<p>The stock price is headed toward the support level from where the bullish rally started. If the next candle can break the low of the previous candle, the AAL stock price might melt down to $12.70. On the other hand, if bulls can form a support, the stock price may witness a short-term pullback and retest $13.95.&nbsp;</p> 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="strong-why-is-american-airlines-stock-falling-strong"><strong>Why is American Airlines Stock Falling?</strong></h2> 
<p>Oil prices have been surging in recent weeks and crude futures reached their highest point since last November due to the extension of voluntary supply cuts by OPEC+ members Russia and Saudi Arabia.&nbsp;</p> 
<p>OPEC+ is now forecasting tightest oil market supply in 10 years. Rising oil prices are already having a significant effect on the airline industry, which is one of the largest consumers of fuel.&nbsp;</p> 
<p>In July, the antitrust regulators forced the breakup of American Airlines’ partnership with JetBlue Airways and now energy costs are rising. North American fuel prices are up by more than 4% in the past months.&nbsp;</p> 
<p><a href="https://www.thecoinrepublic.com/2023/08/31/aal-stock-price-prediction-will-aal-stock-hit-20-by-2023/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">American Airlines</a> does not hedge its fuel expenses which is a strategy used by the other carriers to soften the blow of unusually high oil prices in the recent past.&nbsp;</p> 
<p>There has been a drastic cut in quarter 3 earning guidance of American Airlines. The new earning guidance ranges between 20 and 30 cents, down from the previous guidance of 85 to 95 cents.</p>
