Cool. Did you know if you combine the merge the letters from "Frontier" and "Spirit Airline" it makes...

Inferior, Stript Airline?

That, sir, depends on how efficient you are.

I hear they are bringing in the designers of homeless-proof benches to create a new class of “seating” called Rail. It will be a 36” tall rail with seat belts to allow safe leaning. This will fit 9 in the same space that 6 would sit.

These same airlines that created carry-on fees are now considering Coat fees if you don’t carry-on or check a bag. Too often people were found with a pair of socks and underwear in a coat pocket to avoid a bag fee.

Honestly don’t know if you are being sarcastic.

Well, that's a bit less work for one of our Sales girls...

I mentioned it to the team this morning when I was grabbing a coffee in their area and they hadn't heard yet.

AAL is finally going on a run. Glad I added to positions on the dip and back in the green now. Looks like I was early and the market is reacting to Omicron cases plummeting, the winter storms finally relaxing and the overall market correction easing. All of my options expire in May which should reflect the spring break traffic which I think is going to overwhelm travel and be the first indicator of what is about to come during the summer travel period.

Today just felt super smooth. To add. January jobs were also relatively good. Doesn’t seem like Russia is invading this week.

Supply chain is always a chip that can cause some market stress. But today just felt smooth.

That jobs report was spectacular. It should provide tailwinds for the next week.

After the Olympics are over the ground will be completely frozen in Ukraine and that will be when it happens if Putin isn't just posturing. I think the Olympics are key since Putin's big ally is hosting the games and doesn't want to get on Xi's bad side.

Want to really send the market screaming, let Russia make a move while China simultaneously makes a move on Taiwan. A frew days before the olympics are over, I'm going to buy a bunch of $.01 puts on select stocks and some calls on Dick Cheney based companies as an emergency hedge.
