Airline stocks

As you readers might already know, the airline stocks had a huge day today, mostly due to bullish reports from UAUA. Digging around a little, I came to know that quite a few analysts have also turned bullish on the sector recently. So, I figured it might be worth our while to have a look at the sector and the major airline stocks. And I must add, I like what I see!!

Let's start with the airline index $XAL. Massive day today as you can see. It broke through the MA(50) and MA(20) with ease. A nice double bottom had been formed with a positive MACD divergence.


UAUA - Important break of resistance at 14 on massive volume. A close near the high of the day means its quite probable to run some more.


LCC - The one that I had posted about late Sunday and was in going into today. Extremely nice volume pattern. The upside over 6 took it to 52 week highs, which means it certainly has room to run.


DAL - A nice bounce off MA(50), again on impressive volume.


AMR - An even more impressive bounce off MA(50). Again, great volume. Watch out for a break of 8.50.


Its certainly nice to find all these impressive bullish charts so easily when a lot of charts out there have been spoilt by the recent action. Shows the benefit of keeping an eye on individual sectors.

Take care and good luck tomorrow. Stay warm!
