<h3>Why Congressional Transactions Matter</h3>
A congressional transaction is when any representative or senator either buys or sells an individual stock.
Anyone working in Congress must file a Periodic Transaction Report to inform the public of their recent transaction within 30 days of being notified of the transaction and within 45 days of the transaction date.
In April 2012, Former President Barack Obama signed the STOCK Act into law. The act prohibits members of Congress from using private information given to them by their position for personal gain such as buying or selling a stock. The act also expanded disclosure requirements for members of Congress by requiring them to file a monthly disclosure.
<h3>Why Congressional Transactions Matter</h3>
Congressional transactions shouldn't be the primary reason for an investing decision, but they can be an important factor for an investor to consider.
When a senator or representative makes a new purchase, it could be an indication they expect the stock to rise.
A sale, on the other hand, can be made for a variety of reasons, and may not necessarily mean the seller thinks the stock will go down.

Analyst <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst/58485285ee7bf6000154d235/jamie-baker">Jamie Baker</a> of JPMorgan trimmed estimates for several U.S. airlines for the second quarter.
Delta Air Lines Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DAL#NYSE">DAL</a>)
<ul>
<li>Rating: Overweight</li>
<li>Price Target: $83</li>
</ul>
Delta remains the "industry leader among full-service airlines," Baker wrote in the note. Before COVID-19, the company generated the highest margins among peers, which was "at least partly structural," and its balance sheet allowed it to be under less strain than others during the pandemic downturn, he stated.
After COVID-19, Delta witnessed "industry-leading loyalty economics, international travel tailwinds and robust premium product demand, trends we think will continue for the foreseeable future," the analyst said.
American Airlines Group Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAL#NASDAQ">AAL</a>)
Rating: Overweight
Price Target: $26
While American Airlines&#8217; balance sheet issues remain, "execution on deleveraging has effectively removed significant overhang, with the lowest capital spend of DAL and UAL in the near term providing runway for further improvement," Baker wrote.
American Airlines stands to benefit from the demand recovery being led by international travel, which continues to accelerate more than domestic, he added.
Check out <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings">other analyst stock ratings</a>.
JetBlue Airways Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JBLU#NASDAQ">JBLU</a>) 
<ul>
<li>Rating: Neutral</li>
<li>Price Target: $6</li>
</ul>
JetBlue has the ability to move past its failed acquisition of Spirit Airlines (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SAVEQ#OTC">SAVEQ</a>) and "recapture lost margin ground on Legacy carriers," the analyst stated.
"JBLU possesses all the tailwinds currently benefitting the sector: premium product, meaningful loyalty, and international travel, albeit all to a significantly lesser degree than the Big 3 of DAL, UAL and AAL," he further wrote.
Southwest Airlines Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LUV#NYSE">LUV</a>)
<ul>
<li>Rating: Underweight</li>
<li>Price Target: $30</li>
</ul>
Southwest Airlines has "the industry's deepest track record of profitability, the highest quality balance sheet, and a loyal customer base," Baker said.
He added that the company faces operational issues and carriers with premium and international exposure should outperform Southwest Airlines in the near term.
United Airlines Holdings Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UAL#NASDAQ">UAL</a>)
<ul>
<li>Rating: Overweight</li>
<li>Price Target: $133</li>
</ul>
United Airlines "possesses exposure to the strongest industry tailwinds, primarily robust demand for international travel and premium products," the analyst wrote.
"With Legacy airlines widening the outperformance gap over LCCs (low-cost carriers), we expect trends to continue to favor the Big 3 (DAL, UAL, AAL) in the medium term," he further stated.
Price Action: At the time of publication on Monday:
<ul>
<li>Delta Air Lines shares declined by 0.16% to $37.19.</li>
<li>American Airlines rose by 1.56% to $9.61.</li>
<li>JetBlue Airways rose by 2.92% to $4.06.</li>

<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<h3>Comparing American Airlines Group's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, American Airlines Group's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 9.45%, which means the company has more short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

How Do Investors Really Feel About American Airlines Group?

