NEW YORK : Wall Street stocks suffered another ugly rout on Thursday (Sept 29) as US bond yields resumed their upward climb on a bruising day for shares of Apple and other tech giants. Thursday''s economic reports included data showing a drop in weekly US jobless claims that point to a strong labor market likely to keep the Federal Reserve focused on its current policy of countering inflation. “Risky assets don’t stand a chance of a meaningful rally if the economy continues to show resilience while inflation continues to be significantly above the Fed’s funds rate,” said Oanda’s Edward Moya. The broad-based S&P 500 dropped 2.1% to 3,640.47, its lowest close since November 2020. The Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 1.5% to 29,225.61, while the tech-rich Nasdaq Composite Index tumbled 2.8% to 10,737.51. FHN Financial''s Chris Low said investors were also unnerved by market volatility in Britain after Prime Minister Liz Truss doubled down on a controversial tax cut policy that has rattled markets.

An antitrust trial on the controversial partnership between American Airlines (NASDAQ:AAL) and JetBlue Airways (NASDAQ:JBLU) kicked off on Tuesday. The partnership between the two airlines appears to have a lot at stake. Department of Justice (DOJ) lawyers believe that the partnership will lead to reduced competition and increased airfares. The partnership, which was announced in 2020, joined American Airlines and JetBlue in an alliance in Boston and New York. Incidentally, both cities are currently dominated by United Airlines (NASDAQ:UAL) and Delta Airlines (NYSE:DAL).

Government lawyers used airline executives’ own words in trying Tuesday to persuade a federal judge to kill a partnership between American Airlines and JetBlue Airways. The government argued that the deal is, in effect, a merger that will cost consumers $700 million a year in higher fares. It said JetBlue’s pending purchase of Spirit Airlines will make matters even worse for travelers. JetBlue CEO Robin Hayes was the first witness in the trial in federal district court in Boston over the federal government’s antitrust lawsuit against American and JetBlue. The airlines are coordinating schedules and sharing revenue from flights in the Northeast, including New York-area airports. Hayes was quizzed about his own previous statements criticizing joint ventures involving other airlines and a 2019 comment that the airline industry “has never been more concentrated than it is today,” which he said led to higher fares and poor service. Hayes testified that regulators had not imposed enough limits on those deals.
A Boston federal judge on Monday ruled against American Airlines Group Inc''s to force the president of rival Delta Air Lines Inc to testify at an antitrust trial starting this week, but said another executive could be compelled to appear and give testimony.

American Airlines has said of claims the onboard intercom system was broken into: "There is no Wi-Fi component to our PA systems."
Passengers on at least three separate flights say they experienced the bizarre noises on recent trips, and the airline is currently investigating.
Passengers on at least three American Airlines flights reported bizarre moaning and groaning noises from in-flight intercom systems. In a viral video, one passenger described the sound as "somewhere between an orgasm and vomiting." According to an American Airlines spokesperson, the PA systems "are hardwired and there is no external access." Passengers aboard an American Airlines flight from Los Angeles to Dallas earlier this month were thrown into a state of confusion and concern when strange noises began emanating from the plane''s public announcement system. As documented by Emerson Collins in a now viral video, a bizarre series of ominous moans and groans suddenly filled the cabin shortly before takeoff, puzzling passengers and flight attendants, and then continued for the duration of the flight. "Someone on this flight seems to have broken into the intercom system and continues to make a sound that is somewhere between an orgasm and vomiting," Collins says in the video shared on TikTok. —Emerson Collins (@ActuallyEmerson) September 23, 2022 As Collins continues to capture the bizarre series of noises, a flight attendant acknowledges them and tells passengers employees are trying to turn them off. "Ladies and gentlemen, we realize there''s an extremely irritating sound coming over the public announcements," a flight attendant says in the video. "The flight deck is trying to troubleshoot, trying to turn it off, so please be patient with us, we know this is a very odd anomaly and none of us are enjoying it." Later in the video, a flight attendant is overheard saying "I swear it''s a prank," while walking down the aisle.

And many travel cards come with extra benefits, too, from free entry into airport lounges to statement credits toward application fees for TSA PreCheck and other programs that expedite security screening at the airport. Take a look at our picks of the best travel rewards credit cards. If you’d rather have a card that offers cash-back rewards, see The Best Cash-Back Credit Cards . For each card (except premium travel cards), we’ve calculated a typical annual rebate based on spending patterns in the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics Consumer Expenditure Survey and assuming $25,000 spent on the card annually. For cards that do not waive their annual fee the first year, we’ve subtracted the annual fee from the cash value of the annual rebate.

The Federal Reserve was top of mind for investors Monday, with the central bank''s next policy decision – a likely 75 basis-point rate hike – due out Wednesday. This led to back-and-forth trading for much of the session, though the major market indexes ultimately ended in positive territory today. SEE MORE 16 Dividend Kings for Decades of Dividend Growth While the economic calendar is relatively thin over the next few days, Wall Street will see a round of housing data in the leadup to the Fed announcement. Today, that was the release of the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB)/Wells Fargo housing market index, which showed builder confidence fell 3 points in September to 46, its lowest level since spring 2020. This was the ninth straight monthly drop in the index, and came amid a "combination of elevated interest rates, persistent building material supply-chain disruptions and high home prices [that] continue to take a toll on affordability," the report stated. "We expect the other housing market releases this week (housing starts, existing home sales and building permits) will show similar weakness," says Raymond James economist Giampiero Fuentes.

Engine manufacturers are not interested in helping Boom build a supersonic powerplant, per FlightGlobal. The comments come after Rolls-Royce announced an end to its contract with Boom in early September. Travel analyst Henry Harteveldt told Insider that Boom may build its own engine, which could be advantageous. Boom Supersonic may be forced to make its own engine for its ultra-fast Overture jet. In 2020, engine manufacturer Rolls-Royce signed an "engagement agreement" with Boom to explore an engine that could power the faster-than-sound Overture , which already has orders from United and American Airlines . However, Rolls-Royce told AIN Online in early September that it has since left the table. "We''ve completed our contract with Boom and delivered various engineering studies for their Overture supersonic program," Rolls-Royce said. "After careful consideration, Rolls-Royce has determined that the commercial aviation supersonic market is not currently a priority for us and, therefore, will not pursue further work on the program at this time," the company continued. "It has been a pleasure to work with the Boom team and we wish them every success in the future." After Rolls-Royce''s comments, GE Aviation, Honeywell, and Safran Aircraft Engines have all told FlightGlobal that they are not currently interested in making a supersonic engine for Boom.

Raymond James analyst Savanthi Syth downgraded Mesa Air Group Inc (NASDAQ: MESA ) and SkyWest Inc (NASDAQ: SKYW ) to Underperform as she believes the pilot rates being established across the regional industry will diminish the earnings power of regional airlines. American Airlines Group Inc (NASDAQ: AAL ), which has about 55% of regional lift at in-house regional airlines, thought there was a cost advantage due to the lack of a margin that could significantly improve pilot pay at these entities, driving operational stability and resulting in market share gains in a lucrative market segment. This led to junior pilot pay moving closer to and, in some cases, above that of the lowest-paid mainline carriers. Also Read : Full story available on Benzinga.com
