Airline Stocks Take Off as Oil Prices Fall
The Company notes that when oil prices trade below their 50-day moving average, it can be a constructive development for tactical investors and traders. In the past, this technical breach has often signaled easing inflationary pressures and improving cost structures across multiple sectors, particularly commercial aviation.
Airline stocks have responded strongly to the reduced fuel-price pressure. Shares of Delta Air Lines and United Airlines have posted significant gains, [2] reflecting renewed optimism around profitability as carriers benefit from stable travel demand and lower input costs.
“We have long believed in the resilience of global air travel and the opportunities created by commodity cycles,” said Frank Holmes, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Investment Officer of U.S. Global Investors. “When oil prices drop below the 50-day moving average, it serves as a clear positive signal for tactical investors and traders. We see genuine fundamental improvement ahead, not just short-term sentiment.”
The Company continues to monitor these dynamics closely through its specialized funds and the use of its Smart Beta 2.0 quant investment strategy for thematic products. Its U.S. Global Jets ETF (NYSE: JETS) provides investors access to the global airline industry, including airline operators, manufacturers and online travel agencies.

Performance data quoted above is historical. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Results reflect the reinvestment of dividends and other earnings. For a portion of periods, the fund had expense limitations, without which returns would have been lower. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data quoted. The principal value and investment return of an investment will fluctuate so that your shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance does not include the effect of any direct fees described in the fund’s prospectus which, if applicable, would lower your total returns. Performance quoted for periods of one year or less is cumulative and not annualized. Obtain performance data current to the most recent month-end at www.usfunds.com.
Investing involves risk, including the possible loss of principal. Shares of any ETF are bought and sold at market price (not NAV), may trade at a discount or premium to NAV and are not individually redeemed from the funds. Brokerage commissions will reduce returns.
Because the funds concentrate their investments in specific industries, the funds may be subject to greater risks and fluctuations than a portfolio representing a broader range of industries. The funds are non-diversified, meaning they may concentrate more of their assets in a smaller number of issuers than diversified funds. The funds invest in foreign securities which involve greater volatility and political, economic and currency risks and differences in accounting methods. These risks are greater for investments in emerging markets. The funds may invest in the securities of smaller-capitalization companies, which may be more volatile than funds that invest in larger, more established companies.
The performance of the funds may diverge from that of the index. Because the funds may employ a representative sampling strategy and may also invest in securities that are not included in the index, the funds may experience tracking error to a greater extent than funds that seek to replicate an index. The funds are not actively managed and may be affected by a general decline in market segments related to the index.
Airline Companies may be adversely affected by a downturn in economic conditions that can result in decreased demand for air travel and may also be significantly affected by changes in fuel prices, labor relations and insurance costs.
Foreign and emerging market investing involves special risks such as currency fluctuation and less public disclosure, as well as economic and political risk. By investing in a specific geographic region, such as China and/or Taiwan, a regional ETFs returns and share price may be more volatile than those of a less concentrated portfolio.
Cargo Companies may be adversely affected by downturn in economic conditions that can result in decreased demand for sea shipping and freight. All opinions expressed and data provided are subject to change without notice. Some of these opinions may not be appropriate to every investor.
