Citigroup Maintains Neutral on JetBlue Airways, Lowers Price Target to $4.25

A better-than-expected U.S. jobs report for March brought renewed focus on some sector-specific <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs">exchange-traded funds, or ETFs</a>. 
Healthcare, transportation, and food retail are specific examples of how the labor market&#8217;s resilience is presenting selective opportunity in the face of wider skepticism about inflation and trade tensions.
The American economy created 228,000 jobs in March, well exceeding Wall Street&#8217;s <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/04/04/jobs-report-march-2025-.html">forecast </a>of 140,000 and exceeding the 12-month average of 158,000, as reported in <a href="https://www.bls.gov/news.release/empsit.nr0.htm">data </a>issued by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. Hiring was strongest in healthcare, transportation and warehousing, and food and beverage stores—categories in which ETF exposure may be timely for investors.

Health care remained a bedrock of job growth, adding 54,000 jobs during March. This was consistent with the industry&#8217;s 12-month average. Employment additions were dispersed across ambulatory services (+20,000), hospitals (+17,000), and nursing and residential care facilities (+17,000).
The Health Care Select Sector SPDR ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLV#NYSE">XLV</a>) is one possible beneficiary of this trend. The fund is diversified with about 29.26% <a href="https://www.ssga.com/us/en/intermediary/etfs/the-health-care-select-sector-spdr-fund-xlv">exposure </a>to pharmaceuticals, 23.35% to healthcare providers and services, 22.39% to healthcare equipment and supplies, and some exposure to biotech (16.33%) and life sciences tools (8.7%).
Transportation and warehousing employment increased by 23,000 jobs, more than twice the 12-month average increase of 12,000. The majority of the gain was in couriers and messengers (+16,000) and truck transportation (+10,000), offset in part by a loss in warehousing and storage employment (-9,000).
The SPDR S&amp;P Transportation ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XTN#NYSE">XTN</a>), which follows a broad group of U.S. transportation companies such as airlines, trucking, and logistics companies, may experience investor demand in light of better labor market trends within the sector. Fedex Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FDX#NYSE">FDX</a>), Joby Aviation Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JOBY#NYSE">JOBY</a>), and JetBlue Airways Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JBLU#NASDAQ">JBLU</a>) are among its top holdings.
Retail employment rose by 24,000 jobs in March, with food and beverage retailers adding 21,000 positions as workers returned from a strike. While retail hiring has remained largely flat over the past year, the March boost provides a short-term lift.
Invesco Food &amp; Beverage ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PBJ#NYSE">PBJ</a>) provides access to 30 companies that produce and distribute food and beverage items. PBJ has 62 basis points of fee expense and the prospect of offering a defensive sector bet under conditions of macro uncertainty.
Though the jobs report is a sign of strength, it has qualifications. Unemployment expanded to 4.2%, just above the forecast 4.1%, because the labor force participation rate increased. Also, the mean hourly earnings expanded 0.3% from last month, but the year-over-year wage growth slowed to 3.8%, the lowest since July of 2024.
The positive news comes amid increased economic anxiety, with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/tariffs">recently introduced tariffs by the Trump administration</a> and retaliatory measures from China fueling worries over inflation and a slowdown.
Nevertheless, the resilience of the labor market in the core sectors provides a silver lining for shareholders. With specific exposure, ETFs such as XLV, XTN, and PBJ offer a method to ride sectoral momentum while weathering more general macroeconomic headwinds.

Analyst <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst/58485285ee7bf6000154d235/jamie-baker">Jamie Baker</a> of JPMorgan trimmed estimates for several U.S. airlines for the second quarter.
Delta Air Lines Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DAL#NYSE">DAL</a>)
<ul>
<li>Rating: Overweight</li>
<li>Price Target: $83</li>
</ul>
Delta remains the "industry leader among full-service airlines," Baker wrote in the note. Before COVID-19, the company generated the highest margins among peers, which was "at least partly structural," and its balance sheet allowed it to be under less strain than others during the pandemic downturn, he stated.
After COVID-19, Delta witnessed "industry-leading loyalty economics, international travel tailwinds and robust premium product demand, trends we think will continue for the foreseeable future," the analyst said.
American Airlines Group Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAL#NASDAQ">AAL</a>)
Rating: Overweight
Price Target: $26
While American Airlines&#8217; balance sheet issues remain, "execution on deleveraging has effectively removed significant overhang, with the lowest capital spend of DAL and UAL in the near term providing runway for further improvement," Baker wrote.
American Airlines stands to benefit from the demand recovery being led by international travel, which continues to accelerate more than domestic, he added.

