When airline stocks come off a bottom, they come off fast and big. And I think that’s what we’re going to see over the next few quarters of 2022. Which means it’s time to buy. I could be early but the extreme volatility of stocks in the sector means that if you wait too long, you’ll miss the juiciest gains.

What’s happened since then? The odds of conflict have climbed
