| Comment | 1.830 | David Burrows | Like a warrant on market recovery. Highly economically sensitive. Because they have First Class and Executive Class, their capacity utilization of those expensive seats can have a huge impact on profitability. If you own, it is a bet that that this recovery is sustainable. | 2010-06-21 | |
| TOP PICK | 1.850 | Michael Smedley | Thinks this company is coming out of the depths of years of misery, poverty, internal warfare, etc. Have cut it back now to be able to make money. | 2010-05-27 | |
| SELL | 1.880 | Andrew McCreath | Buying airline stocks is a lottery ticket. There is an interesting dynamic with Porter Airlines trying to go public. Westjet (WJA-T) have been using some of the bullets in their discount arsenal to go after Porter. | 2010-05-26 | |
| TOP PICK | 2.250 | Michael Smedley | Considering it as a trading stock. There are analysts that are looking for a double. | 2010-04-29 | |
| DON'T BUY | 1.640 | Norman Levine | Would never own it. No business in the history of the world has destroyed more capital. It is impossible to make money in the airline industry. | 2010-03-09 | |
| DON'T BUY | 1.210 | David Baskin | Doesn't like airline stocks. Very difficult to make money in this industry. | 2009-12-15 | |
| DON'T BUY | 1.290 | Michael Sprung | (Market Call Minute.) Airlines are difficult at the best of times, particularly in the environment we are in. | 2009-11-27 | |
| DON'T BUY | 1.290 | David Baskin | (Market Call Minute.) Wouldn't touch it. | 2009-11-19 | |
| SELL | 1.340 | Peter Hodson | (Market Call Minute.) Doesn’t like airlines. | 2009-11-16 | |
| WATCH | 1.140 | Ron Meisels | Had a major selloff in the summer and then shows a congested area from that time on. Until the stock breaks through $2 you do nothing. $2 is the signal it has broken out. | 2009-11-05 | |
| BUY | 1.050 | Craig MacAdam | (Market Call Minute.) Just recapitalized and the risk of bankruptcy is off the table. Airline industry is extremely risky but in Canada there are only 2 players. | 2009-11-02 | |
| DON'T BUY | 2.320 | Duncan Stewart | He never owned this but preferred Westjet (WJA-T). The real challenge on this one is the slowing economy means fewer flyers. Will lose more money in the last quarter. | 2008-11-18 | |
| DON'T BUY | 5.250 | Kevin O'Leary | Only own as trading vehicle. He is an investor. Management has done better in the last couple of years. It’s do ok. | 2008-10-01 | |
| WAIT | 5.150 | Bruce Campbell | Wait at least a couple of weeks or months. | 2008-09-29 | |
| BUY | 4.790 | Robert Floyd | With lower oil prices they should have a better outlook for the quarter. However you are probably looking at declining numbers in terms of capacity utilization. Did a good job in moving up to more efficient aircraft and closing down routes that no longer made sense. | 2008-09-25 | |
| Comment | 4.810 | Robert Floyd | In the last quarter, they made a lot of money out of derivatives. Made a profit, but basically on hedging of fuel. Very solid company in this space. Have to do something with Ace Aviation, which is a big holding. Expect they will dividend it out and unwind the company. If the economy turns around, you could have a nice move. | 2008-08-21 | |
| Comment | 5.850 | Gordon Higgins, CA, MBA | Oil has a major impact on this stock. Their energy consumption was up $220 million. If you think oil is going to drop to $80, the stock will have good torque behind it. | 2008-08-08 | |
| DON'T BUY | 4.630 | Veronika Hirsch | This is a horrible industry. Even Westjet (WJA-T), which is a well-managed company, is not a stock she would buy. If oil should drop to $100, the stocks will have a good bounce. | 2008-07-17 | |
| BUY | 16.240 | Ian Nakamoto | When oil stocks move up, airline stocks tend to weaken. Outlook for the airline industry is pretty positive. For the short term, it is fine. | 2007-03-29 |
