The shares of United Airlines (NASDAQ: UAL) have observed a correction in recent weeks largely from sustained high fuel prices despite strong domestic travel demand. Per the short-term energy outlook by EIA, benchmark oil prices are likely to trend downward during the latter half of the year, but uncertainty remains. Thus, United Airlines’ bottom line is expected to observe a dent from high fuel prices for a couple of quarters. Notably, the company does not enter into financial transactions to safeguard against oil price volatility. Per the Trefis machine learning engine which analyses historical stock price movements, UAL stock has a just 41% chance of a rise over the next month (21 trading days).
