Forex is beginning to buckle, commodities looks like bending, while equities are doing their best not to snap as investors and dealers rebalance their portfolios over global tensions and questionable growth. Only day's ago, the IMF commented that capital markets have been underpricing geopolitical ramifications and that the macroeconomic repercussions have yet to be felt ��is the market finally beginning to heed their warning?
To date, safety trades have been the order of play as Russia steps up the tit-for-tat sanction war with the EU/US, the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas ended, and President Obama has authorized potential airstrikes against ISIS in Iraq. Obama's orders itself would only be capable of driving markets for a short period, nevertheless the combination of all the various geopolitical risks (Ukraine, Russia-West) and poor market headlines (Argentina default, BES, governance issues at various EM banks, WHO declaring Ebola a global risk), coupled with historically thin liquidity in August, is making the outlook rather uncertain with investor's very nervous and trigger happy.

The two airlines on the list are JetBlue Airways Corp. (NASDAQ: JBLU) and Southwest Airlines Co. (NYSE: LUV). That any airlines at all make such a list is something of a miracle.

August was the third straight month of underwhelming PRASM results from Delta Air Lines. Perhaps not coincidentally Alaska Air and JetBlue (JBLU) have been underperforming industry PRASM lately as well, two airlines defending themselves against Delta Air Lines. To be sure, Delta Air Lines��PRASM is still growing faster than its CASM, which means margins are expanding y/y, but the rate of margin change is likely to be ��ess good��relative to United Continental (UAL) and American Airlines (AAL) due to Delta Air Lines’ capacity choices. We like Delta Air Lines, just not as much as most other Outperform-rated airlines.

The airports that experienced the largest change in share by a major operator were either: 1) on the endangered hub list (e.g. Cincinnati, Memphis and soon-to-be Cleveland); 2) targeted by a low fare airline (e.g. JetBlue (JBLU) in Boston and Fort Lauderdale, Southwest (LUV) in Baltimore and Denver, among others); or 3) Washington Reagan National and New York LaGuardia which reflected the 2012 slot/gate swap between Delta and US Airways. We are of the view that the majority of these actions were/are margin accretive as US airlines focus on redeploying their assets to airports where they can maximize returns.

The current economic and political environment makes it hard to see what possible catalyst could pull EBR stock out of negative territory any time soon. EBR’s payouts have been erratic, so the stock’s dividend yield is basically a roll of the dice. Worst of all, EBB still has no profits. For dividend stocks, that’s another dealbreaker.
