Q: Please give opinion on financial and momentuum strength of West Jet and future outlook, or any intrinsic or extrinsic to Canadian airline stocks

Please compare WestJet to the other airline in Canada as well

I have purchased at the bottom (@ about 15.50) and am concerned profit taking may cause a Drop ... noting last 2 days pullbacks

is there any typical seasonality to Canadian airlines?

Thankyou

Q: Don't see much Q/A on Airline companies. Would have thought they would be getting a boost to the bottom line in 2016 due to the low (and going lower) cost of oil. WJA share price looks pretty beat up right now. Can you come up with any negatives on this stock?

Q: Good morning; I own WestJet. The stock is down 20% since I bought it. I look at the chart and it doesn't look pretty. I am debating whether to wait it out and hopefully it comes back or take the loss. The stock keeps going down. Thanks

Q: I'm surprised that this stock has not increased during the month of December with the continuing downward pressure on oil prices. Does anyone have any idea as to what percentage of its fuel is hedged?

Q: Merry Xmas to all
I bought WJA on Dec 7th and now down 10%.I figure they have a lot going for them--lower cost fuel--reciprocal with Delta--pilot strike settled---voted best travel card

Q: I was going to add a transport to my portfolio and I am considering WJA, CNR and TMA. With the falling price of oil, more money in consumers pockets, I'm leaning towards WJA. Could I have your insight into all 3 and which one you prefer and the reasons why.
