d87,

Agree..it is not a comparable..I was just trying to say, things take time to recover especially as we are still in the middle of this virus crisis

First I was concerned about the US market..and overlooked the UK market here is also a biggy.

We have to consider the airlines workforce are also at risk...pilot and crew..i think we overlook that

So stagger your investments then and benifit! Although I'm really not sure this is comparible to 9/11 which left a lasting fear of air travel the bottom line is this - If you invested at the height of the bull run ahead of any crash, correction, crisis or pullback you can name you would be richer than you are today. If you were brave and bought the dips considerably more so. So all you bears can run and hide while the grown ups implement buying strategies.

at the moment risk/reward is not tempting.avoid i reckon.

[jailbird] 04/3/2020 07:48

I remember when 9/11 hit.

BA share prices tanked to £2 initially...ppl thinking oh yes it will recover. But then the realisation that air travel to recover will takes a couple of years and the lasting impact will take longer before normality in travel returns.

I recall 80p was the lowest it reached.

BTW I am not saying it will happen here...but the virus needs to be contained and has peaked...This is globally of course.

Just for one moment think what will happen to travel in and out of the UK if the spreads in the UK..this scenario is unfolding here now

When the Dow posts sharp losses followed by sharp gains, that is usually an indication of a bear market.

[sr2day] 04/3/2020 06:13

at the moment let the rampers buy.bet they do not do what they advise. make no mistake IAG revenue is under severe threat of this virus.it could be halved or even decimated if this virus is not eradicated .

DON’T WE JUST LOVE THESE STITCH UP MERCHANTS



Easyjet is tipped to be the UK airline worst-affected by Covid-19. Analysts believe the hit will be temporary for London's four listed carriers and kept their 'buy' ratings on all four.

As well as a general lift in mood of markets yesterday, this will go some way to explaining why Easyjet (up 0.7 per cent, or 7.5p, to 1070p), Ryanair (up 3.1 per cent, or 0.35p, to 11.88p), British Airways-owner IAG (up 7.2 per cent, or 31.3p, to 464.4p) and Wizz Air (up 1.8 per cent, or 61p, to 3385p) all climbed higher

KEEP THEIR BUY RATINGS

UNBELIEVABLE

Given the history of this scenario, problems have aggravated not only for the airline passengers but it has also caused a financial crisis for the travel agents and airline administrations. In this regard, officials of Travel Agents Association, Tariq Sheikh, Adil and Faisal said that in view of the current situation, the government should formulate a mechanism by which passengers do not have to face a deduction for a refund of tickets. “The government should also have a policy which states that if a passenger wants to postpone the date of his or her flight, for the next few weeks or months, he or she will not have to pay extra money.”

They added that the number of people travelling overseas has dropped phenomenally in a few days due to the coronavirus epidemic. “People travelling to foreign countries will buy tickets after the elimination of this virus which has increased the difficulties of people associated with the travel industry. They are barely making ends meet.”

No

They will go bust, off the back of a world, no fly zone.

Even the dippy ones here, can see the Italian effect, spreading to every destination.

[fjgooner] 03/3/2020 23:40

No.

IAG won't reach year lows. Far from it. IAG is set to benefit from other operator failures once this temporary virus issue subsides. M&A activity in the airline sector is set to soar as discussed on Bloomberg TV earlier.

How many times have you about-faced on this (and other) stock(s)?

Any credibility folks?

[montyhedge] 03/3/2020 22:16

Will they reach the 2014 low of 315p, fingers crossed bears.

[jailbird] 03/3/2020 21:49

I mean South Korea.. nothing happening in the North .. apparently :-)

[jailbird] 03/3/2020 21:48

I said before IAG have a monopoly in Spain Iberia /Vuelling/Air Europa and Level Are all owned by IAG Yes these will impacted if virus gets out of hand in Spain but very early days there Looks to be China and North Korea worst hit .. ROW seems to contained the problem better for now

[m1k3y1] 03/3/2020 21:06

I doubt it Monty.
BA have increased flights to other destinations.
This is also a cost saving opportunity for BA / IAG

[hamhamham1] 03/3/2020 21:06

NYB. You have to be nuts to buy any shares in this climate.
