- JetBlue has been losing money for years. It just charted a path to profitability.
- Why JetBlue Stock Popped This Morning
JetBlue shares fell nearly 10% before its Q3 2026 earnings report amid worries about bankruptcy, but rebounded strongly, rising 13.9% as of 10 a.m. ET, after the results were released. The airline lost $0.60 per share, wider than the $0.53 loss analysts expected, and its $2.8 billion in revenue also fell short of forecasts, although operating revenue rose 21%. Expenses rose 19.4%, with jet fuel costs up 57% a major pressure; without that cost, expenses would have been up only 7%. Management expects revenue to keep growing into 2027 and margins to expand in Q4 despite fuel prices forecast to be 85% higher, and targets profitability and positive free cash flow again by 2028, with at least $1 per share in earnings.
- JetBlue Jumps 11% as Higher Fares Recapture Fuel Costs; Delta and American Airlines Inch Higher
JetBlue (JBLU) shares rose 11% to $2.63 in early trading after the airline reported quarterly results, with operating revenue per available seat mile up 18.4% from a year earlier on strong demand and higher fares. Losses widened as fuel costs climbed, but higher fares recovered most of that increase, and management expects its fourth-quarter operating margin to improve year over year. A day earlier, the stock had fallen sharply when creditors hired restructuring advisers; the airline said it has the liquidity and financing options to reach its profitability targets. Delta (DAL) rose 0.9% to $79.88 and American Airlines (AAL) rose 1% to $12.35, while the JETS ETF gained 0.9% and the SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY) gained 0.3%. The article frames the bull case as higher fares continuing to offset fuel costs, and the bear case as ongoing losses and creditor scrutiny.
- Why JetBlue Stock Dived by Almost 10% on Monday
JetBlue (JBLU) shares fell nearly 10% on Monday after The Wall Street Journal reported that a group of senior creditors, not named in the report, had engaged financial advisor PJT Partners and law firm Akin. The article notes the airline carries heavy debt: long-term borrowings topped $8.8 billion at the end of June, against slightly over $2 billion in cash and short-term investments, while the market cap stands at $894 million. A JetBlue representative told the newspaper the company is focused on growing revenue and becoming profitable. JetBlue moved its third-quarter results forward to Monday afternoon, and the stock rose about 10% in after-hours trading. The author says the post-earnings rise may not last, and describes the company as facing significant financial challenges and high restructuring risk.

JetBlue Airways shares fell 16% to $2.22 after a creditor group preparing for a possible restructuring hired restructuring advisers, according to a Wall Street Journal report; the group includes holders of senior bonds and a first-lien loan. Those bonds, backed by collateral tied to the loyalty program, have fallen to record lows. JetBlue has not commented on the hirings, and its CEO said in April the company was not considering bankruptcy this year. Meanwhile, United Airlines rose 3% to $100.75, Delta Air Lines rose 2% to $78.19, and the U.S. Global Jets ETF gained 0.8%. The article points to JetBlue's third-quarter 2026 report as the next key test.

- How Microsoft, Coca-Cola And Amazon Are Adapting Their Offices For AI Age
Workplace and real estate executives at Microsoft, Citadel, Amazon and Coca-Cola said AI is pushing companies to move offices away from isolated desks toward open, collaborative spaces. Coca-Cola uses AI for internal data and ad creation, Microsoft's workplace team uses it to render proposed workspaces, and Amazon's real estate team said its AI usage rose from roughly 7% in January to over 90% this month. An October Workday report, based on a survey of more than 6,000 employees and business leaders worldwide, found 40% expect AI to boost productivity while 28% expect it to reduce headcount. Microsoft is offering voluntary buyouts to about 60,000 employees, more than a quarter of its global workforce, on top of the 4,800 layoffs announced in July, while Amazon cut 14,000 corporate jobs last year and plans to cut as many as 30,000 more. Citadel has not cut jobs because of AI and is building two headquarters towers in Miami and New York totaling 3.5M SF.

Capital expenditures reached $45.2 billion, mostly on short-lived assets such as memory chips and storage, and the company expects more than $50 billion in the final quarter of 2026, bringing full-year spending to $170 billion.
- Hands-on with Apple's first touchscreen laptop: Touch is totally optional
Apple unveiled its first touchscreen MacBook Pro models at an event in Los Angeles. They still run macOS, and CNBC found touch fully optional, since the trackpad and keyboard remain the main inputs and the interface looks largely unchanged apart from tweaks such as an enlarged red window button. Apple says its software converts each touch into a standard click, and that third-party developers such as Microsoft and Adobe will enlarge their touch targets. The Apple logo on the lid lights up, the first Apple laptop to do so since the 2017 MacBook Air. Prices start at $2,899 for the 14-inch model and at least $3,399 for the larger one.
- NVDA Stock Edges Down On DOJ Interest In $12.9 Billion Hugging Face Acquisition
Nvidia shares slipped 1% on Wednesday after reports that the U.S. Department of Justice asked how its planned acquisition of Hugging Face could affect AI competition, including whether Nvidia could control a key distribution point for AI models and tools. The questions add to a years-long antitrust probe of Nvidia that began under former President Joe Biden and reportedly covers its acquisitions, investments, sales practices and whether it has pressured customers, with past deals such as SchedMD, Groq's licensing deal and Run.ai also examined. Nvidia announced in early September that it agreed to buy Hugging Face for about $12.93 billion, including roughly $11.9 billion payable to investors and an equity-based retention program of up to about $1 billion for employees. Jensen Huang has pledged that the platform will remain open to models, frameworks, clouds and computing platforms across the industry, and that Nvidia's chips will not be required to use it. The deal is expected to close in the first half of 2027.
- Google slumps amid fears of AI overspending
Alphabet, Google's parent company, saw its shares fall as much as 9% after hours after quarterly sales and profits missed Wall Street estimates, amid worries about AI overspending. Google spent $51.3bn between July and September, up from $44.9bn in the prior quarter, and reported negative free cash flow of $9.1bn, the second negative quarter since it listed more than 20 years ago. Earnings were $2.12 a share against expectations of about $3, weighed down by an $8.7bn loss on its equity investments including a large SpaceX stake, while revenue rose 25% to $127.6bn, slightly below the roughly $128bn analysts forecast. Microsoft, by contrast, rose as much as 6.4% after hours on stronger cloud performance, with revenue up 19% to $92.3bn and Azure sales up 48%. Separately, Anthropic has filed for a New York IPO that could become the world's largest ever, with a target valuation of around $1.5tn to $2tn, and plans to open shares to retail investors in the UK and parts of continental Europe through RetailBook.
