Caracas Gets Creative in Bolstering Economy as Officials Look to Offer Shares of Banco de Venezuela_我的网站

一 |     American Airlines is reporting a $545 million loss for the third quarter in contrast with the huge profits posted by its two closest rivals.American said its results were dragged down by $983 million in charges related to a new labor contract with its pilots, but United Airlines and Delta Air Lines reached similar deals with their pilots and still earned $1.1 billion each in the quarter. Labor costs at American jumped 17%, an increase of nearly $600 million, which was roughly offset by lower fuel prices than a year ago.American's revenue was roughly flat with last summer, compared with 12% and 11% increases at United and Delta.There are already concerns over rising costs for airlines as fuel prices surge at the same time that travel has begun to slow. Fuel prices are still lower than they were last year, but the loss at American could add to anxiety over burdensome costs across the industry. Citing rising fuel prices on Wednesday, United Airlines gave a surprisingly weak end-of-year forecast after a solid third quarter, sending shares major carriers lower. United also noted the suspension of its flights to Tel Aviv because of the Israel-Hamas war.American Airlines Group Inc., based in Fort Worth, Texas, said its earnings excluding special items worked out to 38 cents per share. Analysts expected 25 cents per share, according to a FactSet survey.Revenue of $13.48 billion was slightly below Wall Street forecasts.American, which took on new debt during the pandemic, said it paid down $1.4 billion in debt during the quarter.Shares of American rose about 2% before the opening bell. Company executives will discuss the results with analysts and reporters later Thursday.。    The government of Venezuela is set to offer stakes in the state-owned Banco de Venezuela and telecom service provider CANTV in the coming weeks, it’s being reported.,Announcing the Banco de Venezuela public offering at a news conference in June, Vice President Delcy Rodriguez said the move would “give impetus to the national stock market” and “open the doors” of the enterprises “to national and international investors in local currency or foreign currency.”,“I think an important time has come for the Venezuelan Stock Market,” she said, stressing that while Venezuelans are “taking the first step with the Bank of Venezuela… the telecommunications company CANTV is coming soon.”,The public offering is the latest in a series of moves by authorities in the Caribbean nation to correct the course of their ailing economy. In late July, Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro signed a law designating a number of Special Economic Zones in the country, with an eye towards ultimately transcending “the oil rentier model.”,Venezuela has been plagued for years by shortages, extreme inflation, and other serious issues caused in large part by Washington’s unilateral sanctions regime aimed at crippling the country’s economy.,To make matters worse, last week, the British Supreme Court ruled that approximately $2 billion in Venezuelan gold that’s currently being held in the Bank of England belongs to opposition leader Juan Guaido, rather than the elected government.,Maduro’s administration has indicated it will appeal the decision, but it seems unlikely that authorities in Caracas will prevail, especially given the UK’s extensive history of plotting against the Venezuelan government.,While intermittent power outages continue to interfere with oil exports, there are growing signs that Venezuela may have finally turned the corner financially and could soon stand on its own feet once again. Earlier this year, the United Nations Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean forecast that the economy will grow by 5.0% this year – the highest in all of South America.,The normalization of ties with Colombia’s incoming Gustavo Petro administration will also provide ample opportunities for increased income and reduced military expenditures. Business groups on both sides of the Colombia-Venezuela border say its planned reopening – which could come as soon as this week – should provide around $1.2 billion in trade by the end of the year.。
