I don't believe that for a second, and I'm not sure why you feel the need to repeat it so often.

Your urging pilots to sell their house and go all in on a stock is quite irresponsible especially for anyone who knows the first thing about investing. Everone has a different financial situation and therefore should have different risk tolerance.

Ironically, as people told you it was the airline you worked for that was the one that was far more likely to have and has had the best returns in the industry because of the company's actions you could have and should have understood. Instead you picked a LCC at the worst possible time.

Gents, congrats or I'm sorry that happened to you, but can you take this elsewhere?

yep, back to our regularly scheduled programming:

https://ir.united.com/node/31996/html

It has come to the Company's attention that there may be rumors spreading among certain of our investors regarding United's involvement in a potential strategic transaction with another airline. The Company is not in negotiations or discussions with any other airline regarding a merger, acquisition or similar strategic transaction and has not been in any recent discussions with any airlines regarding the same. As indicated by United's strong earnings results and outlook provided on January 21, 2025, the Company has great momentum and a bright future ahead.

Basically the press release paraphrasing of “yeah we don’t need that garbage to grow we’re doing fine on our own.”

”we have not met with any airline to discuss m&a”

I can’t believe how many people have interpreted the 8k filing any other way than that.

I mean, a comment like that does keep the stock price for the target airline from moving up too much before the deal gets done. It’s what I’d say if I had a deal to protect…
