveries, the momentum generated by rising air travel demand and substantial cash reserves offers a silver lining.

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly

As US air travel breaks all time records, we select UAL as a TOP PICK.  The FAA just cleared them to continue expansion plans following the recent spat of flight mishaps.  It trades at 6x earnings, under 2x book and supports a 33% ROE.  Cash reserves are growing, while debt is aggressively retired.  We recommend setting a stop-loss at $41, looking to achieve $68 -- upside potential of 30%.  Yield 0% 

(Analysts’ price target is $68.67)
DON'T BUY

They report tomorrow and probably will report a loss. Delta which he also owns looks a lot better technically. It comes down to Boeing's delays in delivering 737 Max's.

PARTIAL SELL

Shares have rallied since last fall, so take profits. But remember that all airlines are trades.

BUY

Expects a super Christmas season for the airlines.

DON'T BUY

Airlines are destroyers of wealth. Rent, but don't own an airline sock. Going back to 2006, UAL's total return is 8%, and down over 50% in the last 5 years. Same with their peers.

TOP PICK

We reiterate UAL as a TOP PICK.  The company just announced it has purchased land in Denver to expand its pilot training centre.  It is already Denver's largest employer, operation 400 flights daily from there.  Quarterly cash flow is growing as debt is retired.  It trades at 6x earnings, 2.2x book and supports a 45% ROE.  We recommend trailing up the stop (from $44) to $48, looking to achieve $71 -- upside potential of 30%.  Yield 0%.
