American Airlines, Sell signal under management for 7 weeks

American Airlines slips 1.3% and stays boxed between recent lows and its 50-week average

August 28, 2026

Our view last week

American Airlines drops another 6.8%, and the week brings two technical turns that matter more than the decline itself: the weekly MACD crossed below its Signal line for the first time in 15 weeks, and money flow turned negative after 13 straight weeks above zero. Both were only warning signs last week; now they've shown up. Sellers still dominate the trading, though less heavily than seven days ago, and the ADX keeps sliding: the decline continues, with conviction fading.

This week's summary

American Airlines stock is a Sell signal under management for 7 weeks, with the short now above 8% in profit. Last week brought a double technical turn — MACD crossing below Signal and money flow turning negative — and this week the stock slips just 1.3% but stays boxed in a tight corridor, rejected twice at its 50-week moving average in the 13.9 area and resting on its 7-day low in the 13.4 area. The price action confirms it: sellers still dominant, ADX declining.
