Why American Airlines (AAL) Shares Are Plunging Today
Shares of global airline American Airlines (NASDAQ:AAL) fell 9.2% in the morning session after the company reported weak fourth-quarter results, with full-year EPS guidance missing Wall Street's estimates due to surging fuel costs and margin pressures from new labor agreements. Management also adopted a cautious stance on capacity expansion, which isn't helping the growth story. On the other hand, AAL beat analysts' revenue passenger miles (a key volume metric) expectations this quarter, which led to a revenue beat. EPS also outperformed. However, with markets more forward-looking, the weak outlook seems to be weighing on shares.
FTAI Aviation (FTAI) Shares Skyrocket, What You Need To Know
Shares of aircraft leasing company FTAI Aviation (NASDAQ:FTAI) jumped 8% in the morning session as the stock continued to recover after the Muddy Waters short report accusing the company of misrepresenting its business (more asset sales than maintenance, repair, overhaul (MRO) revenue) and engaging in misleading depreciation tactics. This could show that as investors digest the news and speak to FTAI management/investor relations, they are gaining more confidence in the business compared to when the report was initially published. Additionally, multiple sellside analysts from firms such as Morgan Stanley, Jefferies, and BTIG have defended the stock and categorized the drop post-Muddy Waters report to be overblown.
Why Electronic Arts (EA) Shares Are Plunging Today
Shares of video game publisher Electronic Arts (NASDAQ:EA) fell 18.8% in the morning session after the company reported disappointing preliminary Q3 2025 results, revealing sluggish growth. EA now anticipates a mid-single-digit decline in live services net bookings, a stark reversal from its earlier forecast of mid-single-digit growth. Net revenue is also expected to clock in at $1.883 billion, closer to the lower end of its previous guidance range of approximately $1.875 billion to $2.025 billion. The slowdown was attributed to weaker-than-expected performance in Global Football (football-related video games) and underwhelming engagement from titles like Dragon Age.
