Global airline ETF set to launch • 5:53 PM
Clark Schultz, SA News Editor
Airline stocks continue to outperform in 2015 as Q1 reports show strong efficiency gains and significant fuel expense savings.
Investors get a crack at a sector ETF this week with the launch of the U.S Global Jets ETF (Pending:JETS) on April 30.
A few tidbits from the fund company on the airline industry are listed below.
Global ancillary revenue is a major source of growth in the the sector. Add-on sales (a la carte, advertising, frequent flyer, service commissions) are up to $31.5B after airlines only took in about $2.5B in 2007.
Fleet upgrades and technology initiatives continue to boost efficiency.
A shortage of pilots could reel in some of the concerns on capacity increases.
