Many leading funds filed forms 13-D and 13-G (and form 4) with the SEC on Monday and Tuesday, including First Eagle Investment Management, SAC Capital Advisors, and Massachusetts Financial Services, indicating that they had amended their ownership in U.S. traded public companies. Also, we have included, when applicable, SEC Form 4 filings by Institutions that are considered corporate insiders by virtue of their holding more than 10% ownership, and in many cases having representation on the Board of Directors. The following are the most notable filings on Monday and part-of-the-day on Tuesday (for more info on Forms 13-D and 13-G, and how to interpret that, please refer to the end of this article):
American Eagle Outfitters (AEO): AEO is an apparel and accessories retailer that operates over a thousand American Eagle Outfitters, Aerie standalone, and 77Kids stores in the U.S. and Canada.

AEO gave poor Q4 (January) earnings guidance (33c-35c v/s 40c-44c) at the beginning of the year, on January 5th. The stock gapped down over 17%, and has been consolidation since then, trading at a discount 13-14 forward P/E and 2.0 P/B compared to averages of 16.3 and 3.1 for its peers in the apparel and shoe retail group, while earnings are projected to rise modestly from $1.02 in 2011 to $1.06 in 2013.
Polypore International (PPO): PPO is a technology filtration company that develops, manufactures, and markets micro-porous membranes used in the separation and filtration processes.

On Monday, Chicago-based William Blair & Co., with $35.7 billion in 13-F assets per its latest Q3 filing, filed SEC Form SC 13G indicating that it holds 3.5 million or 7.6% of outstanding shares, more than double the 1.7 million shares it indicated that it held at the end of Q3. PPO trades at 16 forward P/E and 5.4 P/B compared to averages of 15.2 and 1.6 for the electronics miscellaneous components group.

50 Q400's for SFO/DEN/ORD bases

Theres no doubt that UniCal is looking at Q's if scope is not lifted. But i doubt it will be a SkyWest Inc company that wins the RFP.. Opps thought this was a ASA topic!! Then yes maybe you guys will get them!!

 

[suupah]

Looks like the stock is tanking today. Day traders!!!

 

[Flyer1015]

What did you expect?

 

[Mercyful Fate]

Official Bankruptcy announcement?

 

[JumpersAway]

Official Bankruptcy announcement?

I hope not. For everyone's sake, I hope this is avoided. If PCL goes into bankruptcy court, it will undoubtedly emerge leaner and meaner, and able to better compete with us at SkyWest INC. This isn't good for anybody looking to sustain a livable wage in this business. Sincerely, I hope you guys come through alright with your wages intact.

Actually if what I have heard is true, we may not emerge from BK at all. Phil apparantly screwed this place up so badly then stole what little cash was left when he was fired that DIP financing isn't likely available to ever exit BK.

All I can say is, i hope this is completely wrong.

 

[Flyer1015]

So, the Q first class retrofit has been put on hold by United. Now that can't be good!

I'll see you guys in line!

 

[snap145]

ya were screwed...hey wanna gang up and Street Captain over at GoJets with me?...I threw up in my mouth a little..sorry

 

[Mercyful Fate]

Considering the numerous problems within 9E, I think a BK would probably put the nail in the coffin...I cannot see them recovering

What are you talking about?! 90% of the pilot group are going to kumbaja and save 9E from BK!!!!!! Starting with the Atlanta base. Mid to junior seniority range CA are hanging for dear life on the 900. They'll do anything to keep the Atlanta flying even if they have to work for free.

Especially when those lifers have to integrate with all the Mesaba lifers that are senior to them.

 

[altimaklr]

Not just CA.. Even DTW CR9 went +4 years senior on the vacancy. Gotta love that heavy metal! Free corn flakes on long flights!
