I don't get it. ALK beats the street by 7 cents and it's rewarded by getting whacked 5 percent?

You have to be DL or AA and lose money consistently for your stock price to actually go up...

AS lost (on Thursday) because Oil spiked....and now Oil is dropping and AS (as well as others) are up.

All part of the speculation money machine.

The point was that airlines are horrible investments and an employee is the last person that should own stock in an airline. In one unfortunate accident, you could lose your job and your retirement if the company goes under.

He meant that you insinuated another Plane Crash...not market crash. If it was market crash...then your point is noted, if it's plane crash, then your comment was in VERY poor taste.

I meant plane crash. Something you have to think about if you are investing in an airline. I certainly don't want that to happen, but that would certainly put your investment at risk.
