Traders are cautiously optimistic ahead of the all-important payrolls report, with the index futures narrowly mixed in early Friday. The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41177060/port-strike-ends-workers-return-to-work-friday">suspension of the Longshoremen&#8217;s strike</a> removes one of the overhangs even as the Middle East tensions rage unabated. The September job gains could have a big impact on the near-term direction of the market.
&#8220;Payroll data will be closely watched as the sentiment is now that the Fed has become less focused on inflation and more on employment,&#8221; said fund manager Louis Navellier. A BofA note highlighted that the S&amp;P 500 futures have been more reactive to non-farm payroll data than any other economic data in recent years, a screenshot of the note shared by a financial writer on X showed.

Cues From Last Session:
U.S. stocks showed nervousness throughout Thursday&#8217;s session before closing lower, with geopolitical tensions, the dockworkers&#8217; strike and mixed economic data weighing down on sentiment. While a bigger-than-expected increase in jobless claims stirred anxiety about the monthly jobs data, the Institute for Supply Management&#8217;s stronger-than-expected service sector purchasing managers&#8217; index tempered expectations concerning a bigger cut.
The Nasdaq Composite oscillated back and forth in the morning session but languished mostly below the unchanged line in the afternoon before ending marginally lower. This is despite IT and communication services posting moderate gains. The broader S&amp;P 500 Index traded mostly in the red and ended modestly lower, with consumer discretionary, consumer staple, healthcare, material and real estate stocks dragging the index lower. On the other hand, energy stocks posted solid gains. The index settled at a two-week low. 
The 30-stock Dow Jones Industrial Average underperformed as it settled down 0.44% at a one-week low.

Insights From Analysts:
Comerica Chief Economist Bill Adams said he expects the Fed to cut rates by 25 basis points in November, December, January and March and then move toward quarterly rate cuts for the rest of the next year. The economist noted that inflation is slowing to near the Fed&#8217;s 2% target, largely due to lower energy prices. Core inflation, though higher than the headline inflation, could slow due to downward pressure on durable goods and used autos persist and a slower increase in housing costs, he said.
Adams sees the Fed funds rate to be in the range of 3%-3.25% by the end of 2025. That said, the economist does not rule out a faster pace of rate cuts if the economy weakens materially, or a slower rate cut if the large deficit or wars in oil-exporting regions cause inflation to rebound.
Navellier weighed in on the near-term trajectory of the market in a note sent to clients on Thursday. &#8220;Funds flows into equities are likely to remain positive, at least until there is a sustained pullback, which hasn&#8217;t happened since &#8217;22,&#8221; he said.
The fund manager noted that the AI theme got a boost after OpenAI&#8217;s new funding round, which raised $6.6 billion from a long list of well-known investors, valuing the company at $157 billion. Also, Nvidia Corp.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) CEO Jensen Huang&#8217;s comments that demand for the company&#8217;s new Blackwell chips is &#8220;insane,&#8221; is a positive for the sector, he said.
 &#8220;AI adoption remains one of the fastest-growing new technologies ever and continues to promise big gains in productivity, though the timing of meaningful cash flow gains still remains uncertain,&#8221; he added.

Palantir, Amazon, Meta, Spirit Airlines, Tesla: Why These 5 Stocks Are On Investors' Radars Today

Spirit Airlines Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SAVE#NYSE">SAVE</a>) is reportedly in discussions with bondholders regarding the terms of a potential bankruptcy filing. The budget airline is exploring restructuring options <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/03/37455281/jetblue-spirit-airlines-shares-are-moving-monday-whats-going-on">following a failed merger</a> with JetBlue Airways Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JBLU#NASDAQ">JBLU</a>).
What Happened: Spirit is considering a Chapter 11 filing as it grapples with significant financial challenges. The airline is also looking into restructuring its balance sheet through an out-of-court transaction, <a href="https://www.wsj.com/articles/spirit-airlines-in-talks-with-bondholders-over-terms-of-potential-bankruptcy-filing-fdd23fae">reported</a> The Wall Street Journal on Thursday, citing people familiar with the matter.
However, according to the report, recent discussions have primarily focused on securing an agreement with bondholders and creditors to support a bankruptcy filing. 
Spirit is facing mounting pressure due to its $3.3 billion debt load, which includes over $1.1 billion in secured bonds maturing within a year. The airline must refinance or extend these notes by Oct. 21, as per its credit card processor&#8217;s deadline. 
CEO Ted Christie mentioned in August that the company is in active discussions with bondholders&#8217; advisers to address these maturities.
&#8220;Before we get into the results, I want to note that we are engaged in productive conversations with the advisors of our bondholders to address the upcoming debt maturities. Because those conversations are ongoing, we are not going to go into detail or take any questions on this topic or speculate on potential outcomes. Needless to say, it is a priority, and we are focused on securing the best outcome for the business as quickly as possible, while staying focused on driving performance and implementing our new travel options and elevated guest experience," Christie said in the August earnings call. 
Spirit&#8217;s financial woes have been exacerbated by its inability to turn an annual profit since before the COVID-19 pandemic. The airline&#8217;s operational footprint is shrinking, with plans to reduce capacity by nearly 20% in the fourth quarter. 
Additionally, Spirit has been affected by the recall of Pratt &amp; Whitney engines, grounding part of its fleet and leading to pilot furloughs.

