United's Stock Price- Another Tilton Failure
When United exited Bankruptcy, its stock price was $40.83 a share.
On August 8th, its stock price was $11.13 a share.
That’s a loss of 73% to shareholders. Over the same period, Continental’s share price declined 11% and Southwest’s share price dropped a mere 3%.
Instead of holding himself accountable, Glenn Tilton continues to blame external factors while creating additional wealth for himself.
It’s time for Glenn Tilton to go.

Another financial failure of the Tilton regime is the lack of fuel hedges. One would think that having spent 20 plus years in the oil industry Tilton would have had a leg up on the other CEO's. But he has always been to interested in mergers and enriching himself then running a profitable and successful airline.
