Forward P/E Ratio: DAL's forward P/E of 6.41 is markedly lower than RHI’s forward P/E of 20.74, suggesting that DAL is undervalued relative to RHI. This lower valuation makes DAL a more attractive buy in terms of cost-to-earnings.

Year-to-Date Performance: DAL has seen a significant increase of 24.09% year-to-date, compared with RHI's decline of 21.12% over the same period. This performance suggests stronger market confidence and more robust momentum in DAL.

Profit Margin Comparison: DAL operates with a profit margin of 8.48%, which is more favorable than RHI’s profit margin of 5.74%. This suggests that DAL is more effective at converting revenues into actual profit, a key indicator of operational efficiency. Analyst Recommendations: The consensus recommendation for DAL stands at a more favorable 1.29 compared to RHI’s 3.64. This indicates more analyst confidence in DAL’s market position and future performance. Decision: Long on 1 DAL: This position is supported by DAL’s lower valuation, strong near-term earnings outlook, superior market performance, better financial health, and greater profitability metrics. Short on 1 RHI: Its current higher valuation and recent poor market performance may not justify the risks in the short term.

DAL NYSE:DAL is consolidating at previous highs and on a trendline. Consolidation leads to movement. Based on Elliot Wave Theory, we could be looking at another leg up. If you haven't researched this theory, do it. The price action of wave 4 usually has opposite characteristics than wave 2. (If wave 2 is sharp, wave 4 is longer and more consolidating and vice versa) I believe we could be on wave 4 waiting for wave 5 to start. Regardless, this consolidation will create movement. If trend breaks, wait for successful retest. If trend continues, wait for a successful retest after breaking the highs. In the meantime, there is a clear range to play up and down if you decide to. All around, lots of good opportunity. Up, Down, or Sideways, I'm game.

Delta Air Lines Soars Above Expectations: A Tale of ResilienceDelta Air Lines ( NYSE:DAL ), a titan in the aviation industry, has once again defied expectations, showcasing resilience and adaptability in a challenging landscape. The airline reported a remarkable turnaround in the first quarter, swinging to a profit with record sales despite lingering concerns about inflation and economic uncertainty. CEO Ed Bastian expressed confidence in Delta's performance, noting robust bookings for both leisure and business travel as the peak season approaches. This optimistic outlook is reinforced by the company's forecast for the second quarter, with anticipated earnings surpassing analysts' expectations. One of the key highlights of Delta's strategy is its focus on efficiency and optimization. Following an aggressive expansion phase post-pandemic, the airline has shifted gears to streamline operations and enhance profitability. This approach includes a prudent approach to hiring, with Delta slowing down recruitment while maintaining a keen eye on driving efficiency gains. The resurgence of corporate travel is particularly noteworthy, with Delta reporting a significant uptick in sales from the technology, consumer, and financial services sectors. This resurgence underscores the enduring importance of business travel and signals a promising trajectory for Delta as it navigates the recovery phase. Despite facing headwinds such as rising costs and inflationary pressures, Delta remains steadfast in its commitment to delivering value to shareholders. The company's reaffirmation of its full-year forecast and free cash flow projections reflects management's confidence in its ability to weather the storm and emerge stronger. Delta's performance in the first quarter underscores its resilience and agility in responding to dynamic market conditions. As the aviation industry continues to rebound, Delta stands poised to capitalize on emerging opportunities and chart a course towards sustained growth and profitability. Technical Outlook Delta Air Line ( NYSE:DAL ) stock is trading with a moderate Relative Strength Index (RSI) of 64.35 indicating a continuous bullish run from the stock after a positive earnings review. The stock is trading above the 200-day Moving Average (MA) further validating the bullish thesis of Delta Air Line ( NYSE:DAL ).

Long DAL as it looks to crack the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement I bought DAL today as a long-term buy. This is a violation of a restraining order I put on myself, given my lousy track record with airline stocks. Why go there, now? In bullet points: NYSE:LUV is getting smoked today, based on news that NYSE:BA will be unable to get anywhere close to its 2024 delivery commitments to LUV, thanks to the ongoing 737 MAX dumpster fire. DAL flies Airbus jets on the routes that compete with LUV and is poised to benefit. DAL, also today, issued a news release that they see Q1 revenue in the upper half of their guidance range. During an industry conference today they also stated that 9 of the top 10 booking days in their history have occurred this year. They see no demand slow-down. At the same conference, Jamie Baker, Morgan Stanley's airline and aircraft leasing analyst, stated that the big 3 airlines currently trade at a fwd P/E which is 16 turns lower than the overall market, something that hasn't happened since the 2008 Great Financial Crash. DAL is the only airline to own a refinery in order to mitigate jet fuel cost increases. This refinery has caused large losses in the past, during times of lower fuel prices. The facility is now fully upgraded and jet fuel prices are rising. Therefore I expect this refinery to become a source of relative competitive strength . At the beginning of the COVID pandemic, DAL more than doubled their total debt to cover the cost of job buyouts for 17k employees in the face of evaporating demand, as well as the ongoing fleet rejuvenation. This has cost them their investment grade rating from S&P and Fitch, but has also led to a much younger and more fuel efficient fleet. Over the last 3 years, they were able to repay SEED_TVCODER77_ETHBTCDATA:8B of the $18B in added debt and expect that, by the end of 2024, they will have their debt metrics back to investment grade standards. Once the company reaches investment grade, they plan to expand capital returns to shareholders. The stock has reached the 61.8% Fib retracement level from the 2023 meltdown. It failed there in November of last year and January of this year. I expect that the stock will succeed this time around, and at least recapture the 2023 high. If I am wrong, I will probably stop out of the stock just underneath the 50% retracement level at $40. I don't have the greates conviction for this buy since, again, I don't have a great track record with airlines. But I do think that DAL is an excellent operator, and I'll give this one a chance. If I am wrong, it'll again be years before I touch another airline.

