Volaris: Strong Buy While It's On Discount

Despite a 50% share price drop, I maintain Volaris as a Strong Buy due to its deep undervaluation and long-term growth prospects. Short-term headwinds include GTF engine issues extending to 2027, temporary demand weakness, and recent quarterly losses, but these are not permanent setbacks. Volaris' young, fuel-efficient fleet and significant stored capacity position it for strong revenue and earnings growth once operational constraints ease.
