International Consolidated Airlines Group shares are sliding after JPMorgan slashed earnings estimates for European carriers, citing a sharp jump in jet fuel costs and rising geopolitical risks in the Middle East. Investors are worried that soaring operating expenses and route disruptions will squeeze profits across the sector.
Sentiment is also hit by warnings that fuel supplies could run short within weeks if the Strait of Hormuz stays closed, a risk seen as especially serious for IAG’s UK-heavy network. These concerns have overshadowed the group’s recently strong results, dragging the stock lower as traders reassess the outlook for the coming quarters.
