American Airlines Group, United Airlines, Delta Air Lines, Southwest Airlines, and Ryanair are the five Airline stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat’s stock screener tool. Airline stocks are shares of publicly traded companies that operate commercial air transportation—including major network carriers, low-cost carriers, and regional airlines—and represent ownership in those businesses. They are capital-intensive with high fixed costs and are highly sensitive to factors such as passenger demand, economic cycles, fuel prices, labor costs, and regulation. For investors this typically means airline stocks can be volatile with thin margins, often behaving as cyclical or recovery-oriented investments. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Airline stocks within the last several days.
