For the argument of averaging down i would wait until the real bear is in town to obtain KQ at its lowest. All the same this share requires a 5-10 year horizon to make worthwhile gains.
But my question is; Who do you reckon are the two major shareholders that the senate committee mentioned have been buying KQ shares in bulk as the price has been tanking??

IFC 143 million shares and KLM 348 million shares

was it two major shareholders or two individuals?
There are only two emotions in the stock market, fear and hope. The problem is, you hope when you should fear and fear when you should hope

It's much better to put you money in a firm that grows WITHOUT bailouts (or access to bailouts) vs one that can be lax thanks to (potential) bailouts.
The bailouts don't help shareholders because the cash goes to pay off [politically connected or voters] debts.

I am not a trader. So your view/focus is different from mine. I wish you luck.
