I found your article, have this on my TDA
they say to Sell AMR and I am not surprised.
In so far as swing trading, it does not matter
provided there is volume to move the share price
and enough of a swing to make it worth the risk.
I still believe in this stock and it has proved
the naysayers wrong time and time again.

RECOMMENDATION
We rate AMR CORP/DE (AMR) a SELL.
This is driven by multiple weaknesses, which we believe should have a greater impact than any
strengths, and could make it more difficult for investors to achieve positive results compared to most of the
stocks we cover. The company's weaknesses can be seen in multiple areas, such
as its unimpressive growth in net income, poor profit margins and weak operating cash flow.
HIGHLIGHTS
The company, on the basis of change in net income from the same quarter one year ago, has significantly
underperformed when compared to that of the S&P 500 and the Airlines industry. The net income has
significantly decreased by 34.7% when compared to the same quarter one year ago, falling from -$375.00
million to -$505.00 million.
The gross profit margin for AMR CORP/DE is currently extremely low, coming in at 14.00%. It has decreased
from the same quarter the previous year.
Net operating cash flow has declined marginally to $456.00 million or 0.65% when compared to the same
quarter last year. In addition, when comparing to the industry average, the firm's growth rate is much lower.
Compared to where it was 12 months ago, the stock is up, but it has so far lagged the appreciation in the S&P
500. Turning our attention to the future direction of the stock, we do not believe this stock offers ample
reward opportunity to compensate for the risks, despite the fact that it rose over the past year.
AMR CORP/DE's earnings per share declined by 12.6% in the most recent quarter compared to the same
quarter a year ago. This company has reported somewhat volatile earnings recently. But, we feel it is poised
for EPS growth in the coming year. During the past fiscal year, AMR CORP/DE continued to lose money by
earning -$5.03 versus -$8.32 in the prior year. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings
(-$1.22 versus -$5.03).