JetBlue Airways Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JBLU#NASDAQ">JBLU</a>) 
<ul>
<li>Rating: Neutral</li>
<li>Price Target: $6</li>
</ul>
JetBlue has the ability to move past its failed acquisition of Spirit Airlines (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SAVEQ#OTC">SAVEQ</a>) and "recapture lost margin ground on Legacy carriers," the analyst stated.
"JBLU possesses all the tailwinds currently benefitting the sector: premium product, meaningful loyalty, and international travel, albeit all to a significantly lesser degree than the Big 3 of DAL, UAL and AAL," he further wrote.
Southwest Airlines Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LUV#NYSE">LUV</a>)
<ul>
<li>Rating: Underweight</li>
<li>Price Target: $30</li>
</ul>
Southwest Airlines has "the industry's deepest track record of profitability, the highest quality balance sheet, and a loyal customer base," Baker said.
He added that the company faces operational issues and carriers with premium and international exposure should outperform Southwest Airlines in the near term.
United Airlines Holdings Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UAL#NASDAQ">UAL</a>)
<ul>
<li>Rating: Overweight</li>
<li>Price Target: $133</li>
</ul>
United Airlines "possesses exposure to the strongest industry tailwinds, primarily robust demand for international travel and premium products," the analyst wrote.
"With Legacy airlines widening the outperformance gap over LCCs (low-cost carriers), we expect trends to continue to favor the Big 3 (DAL, UAL, AAL) in the medium term," he further stated.
Price Action: At the time of publication on Monday:
<ul>
<li>Delta Air Lines shares declined by 0.16% to $37.19.</li>
<li>American Airlines rose by 1.56% to $9.61.</li>
<li>JetBlue Airways rose by 2.92% to $4.06.</li>

The Analyst Verdict: JetBlue Airways In The Eyes Of 5 Experts

B of A Securities analyst Andrew Didora maintains JetBlue Airways (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JBLU#NASDAQ">JBLU</a>) with a Underperform and lowers the price target from $5.25 to $4.25.

JetBlue Airways Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JBLU#NASDAQ">JBLU</a>) flashed <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/death-cross">a Death Cross</a>, and investors are bucking up for what's next. 
The ominous technical pattern — where the 50-day simple moving average falls below the 200-day simple moving average — is often a harbinger of prolonged bearish momentum.
Given JetBlue's already steep decline, this signals more turbulence ahead.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">JetBlue Stock&#8217;s Rough Descent</h2>
JetBlue stock has plunged nearly 30% over the past year, with a staggering 35% drop year to date. The past month alone has erased nearly 26% of its value, making it one of the hardest-hit airline stocks. The numbers don't lie: JetBlue stock, at $4.78, is below its five-day, 20-day and 50-day exponential moving averages.
Technicals paint a grim picture:
<ul>
<li>JetBlue stock's eight-day simple moving average (SMA) sits at $5.20, well above its current price &#8211; a bearish signal.</li>
<li>The 20-day SMA at $5.47 and the 50-day SMA at $6.24 further confirm the downward momentum.</li>
<li>The 200-day SMA at $6.28 suggests JetBlue stock has a long way to go before recovery.</li>
<li>A Relative Strength Index (RSI) of 29.94 places JetBlue stock firmly in oversold territory, hinting that selling pressure may be overextended.</li>
<li>Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) at a negative 0.4 reinforces the bearish sentiment.</li>
</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Bottoming Out Or More Pain To Come?</h2>
JetBlue stock hit a fresh 52-week low of $4.44 on April 1, and investors are left wondering if this is rock bottom or just another stop on the way down. The stock is undeniably weak, but there's a glimmer of hope—buying pressure is beginning to emerge, potentially laying the groundwork for a bullish reversal.
For now, the Death Cross cements JetBlue stock&#8217;s bearish trend, but with RSI in oversold territory, contrarian investors may see an opportunity. Is this the moment to go bullish, or will JetBlue remain stuck on the tarmac? 
The coming weeks will determine whether this turbulence is just temporary &#8211; or the sign of a long-haul downturn.

JetBlue Stock's Death Cross: Turbulence Ahead Or A Buying Opportunity?

