Recs
A small cap company that has high insider ownership, manageable debt, good prospects, and a solid history of growth over the past few years. Looks to be under-valued.
Recs
P/E around 10, earnings up over 100% year over year.

Two stars? I'm by no means a great investor, but to me this seems like a great buy. Incredibly profitable for an airline, consistently growing, low debt, enough assets to cover their short-term liabilities, and still expanding into new markets.

Pricey for an airline.

Part of my short airline Chapter 11 basket trade.
Recs
unjustified increase for an industry that barely makes money. No merger especially in the airline industry can help these companies to a profit or even breakeven
Recs
the travel business will be on the rise due to the baby boomer.
Recs
After election with new President in place especially if Dem. travel stock will skyrocket
Recs
Primarily shorting this because I have a bearish outlook on airlines in general. No matter how well-run they are, the economics of the industry are dismal.
Recs
An airline firmly in their niche...

Expanding markets to less competitive airports, should pick up some nice business from United in Oregon and Washington market. One of the safer airlines to fly. Fleet maintained by American airlines, who doesn't outsource major mechanic work to foreign NON FAA APPROVED repair centes!

This airline offers non-stop service and low-cost fares to Florida and Vegas. The target market is small towns in the upper midwest, where these destinations are highly desirable. Non-stop flights from most of the target cities is non-existent and a real bonus, particularly in the winter and spring when the weather can make stops in major hubs like O-Hare a major "gamble."
