Whirlpool Struggles While JetBlue Soars: What It Signals
Original: Whirlpool Is Struggling, JetBlue Is Soaring. What That Says About the Economy.
Barron's contrasts two major US companies moving in opposite directions: appliance maker Whirlpool is struggling while airline JetBlue is soaring. The divergence is being read as a signal about the broader economy, with consumers apparently skipping big-ticket home purchases while still spending on travel. Commentators are debating what the split says about household budgets and demand.
Why now: Investors are looking for economic signals from contrasting company performance.