A 10% decline in Canadian travel may result in 2 million fewer visits and $2.1 billion in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/travel">lost spending to the U.S.</a> 
That&#8217;s according to Goldman Sachs analyst Lizzie Dove, citing <a href="https://www.ustravel.org/press/potential-results-decline-canadian-travel-united-states">data</a> from the U.S. Travel Association. Dove recently conducted a deep dive into Canadian tourist exposure for airlines, cruises, lodging, and theme parks.
Canada, she notes, accounts for 26% of U.S. international tourism. In March — three months after President Donald Trump dissed then-Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau by calling him "governor" and Canada as "the 51st state" — there was an 11% year-over-year decline in tourism. 
A &#8220;pullback in Canadian tourism is the most likely channel to create a modest drag on US GDP,&#8221; Dove wrote. 
In 2024, approximately 20.24 million Canadian tourists visited the U.S., making up over a quarter of international air travel. Mexico followed with around 17 million visitors. 
U.S. airlines have limited exposure to Canadian transborder markets, with United Airlines Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UAL#NASDAQ">UAL</a>) having the highest at 1.4% of total flights. 
Carriers like Allegiant Travel Co. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ALGT#NASDAQ">ALGT</a>), Frontier, Southwest, and Spirit do not operate direct routes to Canada but may still feel demand softness in border cities, said the analyst.

Allegiant, for instance, serves U.S. border cities that rely on Canadian travelers, with these routes comprising 1.6% of its 2024 flights.
Florida, California, Nevada, New York, and Texas are top destinations for Canadian tourists, meaning airlines operating heavily in these states could see an impact. 
JetBlue Airways Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JBLU#NASDAQ">JBLU</a>) has 58% of its capacity in key Canadian tourist cities, though a large portion of this is tied to New York, which only accounts for 13% of Canadian visits.
United and Allegiant have recently reported weaker demand from Canadian travelers. In response, United accelerated the retirement of 21 aircraft. 
The overall U.S.-Canada air travel market has seen route cuts at twice the rate of non-Canada flights, with 210 basis points of Canadian growth being slashed since January. 
Allegiant, despite not flying to Canada, reduced flights from Plattsburgh by 20 percentage points due to weaker demand from Canadian travelers, significantly more than the 4.4-point cut to its broader network. However, reductions were smaller in Bellingham and Niagara Falls, at 1.7 and 2.0 points, respectively.
U.S. hotel corporations have minimal exposure to Canadian tourism, despite the high volume of Canadian visitors. Hyatt Hotels Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/H#NYSE">H</a>) has the highest exposure among major hotel chains, while Wyndham Hotels &amp; Resorts Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WH#NYSE">WH</a>) and Choice Hotels International Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CHH#NYSE">CHH</a>) are the least affected due to their reliance on drive-to bookings.
Wyndham sees only 1% of its U.S. room bookings from Canadian travelers. Over 90% of guests drive to its hotels. Similarly, Marriott International Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MAR#NASDAQ">MAR</a>) estimates just 1% of U.S. room nights come from Canada. Some 96% of its bookings originate from domestic travelers.
Hyatt, with a stronger focus on luxury and resort properties, derives approximately 2% of its U.S. bookings from Canadian visitors. Hilton Worldwide Holdings Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HLT#NYSE">HLT</a>) also sees 1-1.5% of its U.S. room nights booked by Canadians, with 2% of its total rooms located in Canada.
Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Ltd. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NCLH#NYSE">NCLH</a>) has the highest exposure to Canadian tourism among cruise operators, though overall reliance remains low. 
An estimated 5% of NCLH's revenue comes from Canadian travelers, followed by Royal Caribbean Group (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RCL#NYSE">RCL</a>) at 4% and Carnival Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CCL#NYSE">CCL</a>) at 3.5%.
Hotel companies rely more heavily on domestic and business travelers, while cruise lines see slightly higher engagement from Canadian tourists.
Florida saw approximately 6 million international visitors in 2023, with around 1.3 million coming from Canada. Theme parks with high international attendance could feel the impact of a decline in Canadian visitors.
Comcast Corp.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CMCSA#NASDAQ">CMCSA</a>) Universal theme parks are the most exposed, with around 30% of attendance coming from international tourists. 
Walt Disney Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIS#NYSE">DIS</a>) typically sees international visitors comprise between the high teens to low 20% of total guests, while United Parks &amp; Resorts Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PRKS#NYSE">PRKS</a>) has lower exposure at around 7%, down from pre-pandemic double-digit levels.
The financial impact extends beyond ticket sales. International visitors tend to spend more on park-related purchases, including hotel stays and in-park amenities, Dove said.
