The investment climate surrounding American Airlines Group (NASDAQ:AAL) remains a mixed bag. Despite a wave of interest from institutional shareholders like the Teachers Retirement System of Kentucky and the Retirement Systems of Alabama, the performance over the past five years paints a bleak picture with the stock dipping 4.4% this week and delivering a loss of 42% to investors. However, there remains some optimism, with surging earnings estimates signaling an upside for the stock. Multiple hedge funds also view it as the best aviation stock to consider.
On the operational front, things look slightly brighter: Q4 2024 earnings guidance has been released and a new agreement has been ratified by technical operations and related teams. However, fluctuation in stock movements is evident and questions arise about the best time to buy the AAL stock. With heavy institutional backing of about 63% and Morgan Stanley issuing a positive price forecast, one could argue a strong case for long-term investment. Recent strengths, including third-quarter record revenue, are offset by securities fraud investigation and class-action lawsuits that cloud American Airlines' outlook.
