AAL will see $60 a share. Mark my words and mark this post.
The caveat however is that it may realistically take 16-24 months of proven integration and synergy results, as well as low oil, and stock buybacks, etc. But it will happen… eventually...
Yeah this is pretty hard to stomach.
My heart almost goes out to old Doug, he must have just wanted to get the hell out of there when he saw where this was all heading.
I take it all back Doug! !! Just buy, buy, buy!!!
Gulp. Wheez.
I feel like we're laying in side by side oxygen tents in the icu.
If it's any comfort, I've watched my portfolio tank by the same amount.
Just focusing on my breathing and my pulse....
Trying to remind myself that this is a pattern I've seen repeated again and again, and nothing more. God, I hope so...
That is a good observation.
It'll come. Not for a year probably. Don't hold your breath.
As (if) the stock returns to higher ground the payout pools value increases, but debtors will still have to abide by the bankruptcy settlements. Even with this pullback there's way more there than needed. End result more left for us.
And since Doug tried to push it through once already, it seems making us whole is a priority.
But I'm probably not the right guy to speak of management intentions this week....
You're probably not alone in that thinking.
Which makes me think it will be a long run before we see 50 again.
On the bright side, it should time out with that final distribution. ... :)
Well put. Good point.
There is a logic to what you're saying.
I guess when I calm down I'll be more open to it.
Thank you. My point exactly.
Ralph I understand the market overreacted, I now expect it to. But king and are making the same point... He hung us out on a plank, and on that anus Cramer show. And exposed us all to the slippery tongue of mr charisma.
Well, you see what we got. Opinion reversal, flip flop snake oil bullshit. Exactly what you'd expect. And ZERO damage control.
I just want to say thanks Doug.
Thanks for making me look like a buffoon for defending you endlessly on this board. And for investing in you and your team. Really pleased with the results.
And BTW… Cramer is a flip-flopping Douche Bag and huckster.
If you listen to him you deserve what you get.
We are back to the old days of the trusts.
The Iikes of JP Morgan and Vanderbilt etc.
Only these hedge fund guys and CEOs can muster that kind of share volume. It isn't public investors like us nose diving 20+ million shares in a flash like that.
We're being played. And burned.
Just my humble paranoid po'd opinion ??
This is unbelievable to me.
The ceo of the worlds largest airline goes on the air with the worlds biggest windbag and the two of them completely reverse the course of AN ENTIRE INDUSTRY in 48 hours.
There has got be some laws being broken here for the love of God.
No, not a conspiracy theorist.
I'm an Optimist, with a reality chaser...
Yep, that does explain a lot of the last months.
It should also serve to remind all how a few big players can move the playing field and the little guy(s) have no real chance of predicting where things are going, or should be going.
Regardless of what your charts and trends and tea leaves say. There are forces at play, the movements of which, you will never be privy to.
Amen brother.
Even a lifer bullish long like myself must admit this sideways action is getting very old...
I guess it's a day traders dream come true.
American Airlines CEO Forgos Cash With Shift to Stock-Only Pay
Wow. Doug Parker!!!
Just WOW!!!
Slacker,trend and apo are personally to thank for making me even more wealthy. by several 100's of K's. I just did the exact opposite of whatever they espoused.
….and no, they will not be getting a commission.
LOLMFAO
What you're really going to be surprised by is how much money you can lose acting on heresay like that.
I'm a little confused by that too. I would have thought any such date would have come and gone.
AWESOME!! CONGRATS!!!
Because you've watched this cycle over and over again now.
And you know better than to do that.
Totally agree! As always, ride the rough patches out and don't give in to the temptation to panic or day trade.
Holy Macaroni!
The is just fantastic.
Long and Strong! AAMRQ!
...Here's to patience and perseverance!
Wow! Nice volume at the end there. Awesome week everybody!
Great weekend to all longs and reflect on what a fantastic ride it's been. And will continue to be!
Long and strong!!!
Oh yeah baby!
You got that right!
Trend? Slacker?
…cue the crickets...
$62 when you return.
Amen brother!!
Yeee Haa!!!
I see $60 on the horizon… She's a gettin' nearer...
I have complete confidence that when they open the floodgates on buybacks we'll see some nice gains.
The daily volumes so far just don't support any buying taking place. Not for absolute certainty. We can all speculate but it's just that.
IMHO we'll see the moves when it happens. They are taking 2 years this time. Not 1 like before, so perhaps it's designed to be a slower pace this time around.
Sorry bud, that's a tough one.
ain't that the truth buddy! LONG and STRONG!!
As generally bullish as I am, that may be a bit of fantasy land. But here's to dreaming big!!
Agreed. $80 is coming. It may take a Quarter or two.
Hoping I'm overestimating the time though :)
If you referring to Oregon being cheaper I have no doubt you are right.
Sonoma unlikely :)
I welcome any input you have :)
Yup. I've got my eyes on a vineyard in Central Coast CA. But every month I wait, the acreage goes up… :)
Been there too. :)
