The read, from its own figures
What its numbers say
- DAL closes above its 50-day average ($80.49), and the 50-day sits above the 200-day ($76.76): on both averages the chart reads as an uptrend.
- At $83.08, DAL is 13.2% below its 1-year high of $95.68, set on July 2, 2026, and 51.0% above its 1-year low of $55.03 (November 4, 2025).
- Over the past month DAL fell 1.2%, from $84.09 to $83.08.
- DAL trades at 16.6x its last twelve months of earnings and 11.4x the next twelve months' estimate, so analysts expect earnings 45.7% higher.
- Its P/E is 5.6% above the 15.7x median of the 2 other airlines companies we track (UAL, LUV).
- DAL's 30-day volatility, 35.1% a year, works out to a typical daily move of about 2.2%.
- Yahoo Finance puts its beta at 1.42: over five years of monthly returns, DAL moved about 1.42% for each 1% move of the S&P 500.
What would change the read
- A close under the 50-day average, $80.49 (−3.1% from the last close), would turn the read to a pullback; under the 200-day, $76.76 (−7.6%), the longer rise is in question.
- A close above $95.68 (+15.2%) would be a new 1-year high; below $55.03 (−33.8%), a new 1-year low.
How it is computed
- Prices are Yahoo Finance's daily candles for DAL, the same ones the chart below draws; the P/E, forward P/E and beta are Yahoo Finance quote fields.
- The averages are simple means of the last 50 and 200 closes; the 1-year high and low are the highest high and lowest low of the last 252 sessions; the 30-day volatility is the standard deviation of the past month's daily returns, annualized with the square root of 252.
- Peers are the other companies Yahoo Finance files under airlines among the assets we track, not a full industry screen; the median counts those with a positive P/E.
