American Airlines Group, RTX, Zscaler, Delta Air Lines, and Southwest Airlines are the five Airline stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat's stock screener tool. Airline stocks are equity shares issued by publicly traded companies that operate passenger or cargo air transport services. Their prices fluctuate based on industry‐specific factors such as fuel costs, labor agreements, route capacity and travel demand, as well as broader economic conditions and regulatory or geopolitical developments. Because they are highly sensitive to external shocks—like pandemics, oil‐price swings or security events—airline stocks often exhibit pronounced cyclical volatility.
