GOL Linhas Aereas Inteligentes SA (ADR) (GOL)

This is 5-star company. So I'm going against the crowd by by betting that airlines will suffer due to high fuel pices.

Telechart Scan - top 30% for money stream surge, balance of power, time segmented volume, average volume last 5 days, and capitalization.

B10.60T16.25

Coming back from a negative year with tremendous upside (beware of debt!!) and a good margin of safety.. not as cheap as 6 months ago but still....

Airplanes? hrmph.

Gol is one of my more risky picks. It makes up only 2% of my real portfolio. I like it because it has copied the Southwest model, it is in an emerging market--Brazil, and it's financial reporting is on par with American firms. I'm scared to buy stocks outside the US because of lack of transparency in their financials, but from my research this one seems to be an American run company in a fast growth emerging market. Profits are down because of merger, weak economy, fuel cost, and purchase of more planes but sales are still growing. This will do well long term.

All their elements are in proper place to take advantage of a solid growth pattern for South American air travel as their economy starts to
recover.

Great company, does cargo and air transport, and is based in Latin America.

$13 a share

Cheap stock... its been a LONG way down... when the economy rebounds its UP UP UP...

GOOOOAAAALLLLLLL!!!!

This airline carrier is poised for terrific growth in the next few years. Solid business in a market that is just beginning to experience growth among the masses. A discount carrier with little competition and huge demand moving forward.

OIL down.
Airlines up.
This is the cream of the crop.

gol is a well managed company, that is being hurt by the escalation of the oil price. I am betting that the oil price will fall, during the next years

Well run discount airline with new planes operating in Brazil with some international flight. buy around $15 sell at $22

The Real is way up on the Dollar. I love the Brazil market and GOL is expanding their fleet to take on a lot more business. With oil going up (in dollars) this stock has taken a huge hit but again in dollars not reals!!! The air disasters have woken the gov't up and they are investing a lot more in their airports. Stock is trading at 50% of where it was and the company is doing better than ever with plenty of growth.

Brazilian domestic airlines, emerging economy

well run , good business model. selling @ discount because of high oil . growth of brazil will overcome all obstacles

GOL Linhas Aereas Inteligenes services the South American market in two segements, with one servicing roughly 60 destinations within Brazil and the other hitting 15 major cities within South America. GOL is essentially a low-cost air company operating in a foreign country, another RYAYY. GOL has been putting on a show over the last few years with impressive revenue growth and unwavering profit growth. Passenger load levels have been steady or slightly increasing and their 2008 forecast looks very promising. Specifically when the company highlighted expectations for 2008, operating margins jumped dramatically from the 4-5% we saw this year to 13-15% in 2008...thats huge!!! With a forward earnings expectations of just over $2 per share in 2009, GOL is trading at just 9 times its earnings which is relatively inexpensive for the low-cost airfare sector (most of which are mired in steep losses right now). This is a perfect time for entry as well with oil spiking over $102 per barrel. When Boone Pickens turns negative on oil, I listen, and low cost airfare will see the biggest boost in their stock price when oil prices do indeed retreat 15% from their highs.
