TOP PICK

Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly We reiterate LUV as a TOP PICK. Recently reported earnings showed improvements fast than analysts expected. With forward EPS expected at over $2.50 per share, the company is expected to be valued at under 19x earnings. We also like that it has continued to build cash reserves, while paying down debt. We continue to recommend a stop at $42, looking to achieve $64 -- upside potential over 33%. Yield 0% (Analysts’ price target is $63.62)

Transportation

COMMENT

It reports Tuesday. Easing travel restrictions will help. LUV is okay, but United has more international flights.

Transportation

BUY

It's the best-run American Airlines with the best routes. It's been beaten up, so pick up shares. FDA full approval of Pfizer's Covid vaccine will help.

Transportation

BUY

Reopening stocks have come off as the Delta variant increase Covid cases. As cases peak, caller expects another run-up, so is it too early start a position in LUV? No, it isn't. Buy this. The CEO is doing a great job. The stock is selling over fears of no travellers, but the TSA travel numbers disprove this--people are travelling.

TOP PICK

Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly LUV recently reported EPS of $0.57, after receiving $348 million in payroll support. Management noted June was a turning point in demand. Analysts expect next year's annual EPS to exceed $3.25, putting the stock at 16x forward earnings currently. We would buy this with a stop loss at $42, looking to achieve $70 -- upside potential over 33%. Yield 0% (Analysts’ price target is $69.98)

Transportation

BUY

Any runway left? It's at $61, and he says it'll go to $75. He recommended this in January at the start of the reopening and still recommends it.

Transportation

RISKY BUY

The airline sector is acting well. Despite the great recovery off the bottom, it doesn't reflect damage done to balance sheets. Will take time to work through. Giant wave of discretionary spending on travel once we come out of the pandemic. Short-term, the setup is good, ready for another leg higher. Other groups have a better setup. Be careful.

Transportation

BUY

Several airlines qualify for the reopening play, but LUV boasts a CEO is smart to nail down new routes now. American Airlines is great, too, but not its balance sheet. LUV also benefits from the oil patch getting better.

Transportation

COMMENT

He just interviewed the CEO who did not sound bullish at all. Don't buy this above $32.

Transportation

COMMENT

Transportation

DON'T BUY

He tends not to like the airlines. Too much risk with oil pricing and geopolitical risk. Dividend is not bad but growth has been flat in this name. They are moving into the longer range flights which is moving away from their shorter range flights that they were good at.

Transportation

DON'T BUY

He doesn't buy airlines and this has been sideways in past year and is currently below its 200-day moving average. Airlines face oil and geopolitical risks, and it's cyclical. LUV reports tomorrow.

Transportation

DON'T BUY

Probably not a lot of value in the stock. Higher fuel and lar cost is putting pressure on the company and the industry in general. Competition from the ultra-low cost carriers is also affecting it.

Transportation

BUY

Very positive on airlines. He owns Delta instead. Southwest has always been one of the best run airline companies. Competition is limited with only 4 major airlines in the US, and they are very attractively priced. Thinks there is a place in your portfolio for one of these stocks.
