Why JetBlue Rallied Today
Shares of (NASDAQ: JBLU) rallied on Wednesday, up 12.4% as of 2 p.m. ET.
The airline appears to be benefiting from news that a big rival, which JetBlue actually tried to acquire last year, may go bankrupt. A bankruptcy of a key competitor has the potential to benefit other airlines, especially smaller ones like JetBlue.
Today, The Wall Street Journal reported that rival low-cost carrier Spirit Airlines intends to file for bankruptcy protection, after negotiations for a merger with Frontier Airlines broke down. Additionally, Spirit said it would delay the filing of its quarterly report last night, and that it was in discussions with its bondholders for notes maturing in 2025 and 2026 about restructuring.
