Why Delta Air Lines, American Airlines, and Southwest Airlines Stocks Are Up Wednesday

Why Delta Air Lines, American Airlines, and Southwest Airlines Stocks Are Up Wednesday

Airline stocks were getting a second wind in early afternoon trading Wednesday, with shares of Delta Air Lines (NYSE: DAL) leading the charge with a 4.1% gain as of 12:15 p.m. EDT today. Credit for the surge must go to Delta. Speaking on Fox Business this morning, Delta CEO Edward Bastian predicted that after months of flight reductions, Delta will probably execute a turn in the near future and begin slowly increasing capacity again in June and July.
