Aercap's Volume Slumps 38.65% to 427th Rank Amid Downgrade and Valuation Dilemma

On September 3, 2025, Aercap (AER) traded with a volume of $0.24 billion, a 38.65% drop from the previous day, ranking 427th in market activity. The stock closed at $124.28, down 0.11%.

Aercap’s stock was downgraded to a “Buy” from “Strong Buy” following a technical analysis review. The price remains within a horizontal trading range, with a potential breakout above $124.46 expected to trigger a bullish signal. Key support levels are identified at $123.30 and $114.46. A “Golden Star Signal” in January 2025 highlighted a rare alignment of moving averages and price, historically preceding strong gains.

Analysts issued a “Moderate Buy” consensus based on nine ratings, including seven “Buy,” one “Hold,” and one “Sell.” The average 12-month price target is $122.38, indicating a 9.13% upside from current levels. The stock’s P/E ratio of 8.04 is significantly lower than the S&P 500 average, while its PEG ratio of 2.22 suggests potential overvaluation. Short interest has declined by 1.52%, reflecting improved investor sentiment.

Backtesting indicates a 90% probability of AER trading between $109.99 and $126.68 over the next three months. A breakout above $124.46 could extend gains, but a decline below $123.30 may trigger selling pressure. The 12-month average fair opening price is projected at $124.28, aligning with the current closing price.
