American Airlines stock tries to rebound after a 7% earnings slide as storm costs loom
American Airlines shares rose 0.9% to $13.68 Wednesday, rebounding after a 7% drop following a quarterly profit miss and major storm disruptions. The airline projected 2026 adjusted earnings above analyst estimates but warned Winter Storm Fern could cut first-quarter revenue by up to $200 million. Management expects operations to normalize by Thursday. Investors await the Federal Reserve’s policy decision.
