You hear all kinds of stuff. We're going to exercise more -8 options as Boeing gets more desperate to keep that line going. We're getting new 767 pax airplanes and the old ones will be converted to freighters. We're getting 757s. We're getting 777s for any number of carriers. Same with iPads, AQP, trip trades, and so on. Been hearing the same rumors for years. At some point, at least a few of them will come true.

Long time reader - first time post.
I wonder what some investors know to cause the stock to rise nearly 25% in about a week... crazy. The last earnings report did outperform expectations but mainly due to 5% increase on the charter side...at least that's how I understood it.
I wonder if there is some other deal yet to be announced that is driving all the hiring - over and above attrition. You guys heard anything on the line???... or just standard expansion and growth.

There are always rumors, but nothing seems to have "legs" at this point. The first quarter results and a positive cargo sector forecast are likely all that is driving the stock.
But I'd love to be wrong
