Long term AIG Trade 30/06/20
After a very successful day of trading for US airlines (the majors all between 6-10% gain), I expect
IAG
will follow this week and longer for a number of reasons.
Firstly, during the airline bubble on the 4th and 5th of June, AIG followed, but lagged behind, starting the fast increase in stock price on the 8th, following the normal trend of the UK market lagging behind/following the US. I suspect the same will happen starting from open partly for the same reason.
Boris Johnson announced towards the end of last week that UK travelers did not have to self quarantine upon returning from certain European tourist testinations. On top of this, coronavirus cases in Europe have continued to decrease making travel more desirable (bare in mind US airline stocks are increasing despite the sudden increase in coronavirus cases in the US).
