Nonetheless, the volatility observed in stock markets and investor sentiment still outpaces the stability of underlying earnings according to recent industry analysis.The expectations for American Airlines' third and fourth quarter results are relatively modest, and it is anticipated that the outcomes and guidance provided will surpass these. Despite this, there remain persistent concerns regarding the airline's network and product challenges, as well as the effectiveness of management's strategies to align with industry counterparts.September could serve as the pivotal moment for the return to normalcy for airlines, with rationalization of U.S. domestic schedules by 1-2 points, which is expected to drive third-quarter revenue per available seat mile (RASM) increases. This is anticipated to position U.S. airlines for a sequential improvement in the fourth quarter and continuing into 2025.Note:TipRanks, an independent third party, provides analysis data from financial analysts and calculates the Average Returns and Success Rates of the analysts' recommendations.
