I’d say the market liked their Kirby’s story better than other carriers who talked to investors today: UAL up 12.36%. AAL was up more but their story is more “we will survive” and they’ve lost A LOT more value this year.
I wonder if that huge surge in price was more due to the hope Trump is going to bail them out if everything fails. That's what I get regarding the current unraveling of the travel industry.
