# Pre-market trend | Latam Airlines (LTM) continues to face pressure on 5/15, can it take off?

Latam Airlines fell 4.79% on Monday, reflecting the market state where airline passenger stocks are collectively under pressure, with the closing price being one of the important signal points in its downward trajectory. The trading volume was approximately $89 million, with active trading remaining strong. This indicates significant selling pressure during the day. Technically, the MACD remains in a death cross state below the zero axis, showing signs of further declines in the short term.

On the fundamental side, the recovery in airline passenger market demand has encountered obstacles, affected by uncertainties related to the pandemic and geopolitical risks, leading to passenger volume growth rates falling below expectations, which in turn affects ticket prices and profit growth potential. Additionally, rising operating costs and economic slowdown have suppressed the rapid recovery of airline profitability. Recent fluctuations in oil prices are also another factor affecting market confidence.

From a technical perspective, the current stock price continues to be constrained by the downward pressure line at $12 and is trending towards testing the psychological support area at $11, which must be protected from being breached by bearish forces. Even in short-term operations, it is necessary to pay close attention to industry trends and the upcoming revenue management guidance.

Overall, Latam Airlines may continue to be affected by many adverse factors in the short term. Unless the market shows clear support signals, investors should consider position control and risk-reward ratio allocation when building positions.
