United Airlines (UAL) shares are pushing higher this week as a sudden, brief reprieve in global energy markets yesterday provided much-needed relief to the airline's bottom line. Following a poor start to 2026, the airline stock now looks headed to challenge its 200-day moving average (MA), with a clear breach of the $96 level expected to accelerate bullish momentum in the days ahead.
Despite recent surge, United Airlines stock remains down more than 20% versus its year-to-date high.
