  • The ATM at the Airlines [View article]
    I believe consumers would understand (but not like) a surcharge for rising fuel costs. Let this cost float with the price of jet fuel at the time they make the reservation. It may be a $400 flight has a $75 fuel surcharge; so be it. Get the cost out front, transparent, and get rid of the silly nickel and dime stuff which are just surrogates for real issue of high fuel cost.

    Opinions on the bottom for UAUA, AMR, and LUV; assume oil will go to 150.

  • Are Airlines Stocks a Contrarian Opportunity? [View article]
    I agree except if oil gets to $170 that could literally drive UAUA and AMR into bankruptcy. LUV will survive unless crude gets to $250, which could happen. I carry some airline stocks as a hedge against a fast oil drop.

  • Investors Look to the Fed for Signals on Inflation and Interest Rates [View article]
    The weak dollar is just one of at least three factors setting oil price.
    A 25 point hike could move oil down to $120 but if supply tightens or Nigeria or Iran issues flare up we will be right back to $135 or higher.
