NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 07:18 ET — Premarket
- Grupo Aeroméxico’s U.S.-listed shares last closed at $22.91, up 3.29% on Friday. 1
- Oil prices rose more than $1 a barrel on Monday, a headwind for airlines because fuel is a major cost. 2
- Traders are watching Fed minutes and jobless-claims data later this week for clues on rates and demand. 3
Grupo Aeroméxico’s U.S.-listed shares were indicated flat ahead of Monday’s open, last at $22.91 after a 3.29% jump on Friday. 1
The move matters because Aeroméxico is a relatively new U.S. listing, and thin, year-end trading can exaggerate price swings for recently listed stocks. 2
Airlines are also tightly linked to energy markets. Jet fuel is typically one of the biggest operating expenses, so rising oil prices can pressure airline shares.
Brent crude futures rose $1.27, or 2.1%, to $61.91 a barrel, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude gained $1.29, or 2.3%, to $58.03, according to Reuters. 2
“Thin liquidity could amplify volatility into the start of next year,” IG analyst Axel Rudolph said, referring to year-end conditions in energy markets. 2
Broader risk appetite was also softer. S&P 500 e-minis were down 0.22% and Nasdaq 100 e-minis were down 0.40% at 5:40 a.m. ET, after the S&P 500 and Dow closed at record highs last week, Reuters reported. 3
Aeroméxico ended Friday’s session with about 573,000 shares traded and has ranged between $16.00 and $23.05 over the past 52 weeks, according to StockAnalysis.com data. 1
Aeroméxico returned to public markets in November, when the carrier and selling shareholders raised about $222.8 million in a New York Stock Exchange debut that valued the company at about $2.8 billion, Reuters reported at the time. 4
The stock represents American depositary shares (ADS) — U.S.-traded certificates that track an overseas company’s shares — giving U.S. investors a direct handle on Mexican airline risk.
Regulatory headlines remain a standing risk. The U.S. government ordered Delta Air Lines and Aeroméxico to unwind their joint venture by Jan. 1, 2026, and a U.S. appeals court later temporarily halted that order, Reuters has reported. 5
Competitive pressure is also on investor radar after budget carriers Volaris and Viva Aerobus agreed to merge under a new holding company, a deal expected to close in 2026 pending antitrust approvals. 6
For Monday, traders will focus on whether oil’s rebound extends and how the broader tape trades once U.S. cash markets open at 9:30 a.m. ET. 2
Later in the week, investors will parse minutes from the Federal Reserve’s last policy meeting and weekly jobless claims — key inputs for interest-rate expectations that can influence travel demand and risk appetite. 3
Looking further out, data providers including Investing.com and Quartr list Aeroméxico’s next earnings update for late February 2026; investors typically watch airline reports for commentary on capacity, fares and fuel costs. 7