Demand in the airline sector weakened throughout the first quarter, with expectations of a tough earnings season featuring lower second-quarter forecasts <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/airlines" rel="noreferrer noopener">and reduced 2025 earnings guidance.</a>
Airline stocks are down 24% year-to-date, and BofA Securities analyst Andrew G. Didora notes that demand recovery hinges on achieving macroeconomic stability.
The positive outlook for the airline industry in 2024 was initially based on steady demand, but that has shifted since early February due to factors like macro uncertainty, cuts in DOGE, weaker consumer confidence, poor transborder traffic, stagnating business travel, and slowing transatlantic demand, the analyst writes.
Per Didora, the upcoming first quarter of 2025 earnings season is expected to show weak second-quarter forecasts and lowered 2025 earnings guidance, with analysts adjusting their estimates and price targets.
Also Read: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/travel/25/03/44192357/united-airlines-starlink-rollout-to-boost-regional-aircraft-wi-fi-speed-by-50x" rel="noreferrer noopener">United Airlines&#8217; Starlink Rollout To Boost Regional Aircraft Wi-Fi Speed By 50x</a>
Due to weakening demand and pricing in 1Q25, the airline industry is expected to finish March with pricing at its lowest levels in several quarters.
Airlines need macroeconomic stability for demand to recover and reverse the 24% decline in stock prices year-to-date, the analyst notes.
Here are Didora&#8217;s key takeaways in some of the biggest players in the space:
<ul>
<li>The analyst reiterated the Buy rating on Delta Air Lines, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DAL#NYSE">DAL</a>), lowering the price forecast from $65 to $56.</li>
<li>Didora maintained the Buy rating on United Airlines Holdings, Inc.(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UAL#NASDAQ">UAL</a>), reducing the price forecast from $110 to $100.</li>
<li>The analyst reiterated the Neutral rating on American Airlines Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAL#NASDAQ">AAL</a>), lowering the price forecast from $16 to $12.</li>
</ul>
The analyst observes that, based on Bank of America&#8217;s aggregated credit and debit card data, spending slowed by 400bps from January to February, and March remained at February&#8217;s levels.
The analyst anticipates that 2025 earnings per share (EPS) forecasts will be at risk, with new projections showing that all airlines are likely to fall short of their full-year earnings targets.
With this trend,&nbsp;Delta Air Lines&#8217; revised 1Q25 unit revenue outlook of -1% suggests March unit revenues could be down 5%, with a forecast of low single-digit declines in 2Q25, assuming a 200bps improvement in April due to the Easter shift.
Specifically, the analyst&#8217;s revised forecasts for Delta and United Airlines are nearly 10% below consensus, at $6.40 and $11.35, respectively.
The analyst observes that while domestic supply has been slow to leave the market, May growth is the lowest in 1H25, aside from January.
Didora projects domestic growth to decrease into 3Q25 as airlines adjust supply to match new demand levels.

Following the worst quarterly performance for U.S. stocks in over two years, caution dominated Wall Street as investors awaited details on the tariff plans expected from the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/tariffs">Trump administration on Wednesday.</a>
On Tuesday, a Washington Post report suggested the administration is considering a sweeping 20% tariff on most of the $3 trillion in annual imports.
Survey data showed that goods-producing businesses had been front-loading purchases ahead of the expected tariffs by the end of first quarter, with inventory levels rising and input cost pressures<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/04/44588076/us-manufacturing-slips-into-contraction-as-tariff-driven-costs-hit-near-3-year-high"> hitting a three-year high.</a>
Major indexes showed little movement by midday in New York, with the S&amp;P 500 and Nasdaq 100 posting modest gains.
Notably, Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>), Rivian Automotive Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIVN#NASDAQ">RIVN</a>), and Lucid Group Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LCID#NASDAQ">LCID</a>) each jumped around 6% as investors viewed them as potential winners from auto-related tariffs. 
Reports last week highlighted that all three manufacture vehicles entirely in the U.S., giving them a competitive edge over peers like Ford Motor Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>) and General Motors Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>).
Treasuries climbed as yields fell, and gold took a breather after hitting a record $3,122 per ounce. Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) rose more than 3% to over $85,000, marking its strongest session in three weeks.
