Deactivated from the S&P 500 after joining on March 16, 2015. Activated to the S&P MidCap 400.
Tbh all airline stocks are junk, terrible investments. DAL down 30%, UAL down 50%, AAL down 60% on 5y chart.
Idc about the stock. I care about management paying off debts efficiently so we have the capital to purchase new shiny things.

Getting kicked from the S&P isn't the end of the world but it's not great. Many Americans invest in the S&P and it helps keep your stock price up just because everyone is buying it blindly.
United will surpass our fleet size sometime over the next year or two if their deliveries continue. Delta makes massively more profit than we do. The question should be asked, what does a 2030, 2040, 2050 AA look like? Is there room for three legacy network carriers in the US?
SWA does domestic better/cheaper than us, and DL and UA do international better than us. We just sort of exist right now. Kinda like UA in 2010-2016.

I'm not saying we aren't getting paid or that AA is on the verge of shutting down doom and gloom. Of course these issues bother me as they should you. You have a vested interest in our future here and should care about the course that is plotted. Obviously we don't have control over these things but I'm not going to stop talking about said issues.

I agree, (for now) the issue becomes if we get so cheap someone buys us for our parts. That was a real concern back when Doug was running things for a brief period as well.

Yeah. It's the best poison pill we could hope for.
AA will do what's it's always done. Plod along and be mediocre and keep their head just above the water. We all knew it when we came here. As long as the paychecks keep clearing I'll keep doing my job and enjoying my days off. Management makes the big bucks to worry about Wall St. not us.
