i agree with your logic , but i moved too early i didn't see the virus saga coming back when i boughtI bought AIZ as a copy trade trying to emulate the greatest. Basically, Buffet was buying up the US airlines (Southwest Airlines etc) as the world was opening up from all the lockdowns, so I thought AIZ was one of the best local candidates, given Virgin Airlines was taken off the exchange by then and Quantas didn't seem to present a deep discount at the time. However, Buffet had sold out of the US airline stocks soon after and I felt like the one holding the bag.
but airlines ( ASX listed ones ) might be truly stuffed except maybe REX ( which i keep missing the target price on )
you have to watch Buffet carefully , with his ( well Berkshire's ) war-chest he can swing some sweet deals , convertible debt , warrants and all sorts of juicy extras .
what i will probably lose long term on AIZ i made up on the MQG-SYD divestment
maybe i should have taken the hint and sold AIZ back then ( before 2020 )
