  • American Airlines Shares Drop 7% on Q4 Earnings Miss and Weather Impact
    January 27, 2026, 6:34 PM EST. American Airlines Group fell 7%, closing at $13.54, after reporting fourth-quarter results that missed profit expectations and revealing impacts from the U.S. government shutdown and winter storm Fern. The shutdown cost the airline $325 million in Q4, while the storm is expected to reduce Q1 results by about $175 million. Despite these setbacks, the company projects $2 billion in free cash flow for 2026 and has reduced more than $2 billion of its long-term debt. Trading volume surged 82% above average amid investors' cautious reaction. The broader market edged up, with the S&P 500 rising 0.41% and Nasdaq gaining 0.91%. Delta Air Lines and United Airlines also declined, reflecting sector-wide concerns after earnings reports.