Why It Matters: The potential bankruptcy filing by Spirit Airlines comes in the wake of a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/03/37455281/jetblue-spirit-airlines-shares-are-moving-monday-whats-going-on">terminated merger agreement</a> with JetBlue Airways. 
The two companies had initially planned a merger valued at $3.8 billion, which was expected to create a strong low-fare competitor in the airline industry. However, the merger was called off in March due to unmet conditions, impacting Spirit&#8217;s strategic plans. 
Meanwhile, JetBlue has been focusing on its turnaround strategy, bolstered by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40779100/air-travel-demand-and-lower-fuel-costs-to-propel-jetblues-turnaround-analyst-upgrades-stock">rising air travel demand and lower fuel costs</a>. Analysts have upgraded JetBlue&#8217;s stock, projecting a significant liquidity position by 2026.
Spirit Airlines has also <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/40043751/whats-going-on-with-spirit-airlines-stock">faced regulatory challenges</a>, such as a temporary block on a rule requiring airlines to disclose fees upfront. This legal development briefly boosted Spirit&#8217;s stock in July.
Price Action: Spirit Airlines Inc. stock closed at $2.24 on Thursday, down 3.45% for the day. In after-hours trading, the stock plummeted by 30.38% to $1.56. Year to date, Spirit Airlines has fallen significantly, down 86.30%.
Meanwhile, JetBlue Airways Corporation ended the day at $6.39, down 2.74%. In after-hours trading, the stock rose by 4.85%. Year to date, JetBlue has gained 21.25%, according to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

Aether has developed a breakthrough technology that utilizes a diverse array of waste feedstocks to produce sustainable liquid fuels at a lower cost and greater scale than existing approaches. The agreement creates a pathway for Aether to supply JetBlue with sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) when commercial production begins. &nbsp;
The MOU extends Aether's relationship with JetBlue that began when its venture capital subsidiary, JetBlue Ventures, invested in <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=F1GncVvisLoFfa7gzyrMMSQAqoVxa8op9wXE_U3ecFYlpMzpC_7cs9lPRrZ51S9Lm2tfMI2anhaHLh27j5r5C45v1WfZYvjHqXc8hDCEaWmNtyKa9Lu80qkkhc0-E70lByS9aou_MZaBx6MsXh_JwdYKeRxib_7Z0cRh9RsyfmVpyxNriJdpJfA2AK6wxQrVwUYKJHjBltsmdPPhPxgnMtjeYyPGATQ8HFr0jZcX3KQ=">Aether's convertible note and Series A financings</a>.
Aether's technology, known as <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=F1GncVvisLoFfa7gzyrMMYhZcmdJO3dKEJH7JjS31XpkBKaAcpeESDxiRq2zrakMDOLeJjUTRJckBjSAJDKh_ujY2YSjpoWYskbb1tfOK9M=">Aether Aurora</a>&#x2122;, uses a range of waste carbon feedstocks that do not compete with food or feed value chains. This critical "feedstock flexibility" differentiator enables the large-scale deployment of Aether Aurora technology and contributes to the breakthrough economics that are essential for sustainable liquid fuels, by enabling the conversion of numerous abundant waste carbon feedstocks into jet fuel. This overcomes the supply constraints faced by many other SAF production processes that rely on a limited type of often-scarce or cost-constrained feedstocks.

Aether Fuels Signs MOU With JetBlue, Creating A Pathway For Aether To Supply JetBlue With Sustainable Aviation Fuel When Commercial Production Begins

Citigroup analyst Stephen Trent maintains JetBlue Airways (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JBLU#NASDAQ">JBLU</a>) with a Neutral and raises the price target from $5.75 to $6.

Citigroup Maintains Neutral on JetBlue Airways, Raises Price Target to $6

BofA Securities analyst Andrew G. Didora upgraded JetBlue Airways Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JBLU#NASDAQ">JBLU</a>) from <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/JBLU/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">Underperform to Neutral</a>, setting a price target of $6 from $3.
Despite improving revenue trends, Didora acknowledged that JetBlue Airways&#8217; balance sheet remains challenged. The re-rating reflects fundamentals and a favorable industry backdrop.
That said, contemplating JetBlue Airways&#8217; <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40347090/whats-going-on-with-jetblue-shares-tuesday" rel="noreferrer noopener">August debt transaction</a>, Didora forecasted a nearly $3.7 billion liquidity position in 2026, almost 90% above 2019 levels, which he noted provides the company time to execute its turnaround plan.
The price target is 6.0x Didora&#8217;s 2025E EBITDAR, in line with its long-term average. In his prior updates, the analyst returned to an EV/EBITDAR valuation methodology from EV/Sales as losses are decelerating from 2024-2026 at the net earnings level, driven by improving business fundamentals.
Didora noted that air travel demand, as measured by Transportation Security Administration&nbsp;(TSA) throughput, has been stable in recent weeks as domestic capacity continues to moderate, coinciding with falling fuel prices.
While the analyst noted these recent trends as an industry tailwind, he noted JetBlue Airways&#8217; positioning is further supported by ongoing self-help measures, as demonstrated by last week&#8217;s positive investor update.
In last week&#8217;s investor update, JetBlue Airways spoke to improving revenue trends, especially in Latin America, which had posed headwinds earlier this year. The airline also benefits from ongoing revenue initiatives supported by the JetForward plan.
Didora forecasts <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40735127/why-jetblue-airways-shares-are-trading-higher-today" rel="noreferrer noopener">fiscal third-quarter</a> and fiscal 2024 unit revenues of +4.2% and +0.5% from his previous +0.9%and -1.2% and flow through the latest fuel curve. The analyst raised his third-quarter, fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2025 EPS estimates to $(0.17), $(0.65), $(0.26) from $(0.49), $(1.26) and $(0.94) previously.