Intuition stock DAL shortI was lying in bed this morning before getting up and thinking, "Hmm. I haven't had any dreams with any stocks lately... I also hadn't meditated for any. So maybe I should ask for one now." and boom, into my brain instantly "DA... delta airlines". So, I think, "that was cool. That's how they usually come in when they're good calls. What's the ticker for delta, again?? Oh, it's DAL. Ok." Maybe reciting the stream of consciousness is unnecessary, but that's how it went. I got up and forgot to ask for a target! So I tried to get quiet and receive the direction first. I got a solid down (my symbol for down). Plus, my eyes kind of go down (even though they're closed). Then I ask for a number. I first got 33, then 27. I don't follow DAL, so I always get a bit nervous I'll have some non-sensical number. But tried to be cool and just let a number come in. I stepped away, came back and got quiet again and instantly the number 37 came it. Once I saw the chart I got excited. If it makes a new high, I think I'm wrong. It's starting out the day going down though, so hopefully keeps going. Dowsing is supportive of this idea and gave the "bull trap" and "new low" options. The month suggested (I hope) to reach 33 is May.

DELTA AIRLINE Stock Chart Fibonacci Analysis 032124Trading Idea 1) Find a FIBO slingshot 2) Check FIBO 61.80% level 3) Entry Point > 46/61.80% 1) Find a FIBO slingshot 2) Check FIBO 423.60% level 3) Hit the top = 57/423.60% Chart time frame : D A) 15 min(1W-3M) B) 1 hr(3M-6M) C) 4 hr(6M-1year) D) 1 day(1-3years) Stock progress : A A) Keep rising over 61.80% resistance B) 61.80% resistance C) Hit the bottom D) Hit the top Stocks rise as they rise from support and fall from resistance. Our goal is to find a low support point and enter. It can be referred to as buying at the pullback point. The pullback point can be found with a Fibonacci extension of 61.80%. This is a step to find entry level. 1) Find a triangle (Fibonacci Speed Fan Line) that connects the high (resistance) and low (support) points of the stock in progress, where it is continuously expressed as a Slingshot, 2) and create a Fibonacci extension level for the first rising wave from the start point of slingshot pattern. When the current price goes over 61.80% level , that can be a good entry point, especially if the SMA 100 and 200 curves are gathered together at 61.80%, it is a very good entry point. As a great help, tradingview provide these Fibonacci speed fan lines and extension levels with ease. So if you use the Fibonacci fan line, the extension level, and the SMA 100/200 curve well, you can find an entry point for the stock market. At least you have to enter at this low point to avoid trading failure, and if you are skilled at entering this low point, with fibonacci6180 technique, your reading skill to chart will be greatly improved. If you want to do day trading, please set the time frame to 5 minutes or 15 minutes, and you will see many of the low point of rising stocks.

Delta vs Spirit vs America AirlinesFirst idea post so still figuring out these controls but here we go... Airlines can be very sticky and annoying stocks that go through very odd cycles. But the fundamentals of the companies can be even weirder since the operate in a highly regulated market that was supposedly de regulated. I was considering going long spirit since the merger breakdown has occurred. But as I was looking deeper into the company to see if a long trade could be justified I found something very interesting that might make a better trade. My original idea for going long spirit despite the rising debt on a year over year basis is that they still use some of the most desirable aircraft on the market a mix of narrow body a320 neo variants that airbus cannot make enough of and some kind of buyout or asset based valuation would make sense for the airline. Basically looking at the value of the airline the same way jet blue did but also adding the value of its west coast gates along with its aircraft value and plethora of A320 trained pilots. I started looking at other airlines and financials to see if it would make sense compared to other airlines. I think I found a trade that makes more sense but is based more on fundamental math of the company than a gut feeling like with spirit. Tell me what you guys think NASDAQ:AAL and NYSE:DAL 2 of the largest US airlines have both been beaten down by the pandemic and increased gas prices. Spirit was not able to come back to positive margin in the last few reports but AAL and DAL have. Except DAL is trading at a PE ratio of between 5 and 6.5 while American is near 13.5 yet they have a margin of less than 5 % while Deltas margin is closing to 13%. Still doing research to see what can explain this huge difference in PE and margin between the 2 companies. Do you think Delta is a good play with this observation??
